S2000 Indy
Had a great morning down at MK,thanks Chris,for the passenger ride,in the all new S2000,AWESOME,is a over used word,but it best describes this
car ,the torque,is unbelievable,it accelerates from 10mph in 5th gear,smoothly,all the way round to the 9000rpm red line,and the flashing red
light,screaming for another gear,so much for you taking it easy with this one Chris until you get the hang of it ,at one point on a straight,we were
accelerating in 3rd and 4th gear and breaking traction,and this was at between 80mph and 100mph great fun
Chris and his car will be available for passenger rides at Oulton park,I suggest,you get your ride booked A.S.A.P,you will not be disapointed.
My other treat that morning was when Phil asked me to take out his new demo car,powered by the gsxr 1000 K2 engine,I did not need asking twice,I was
in belted up and off,after giving the engine and R888's time to warm up,I started to push it along a little bit,and was realy suprised how
much more power it had compared to my 929 injection blade,could have something to do with the extra 750 +rpm which proved very usefull,Ive always
thought my blade could do with an extra 500rpm before it hits the rev limiter,as it l feels like it still producing power before the limiter cuts
in.anyway back to the car for a new build it felt already well sorted,with a great gearbox,this again will be one to keep an eye out for at Oulton,and
again will be available for passenger rides ,should be a great day.

Turbo kit for the S2000 Indy, Chris. Go on. Do it. Now. A turbo tends to quiten the exhaust note anyway. Do it.

Pity we missed today - sounds like you had loads of fun. Book me in for a passenger ride at Oulton Chris (If not before) It sounds like great fun.
PS. Does it make your ears bleed???

Sorry I missed that one. Was at MK this morning, but left early because I had the little lad with me. He gets board quickly. How do I book my test
ride Chris? Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!
Paul, did you see the state of that Susuki, Phil had been given a lesson in grass tracking.

Chris: Will your car be on the MK stand at Stoneleigh? Can't wait to see it.

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.
