relief valves are great fun, boost is so much more violent now :D

and I suspect I would have done better had my hose been clamped down.

Not sure of the BHP at the time to be honest. I did so many mods over the years I can't remember exactly what I had at the time, I think it was running 10 or possibly 12PSI so I guess that's 140BHPish

It was a really hot Summers day too so that wouldn't have helped although the tarmac was nice and grippy which did help.

R5's aren't really about big BHP numbers, they're just so light that you don't need it.

Hah. My car is faster to 60 than your Puma.

Even when it was stock. New. 33 years ago :p

Anyway, I digress.

RE the 5 second thing. The 700HP Dolly does 0-100 in 6.2 seconds, would that do? :D Without nitrous oxide, too. That's another 200HP on top.

All I need to do is find a suitable engine. And then weld the shell solid. And..... :(
