    Well the way I see it the results were in, the trophies were handed out. Now they want to change the results??? :eek:ut: Sounds like the FIA handled their scoring. :crazy: If they ask for their trophies back tell them this > :prrr:

    Is what it is, we still had fun and it was all for a good cause, 100% of the proceeds went to the Lupus Foundation...

    We'll get them next year!!:cool:

    It definately doesn't have the power my Mini had at one time, that said it goes pretty dang well and there is easily more there with the turbo....now will it handle better in the long run will be the fun thing to discover!!

    My Mini was a toy and I use that adjective in a good way...of course I do like to drive my toys every day!!

    Sweet; in going through all the papers I found the receipt from FM for the complete intake with the manual boost control to boot, thought it had that since it has a boost gauge installed too!!

    So other than it appears the previous owner washed it with river water and the time I will be spending with a clay bar to remove Freckles freckles, it's looking pretty darn good, fingers crossed!!

    Oh and about to order a set of 15x8 Enkei PFO1s with a fresh set of 225/45/15 Toyo R1Rs to replace the wagon wheels and slap worn out Hankooks....lol

    Anyone interested in a set of 17 inch Racing Hart wheels?

    Those are some big tires, but I'd guess your roadster has the power to handle them. I went from the stock 185 tire to a 205 performance tire & for my low powered roadster it actually hurt the performance. Too much grip. I like my cars to move around a bit so I dropped back to 195 Yokoblama S drives. Now my car moves around a bit & my smile is back when I drive it.

    Since you are getting new wheels & tires consider a good alignment. Over on M.net there are some good ones listed. I believe FM also has some on the site.

    I hope you plan on coming over for MOTD this year, love to check out your new toy.

    Here is a pic of the exact same set up on my car from Good Win racing's site. Wanted RPF1s but they don't make them in 15x8 and 949 6uls are all backordered until mid to late March...so, I went for these....Blimey will be jealous...lol;):p
