Info:
After getting totally ripped off with the new engine build of the XUD, I lost heart and stripped the XUD Track Car of all it’s got faster bits and bolted them to a 62,000 mile factory fresh GTi-6. I sold the XUD engine bits to various people to live on…
The aim with the GTi-6 track car is to run it as it is for this year, a 200-220hp naturally aspirated track car, whilst I save the money and build a 500hp capable Supercharged (or perhaps turbocharged) motor for next years show/track season.
The car itself handles brilliantly, is plenty quick enough for current track use but knowing I’ll get bored there’s an engine on the stand in the garage waiting for it’s new uprated internals….

RE: Car of the Month VOTING - Best Tuning - April 2013 - puglove - 22-04-2013

RE: Car of the Month VOTING - Best Tuning - April 2013 - 4WayDiablo - 22-04-2013

RE: Car of the Month VOTING - Best Tuning - April 2013 - Dum-Dum - 26-04-2013
I went for hovis on the basis that if all 5 were parked on the drive in front of me and i was told i could have the keys to one to keep it would be hovis car.

RE: Car of the Month VOTING - Best Tuning - April 2013 - 4WayDiablo - 01-05-2013
Although I didn't vote for birk its still a very worthy winner
RE: Car of the Month VOTING - Best Tuning - April 2013 - Ed Doe - 01-05-2013
^ I feel it's a bit much considering it's not turned a wheel in years and he doesn't have any drive to finish it... but yeah I spose it is a project car of the month, and the title Project does cover 'incomplete' 'long-term' and 'still in it's constituent parts'...
RE: Car of the Month VOTING - Best Tuning - April 2013 - Dum-Dum - 01-05-2013
Title was tuning Ed and it is tuned. Pretty much everyone considers their car a work in progress but at varying stages.
Car of the Month VOTING - Best Tuning - April 2013 - Jonny b - 01-05-2013
Had mine 10 years and its still a project lol
RE: Car of the Month VOTING - Best Tuning - April 2013 - Birk - 01-05-2013
I bet if 306gt30 had remembered to enter he would have won, but I suppose his is also still an unfinished project, a big no no aye lol
And I have got drive to Finnish it, I'm preoccupied in saving my money for a house, i must have my priorities in the wrong order lol

Definitely! You can live in your car but you can't race your house as the saying goes

This coming from a man who actually owns a house
RE: Car of the Month VOTING - Best Tuning - April 2013 - Birk - 02-05-2013
It will get done, just not sure when. I have enough coin to finnish it off, but i dont know what type of house im getting yet and the ammount it will need spending on it, hence the reservation of money and lack of progress on zee dimma.
