Prolex-UK

It's been supercharged by Blitz (possibly in the US) and Tom's in Japan. Not had a turbo or Rotrex S/C fitted as far as I know. Some doubt on the S/C fitment due to the perceived strength of the aluminum alloy block and the complexity of the injection systems. Guess Prolex will find out one way or the other. Still running well at .4 bar............

Oh dear Msr Prolex...........tut tut tut i was there and looking forward to putting mine on the RR i think 380 bhp (std) without any japanese mods or chinese copies of parts is enough dont you Oh dear Msr Prolex...........tut tut tut i was there and looking forward to putting mine on the RR i think 380 bhp (std) without any japanese mods or chinese copies of parts is enough dont you Lack of power? I was there too and mine's putting out 333 bhp at the wheels (417 bhp at the fly) as standard, ..... that's without a supercharger @ scorps............380 bhp from over 5 litres against 370 from 3.5 litres F/I or even 306 N/A nuff said and its Japanese engineering not cheap chinese copies....funnily enough makes me wonder why you were even going to attend as detroit is more than a few miles from Tokyo when I last looked at the map.......... @ terry...........my Santa Pod 0-60 print out shows 4.9 for 0-60 not sure what the IS-F time is..........its about torque old boy my IS350 (only one in Europe BTW) I'm told has more lower down than the more common IS-F........also have a GPS verified top speed of 172 mph which is somewhat quicker that the common IS-F Have a wonderful evening.............

There's no RR due to a lack of interest. or lack of power

Nice car Tony.......... 2.2 I take it ? Keep looking at a GT3 on pistonheads.......... Keep polishing and get the fuel smell sorted.............

w/out vaseline...........

Car went very well with a final time of 120.49 which left me 14th out of 31 overall and 5 seconds faster than a hayabusa powered Dax Rush which surprised me. Think I could have gone even better if I’d have had better brakes…………. Video footage is of a 121.79 lap where I was experimenting with different lines/techniques as you can see the surface was interesting Paddock at start of event Arty pic in paddock after the rain came down….. Some you tube footage of the second timed run

Good luck whatever it is !

MX5 is a good track car

Teeside report Travelled up to Middlesborough for the lastest round of the Toyota Sprint Series on the Friday. Nice uneventful trip up. Saturday sampled the delights of Middlesborough’s shopping attractions before heading of the the Teeside autodrome for the event. It was to run from 4pm to 10pm . Stickers attached without drama,scrutineering then out for the practice stuff and a look at the track….. From the incar footage you will see how undulating the first section is with a blind negative camber section to concentrate the mind. Did a 54.71 on my second timed lap but the heavens opened for the 3rd session and the track remained damp for the next 4 runs run 7 was a good one felt just right but unfortunately I had to slow down due to a spinning MR2 Turbo who then stalled which meant I had to do another one which was pant ! the final run was my fastest at 54.28 which left me 6th in Class and 10th overall which I’m quite chuffed with. Barrie did well again in the Tartlet winning his class for the second time in a row....... Some pics below Video shot by spectator http://s60.photobucket.com/albums/h2/Moffe...nt=e64e9f13.pbr incar footage of lap 2 and 3 and the aborted lap 7

not this one..............or time attack club challenge

Nice..............does he fancy a brake upgrade ? !!!!!!!!!!!!

Brands is 10th August old boy

Silverstone TA report Another good day so the TOM’s IS350 compressor lop 6 seconds off last years time (in the Aristo V300). Final time was 1.16.406 which was still off the pace but I’m 100/250 bhp off most other cars as well as having standard suspension and running fully trimmed (my choice) Some pics and video below As ever thanks to kami for letting me risk my daily driver…….Chris & Mark from LOC for pit help during the day. My Sponsors TOM’s for the car compressor JUN-TW for the anti roll bars and BBK Wheels inmotion for the geometry J&N Electrical for all the electrical work at my workshop Charlesworth Motors for all the dirty bits Some pics In the garage on my way 120 mph down the straight Braking hard from 125 mph on back straight Preparing to get her ready for the trip home (wheels were red hot after 15 minutes…..) EVO after meeting the pit lane wall (driver was OK) Some video of the final part of my qualifying run. I’d come in after 6 minutes as the Toyos R888’s had gone off resulting in a sideways moment. Think this was when I did my fastest lap will post more pics as and when they are ready. I’m not at TA at Oulton Park as I’m at the Lexus Owners Club Euro meet in germany……..with a day at the Nurburgring then 3 days in Paris………..my next one is Brands Hatch

did quite well as suspension is bog standard.............thats in the Seat curves so you go blind right down then left ...lots of compression..........
