thanks chris, i just thought that the turbo may push me over the cc limit, if there is one?

Sorry to say that your car would not be eligble to run in our series as all Hy-Bred cars must be under two litre. If you go to the web page all the rules & regulations are on there.

But Brads engine is 1330 cc . . . . seems a little "short" of CC for the 2 litre class ....

james i think they add cc for the turbo, not sure how much, wouldnt be out by much i think. The 2L would probably have more power anyway, there running aftermarket ecus, cams, compression etc, bit much for my stockko engine :D

Not to mention half the wieght, 10 inch wide wheels/ slicks etc ect, but would have been fun to run around with them even at the back.

As supercharged & turbo charged engines produce more horsepower than normal asperated engines a factor 1.7 is added to the forced inducted engines. This means that a 1330 now becomes 2261 litres.

woohoo! so my little 1132 would be 1.924cc !!

Add the "right fuel" add some boost and some traction and I reckon we could take it to the big boys brad !

Nahh, I'm though with racing for a year of two methinks ....

Would be fun though

Good luck guys

Yeah Brad. I'm sure you would really give Borg and Co a run for their money. Poor things are only running normally aspirated V-Techs - 13 x 8 wheels superlight bodies etc. :roll:
Wouldnt want you getting in their in your streetie and upsetting them.

OK, dont take that post the wrong way. I;m not rolling my eyes at Brad and James.

It's more at the MRA rules. While I understand the reason for it I'd like to see if a street mini like Brads with the right tyres could take it up to a Supermini. Mind you with the top guys now gettng to the 1:09s around Wakefiled I seriously doubt it.

Does suck :(

I'd even settle for letting us out there to play with them, stuff the placing or whatever, let us run at the same time under a different class.

No way a street regoed mini 1.3T is as quick as those spaceframe mini's anyway..

no chance of me getting anywhere near 1.09's, would need alot more tyre, slicks, bigger brakes, half the weight, and alot more boost hehe.
