dalmarshall Posted July 30, 2015 Report Posted July 30, 2015 The only thing burning out was my clutch lol.........maybe I'll try again one day......or not!!!!!!
SmokeEm Posted July 30, 2015 Report Posted July 30, 2015 You took it too easy. Rev to 5k, drop clutch. Simple. Practice on water 1st. Also if diff is 4.1:1 or higher, you'll need to start in 2nd gear. I ain't called SmokeEm for nowt 2
classicwhitey Posted July 30, 2015 Report Posted July 30, 2015 i will use that tip at the pod next week as not getting alot of smoke at the minute! 1
PeteRS8084 Posted July 30, 2015 Report Posted July 30, 2015 I used to reverse my mk1 Tina gt flat out and then shove it into first, once spinning rammed it into second............used to get loads of smoke. Used to get funny looks through on southend seafront (before they changed the layout to stop hooning) back in the late 70s! Happy days! And I used to drift, before it was cool, around the kursaal roundabout. Don't do anything like that now though, it's as if your head tells your feet how much things cost if you break something lol 2
dalmarshall Posted July 30, 2015 Author Report Posted July 30, 2015 I think that's why I was a bit cautious with the clutch, had a vision of the old half shafts snapping!! 1
SmokeEm Posted July 30, 2015 Report Posted July 30, 2015 i will use that tip at the pod next week as not getting alot of smoke at the minute! I realised that last time I saw you but didn't see you to mention it, sorry. We had same problem, that's how I know 1
irishtorag Posted July 30, 2015 Report Posted July 30, 2015 wasn't drifting or diffin back in the day it was broad siding lol wet roundabouts were great 2
zetecmk2 Posted July 30, 2015 Report Posted July 30, 2015 broad slide...havn't heard that in years!!!.... and j turns from the burnout reverse and first....you needed all the help you could get when 88bhp was "good"!
theloudboy Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 Darren we watched Mr WPE burn your next out if you want when I'm up the lock up next I will have ago
2litreScapri Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 I haven't really done a proper one, my attempts are quite feeble. Wet weather (like today) means I could have a lot of fun on the way back home from work
SmokeEm Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 i will use that tip at the pod next week as not getting alot of smoke at the minute! Did it work? More smoke?
Deanobeano Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 My xr4i made some nice holes kinder miss her
classicwhitey Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 yea more smoke, just the tyres didnt like it quite so hot lol so my times were slower. ended up just giving it a quick blip to clean them with a rolling burnout. think ill take a sparte set next round and go for the best burnout trophy 1
PeteRS8084 Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Think you have blown a hose, seems to be dome steam from the underside lol. Your such an essex boy! 1
colr6 Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 I was thinking more like fumes coming out the block breather when you Rev a pushrod over 7grand! Good effort mate keep trying lol
Leo Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 It's all about commitment. And tyres and drive shafts and axles.
dalmarshall Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Posted October 10, 2015 Ooh I've been a bad boy today..............donuts are surprisingly easy too!! I'm ashamed and buzzing at the same time ha ha When I got home I said to er indoors 'we're getting an Indian tonight...sod the diet'...........bad to the bone me, rebel without a ...........err....clue!! 1
theloudboy Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Shame mine is off the road or we could have gone out to burn some rubber 1
khanlad Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Indian sounds good, drop me off a chicken jalfrezi?
theloudboy Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 What you done to it now? If your asking me I was going to put new brakes on my car but then I ordered a new N/A Y/B oops so can't afford the brakes now lol
theloudboy Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 What was wrong with the last one? Nothing at all I want more power and I'm building a new escort for it to go in
