[QUOTE=CONDYBOY;167753]Sounds sweet, very nice job! But can you break 600bhp.[/QUOTE] Give me a few more weeks and i will give you the answer :biggrin: Russ

[quote=PAVLIE;187217]Nice one russ, that ounds absolutely awesome mate[/quote] Many thanks it will be back on the rollers soon again i have made a few changes ;-) Russ

[quote=T5-Beast;187241]Can we get some videos of it on the the road :) Rob[/quote] Hi Rob Cannot show any on road :( I will have some decent footage early next year when i try it out on the top gear track ;-) Russ
Hi Russ, That does sound rather good! You're not inferring your car may appear on TV are you...?!
[quote=T5Andy;187357]Hi Russ, That does sound rather good! You're not inferring your car may appear on TV are you...?![/quote] Hi Andy I wish :( But just a few hours on the track is good enough for me ;-) Russ
[quote=RT MECHANICS;187359]Hi Andy I wish :( But just a few hours on the track is good enough for me ;-) Russ[/quote] Maybe it might create a bit of a stir and they may feature it on the tv program! ;) If not it might take Jeremy back to when he had his 855R :) In any case it will be interesting to see what lap time you manage to pull off, S60R managed a 1.35 and I should imagine you should be a good 10 ish seconds better :)
i am in love big time nice motor mate!!!!

(Though you might have to stick an "Alfa" badge on it to get it past Clarkson these days :(
