thanks for your help pushing it back in shed 

[RobtheManx]

to be honest mate these are the old ones .i had issues with the offset on other rims even with oversize wings so i ordered a new set with much deeper backspace  there was a lot of clearance inside wheel on irs setup so i managed to get full travel of suspention without foulding the ol dwings   

Oh yeah , shows how much I know . Can't even tell what wings are what !

Looking good anyway !

[dannyboy]

cheers mate  thanks to your giving in  after me hassling you for ages to make the gasser parts

nitrous motor is ready to be fitted so hopefully in two or 3 weeks it'll be race ready.....
motor made 242fwhp today on dyno so with some gas should get the job done ?

[hotstreetvw]

242fwhp? would you share the current specs?  this is an animal.

What crank you got in that?

And when you drop the oil, can I have it as it should boost the hp of my engine having merely been ran in yours. Any ideas for the first outing?

PS. MORE PICS

Whoa Danny !!    That is some seri-arse normally aspirated power from a 2332 mate :-)   Alan must them heads flowing like a hurricane now......be interesting to see how it feels with an FK47 in there now too. Good Job and look forward to seeing you crack the 9's

My old nitrous 2332 with the same cam but with 10.8:1 CR, Jeff Denham Comp Eliminator heads and 51.5 IDA`s dyno`d 227hp. The engine responded really well on nitrous but unfortunately I could not get the clutch to hold due to a leaking wedgemate.

I wish you good luck on the race track!

nice picture 

[Neil Davies]

I wondered what was going on - I was following the reports on Eurodragster and saw a pic of Lizzy but then didn't see your number in the qualifying charts - no-one had names listed either, which was odd. Is it worth sticking a go-pro on the side of the car pointing at the back wheels to see if that gives any hints?

[dannyboy]

new starter is fitted  got a few changes on nitrous trigger to sort .and finally have the 2 step setup so some more testing this weekend at shakey 

[dannyboy]

so the car is running well getting a little clutch slip in first on launch  so 60 fits are bad  but had a few 11.6 passes at 115mph  with 1.74 60fts   and one 1.62 60ft but missed 4th and had to shut off as a pushrod shit itself at the top end  but still ran 11.5  at 110 mph so plenty of potential ,motor feels soooo strong 

[dannyboy]

quick update ,had loads of gremlins that I've been working through or more like muddling through  anyhow most issues seem to be sorted now the rear end seems to work well and the zero camber change on rear is very noticeable with traction on the line ,playing with the cm adjustments to get the launch better and it ran 10.36 and 10.37 with fairly poor 60fts so i think theres a fair bit more in it yet
very happy with the whole car so big thanks goes to all involved in helping /working on car
