 Ha! Beetlechoose... That name brings back memories...  Beetlechoose used to be our sponsor in the german Käfer-Cup until it's demise in 1999. Usually they had a trade stand at the Essen Motorshow. One year this very same car was shown there. I dont remember the year, but I recall I asked them if I can take a seat in the car. Although it had the steering wheel on the wrong side, I was kinda addicted to this type of cars since this day... Saludos, Ole |

I built it myself the first time round, so I'll do it this time, too. Dave and Judy supplied me with the heads and turbo system in a box, the rest was down to me. Plus, of course, their amazing amount of experience in helping me set it all up – the telephone bills were frightening!  |

The last two are of Flat Attack, the car I owned before No Mercy. Look at those shorts!!! The guy with me is Bernie Smith, who owned the car when it was called 'Humbug' and went on to build/race his 8-second VW dragster.

And just in case anyone didn't know, Flat Attack became the Deano's VWs car that Dean Weaver raced in Outlaw Flat Four.

Type 1 case from Rimco (shuffle-pinned, inserts with 10mm studs, etc), welded Type 1 heads from Kawell, with 42 x 39 valves, 8.5:1 compression, KRE triple springs, Del West titanium valves. Welded 78mm Pauter wedgemated crank, 5.6in Carrillo rods, Wiseco pistons, C&A Z-Gap top rings, stock Cima 94mm cylinders. KRE10 camshaft, Bugpack lifters, Manton pushrods, Pauter 1.5 roller rockers, KRE Rajay EF40 turbo, KRE 48mm Dell'Orto DHLA carburettor. 50-horse NOS fogger upstream of turbo (to act as intercooler more than anything), MSD 7AL with JayCee crank-trigger ignition. Kennedy Stage 3 pressure plate with Scat three-puck disc. Pretty basic stuff, but largely Type 1 VW-based (the crank was based on a 69mm stroke VW forging).  |

50-horse NOS fogger upstream of turbo (to act as intercooler more than anything) Very interesting. And did it work? Could you feel the nitrous "kick" in or did it just compensate for a very high intake temperature? Please excuse my ignorance |

Please excuse my ignorance Likewise Keith interested to hear about this, so was this on the atmospheric side of the turbo or boost side (can't figure out what you mean by upstream!, duh I'm having a bad day!).

Could you feel the nitrous "kick" in or did it just compensate for a very high intake temperature? Please excuse my ignorance I manually operated it from a push-button on the steering wheel – I hit it in second gear and used it until in fourth gear. If I used it off the line, it would blow the tyres away. So I guess, yes, I could feel the difference! Thanks KS what the spec of the KRE10 camshaft. It was essentially an FK10, I believe. |

Please excuse my ignorance This car worked perfect. i remember when Keith drove it at Santa Pod in the 90's . It was like a different world for us at that time . But Keith - build it back for racing. Not another gasser ..... make it fast and go racing with it Udo |

Can you share what the story was, with the normally aspirated engine in your car Keith?
How did it run, and what size engine was it?

That was after I sold the car to Frank in Holland, so I can't help you. Sorry. |
