you legend :P

i had a pump u watched me use it,

and my services? so no driving then?

[Puntoboy]

hello guys,

i'm the chap with the yellow punto with the carbon bonnet.

i was very impressed with your times at pod. quick little beasties you got there and i truely agree that you could have knocked at least .5 sec off your times if it wasn't for the track condition.

i had a major grip issue on the day and lost about 1 sec off my normal times myself.

what are the specs of your engines?

[Bibbs]

The 15.7 sec Yaris is a 1.5, 140bhp and was fairly stripped out. How about yourself?

Have to laugh at your Avvie pic, I've a honda and have yet to be worried about any Fiats :)

(there is one on the Honda forum the same, but a Honda humping a Nissan - doubt an S2k would worry a GT-R)

[Puntoboy]

mine isn't bare but its not full up either.

i've removed the back seats and put a false floor in its place.

i'm not sure what i'm running. people with the same mods as me are running about 160bhp. i need to get it on the rollers to find out for sure tho.

i've raced a few honda's and beaten them... must be the slow ones ;)

grip was the main problem on sunday. i was spinning through 1st, 2nd and 3rd, my 0-60ft time was shocking.

Yeah, aint much that'll keep up with an NSX-R .. just wish I had one.

160 aint bad for a FWD hatch ..

I've been reading that 5kg is "equivalent" to 1bhp .. Kinda makes you wonder if a load of ICE is worth it

[Puntoboy]

good job i don't have much in the way of ICE then ;)

[Chuck04]

hiya bud, that was me you are racing in the pics, the conditions that day were not great, i was fairly surprised with the outcome of our race, only a .2 of a sec difference in our times, joined punto sports earlyer (RSboy) to see who it was i was racing

spec wise, im running 118 bhp, the best time i pulled that day was a 16.4

[Puntoboy]

hello mate, i checked your email on punto sports and followed you here ;)

i should be nearer 15 dead, but i had no grip until 60ft!

16.4 is a good time tho, i'd be happy with that, how much does the standard Yaris weigh?

[Chuck04]

950 odd

id stripped mine out that day tho ( rear seats, spare parcel shelft etc) as my previous best was a 16.9 on a dry day, id like to think i could improve on 16.4 still, plenty more opions avaliable but considering the conditions that day i was very happy

[Puntoboy]

i would be too.

a standard GT weighs 1000kgs.

mines should be a little less than that.

fitting my new FMIC this week and i'll be going for a new turbo in the not so distant future. so fingers crossed for 180bhp and 200lb/ft torque.

[Chyownster]

mine was a poo time :(

[Puntoboy]

the only good times i saw were bikes, 4wd and that purple/blue 2.0 litre corsa.

[Chuck04]

i think the two best things that day was the TVR getting owned by a corsa and watching a scoobie shoot off the line sideways

[Puntoboy]

whats bhp is the T Sport standard?

what engine mods have you guys done?

[Kerby]

standard they are 105bhp and i have apexi induction kit, racing manifold, sports cat and fujitsubo back box. mine will be pushin the same as charlie as we both have the same mods so thats 118bhp. are we temptin ya? :P
