The black hatch

[Neal R19]

Yeah well that was before I fiddled with the TPS, it's much better now. It will never be spot on of course. I plan on fitting decent cams and pullies within a few months, will get it properly remapped then.

 

[Chet T16]

Ah right, good stuff

 

[Wicked Neo]

it wasn't flaming that bad tbh, about 4 times in total and only when Neal had to bump start it because it was not idling properly on the first run, a bit of fiddling with the tps and throttle stop screw sorted it out, will tell for sure on saturday on the run up to WSR, i'll follow neal from his place to the m1 and see if its still spitting fire.

[bbracer16valver]

You lengthen or shorten the bar that connects to the rear beam as appropriate.

 

[bidderman1969]

handy to know that!

Few piccies added from the weekend at Renault World Series '08

 

[The T.I.B.]

I say, nice award!!!

 

[bidderman1969]

bet it was the super duper shiny waxed bonnet that swayed the judges, lol

 

[Doc]

you'd have got first if you had used tyre shine. lol

 

[Neal R19]

Polishing and waxing is enough for me, applying cosmetic stuff to the tyres is taking things a bit too far IMO

 

[Chet T16]

What was first?

 

[Neal R19]

A Renaultsport Spider. I'd be tempted to say it looked a bit ropey to me and it was owned by one of the event staff, but that would sound like sour grapes.

 

[Chet T16]

Either way, coming second to something oddball like that is a result.

I think we need a special award for you

 

[The T.I.B.]

I think we need a 'special award' for you too.

That spider was not worthy. It was paint chipped and really nothing special. Oh apart from the RAOC sticker on the side, and the fact it was owned by the organiser and he booted one of the 19s out 'his' parking spot.

Glad you got the award Neal, and it was good to hear everyone cheering the number NINETEEN at the awards ceremony :lol:
