  1. I think the lotus split & the ferrari did good. William is the worse
  2. to your Caterham..... http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/photos/revealed-the-new-2014-formula-one-cars-slideshow/
  3. "I am not sure why everyone seems to be so impressed by this. You can get a 2.0 turbo four in a regular production Mercedes sedan" Ok let me see you carry your regular 2.0 4 banger like this. http://jalopnik.com/nissans-new-le-mans-engine-has-400-hp-and-can-fit-in-y-1509734976
  4. I think the secret was in metallurgy & tolerance.
  5. here's the shadow of Chapman --- 40kg @ 400hp. http://www.motorsport.com/lemans/news/nissan-unveils-revolutionary-petrol-engine-to-complement-electric-zeod-rc-powerplant-vid/
  6. I'm building a complete new harness.. I don't have a diagram but...Can you use painless wiring like this one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Painless-Wiring-18-Circuit-Wiring-Harness-/321292634474?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4ace88896a&vxp=mtr
  7. No need to put more gasoline in the fire. I mentioned it to avoid the snub & recreate the same event in LOG 30.
  8. "Some day we Caterham "elitists" will have to mention the royal welcome we got at LOG 30 by the "real" Lotus 7 owners. Talk abt being a red headed stepchild!" I don't know much about this group but I think you guys are talking about this thread. http://www.usa7s.net/vb/archive/index.php/t-5645.html If this is the thread, then the person who left were doing the same thing - to non-caterham. The rest of us are just chop liver.....sorry, I can't forget what he said.
  9. His wife is Danica.....the Nascar demolition derby
  10. "And you will soon see why there is a stigma attached to a "kit" car." I like the approach of Superlite cars --- they don't call it "kit car" My next project.....

  12. "The drive for power has been there long before the US was hugely obese. I'm not sure where the geneses of this was, but I really believe the anchor to this psychology has been cheap fuel. I bet if Europe's gas prices dropped in half over night there would be a growth in engine size/power pretty quickly." What you said is true. After the war, GI started the hot rodding by 1940's, not a single obese GI came home....the quest for power was immense then. Fuel were plentiful - very very cheap. Mr. Chevy - Mr. Ford & Mr. Dodge drinks too much SUNOCO 260 (102 octane) in order to satisfy their insatiable 6 pack - double barrel - quads - big tall cam - double pumper - cross flow - big cubes & exotic hemi heads. The muscle car was born. Apex & Vertex was not the measuring stick but to go fast in straight line...so true up to this minute. Caterham 160 will not sell....they might take the chassis and transplant another engine the next year....lol: lol: ...after all its a suzuki....
  13. I agree....American concept- big bicep - i don't care about my tendon & ligaments !
