Right! Well - we had an eventful day at Skuzzle today. By about 11am the rear diff died at around 270 at the wheels. Luckily Nick had one lying around and with some help from Rich and Nick we got it swapped in.. So here's the final result!  Looks like Cupidstunt is our winner! We can't thank Nick & Mark @ Skuzzle Motorsport enough for their hospitality and mapping wizardry, and also Rich who was a great help when we came to change the diff. We've got a video in the creation of the days events with a videographer/photographer and also MX5 owner called Alex, he's a wicked guy and massively talented at his job! But yeah, nothings broken yet since the diff! The smaller radiator held up perfectly and the intercooler is epic. For the drive home the car so far is completely savage, we can't wait to get it to Combe and 5Fest next month! |

Have to say the jump from 3K to 4K rpm is bloody amazing and scares me thinking how it will drive  |

Great result Daves and Skuzzles. But more importantly.... I win😎 If you can send us the address you want it posted to we'll get your prize sent Appreciate all the comments - it's certainly a bit of a weapon, it was a bit wet for it yesterday! It's also worth mentioning Nick got that figure on ordinary 95 octane. Works out to be roughly 365hp/330ftlb at the flywheel at 20psi. We've got the car on Merlin Motorsport's stand at the Retro Car show at Cheltenham Race Course on Sunday if anyone wants to say hi - hopefully the weather holds out as I'm craving ice cream. P.S. We're already planning phase 2 of the build! |
