Hi all ,

My name is Ross and i found out about BP from Gary and Christian at APT . I drive a track orientated R5 GTT which we dynoed yesterday at 196.2 bhp @1.3 bar and 188 ftlb torque on its original carb . Its not huge power but its a giggle in a car that weighs 800kg inc driver :). Now my car is kinda finished i like to start getting on track again and it seems this is the place to come :) Next plan is to set up fuelling to 1.5bar and get into the 200's and then ill stop , honest :).Cant wait to start learining off you track bods.

Daniel, this site's all about being quick. No good complaining when you're too slow :wink:

Ross, You didn't happen to video Gary falling in and out of the car by any chance? :rotflol:
