Only just saw this thread.

Same cornering speed my a.rse! With that boat anchor in the back!!!

I Will BE THE FASTEST!!! MWAH MWAH MWAH MWAH.

With my light and fleet footed K powered* Elise I will dance around them all like a, errm, dancer.

The boat anchor in the back is ballast to balance out the sack of potatoes in the driver's seat :-)

I'm sure the standard Stark kit has a baffled sump kit included btw Robin, unless you decided not to fit it?

You're kidding nobody, Robin. If anyone knows the minutiae of their own engine conversion, it's you! :)

He outsources all that kind of stuff now. Far too busy being a tech guru I hear ;-)

I am bored of the numerous mechanical question phone calls I got, "can you build me a 250bhp K, pretty please" etc.

Too kind - however I really haven't had time over the last few years and I genuinely know next to nothing about it - except it goes quite quickly compared to old Egor.

Cheers,
Robin

If it's the same as Andy's it is really rapid, couldn't believe how fast Andy's was at Donnington. That said his throttle stuck open when he took me out. Maybe that made it feel super fast.
