that looks mental, is the car swerving under load as the turbo kicks in or is he warming the tyres up like the F1 guys do on a warmup lap

dee_rz, yes I was amazed at how many forums it was on, and to this day I still don't know who posted it up!

Cheers for that STU!!! :oops: I wish they had cut the first part of the video out WITH ME IN!!! :x :x I feel a right tool. (and I was told it would look good to say do the power graph thing, but seeing it I'm not so sure lol)

It was great though to have Bill (who in the mini circle is quite famous) drive the car, after I took him out in it, he said there was a long days filming ahead so can we turn the power down and if we get time at the end of the day we'll turn it back up. I truly believe that he thought the engine wasn't going to last the day. Any way was quite pleased as I didn't know how he was going to treat the car, and one other factor was that the next day or so I have an all expenses paid trip to a big show in Assen in Holland, please see link. http://miniwilliams.mysite.orange.co.uk/assen.htm and it was a real one off opportunity and didn't want any thing to happen to car. So that's why i think it looks quite slow round some parts, as he was only on 11-12 psi, half boost for most of the time.

As for anti lag now I have a small squirt of gas to aid things but back then, I just had some thing I bodged up to help spin the blower up on the line, this didn't work as once I brought the clutch up the wheels spun.

Here are A few links if your board you might like to see.
