Phoenix is back

[jeffw]

My J15, just about finished now, came out at 550 kg (a bit more than I hoped for) and 210 bhp, so 381bhp/tonne. I haven't driven anything fast for 3 years and I shall have to learn to make it handle too. At least I should be on the tarmac this year.

550Kg is very good considering. There is a guy on SKCC with a Westfield FW400 which tips the scales at 410Kg with a K Series in it.

Wasn't even aware what an FW400 was. Had to look it up and read only 10 or so made.

[jeffw]

Indeed and of those only 4 (I think) in carbon.

[dopdog]

looking good, will the dog come with you for a ride , in saying that do you remember the guy at Goodwood with the lizard, he told us that it went out in his car with him

475kg with a target power of 250bhp, which would gives 526bhp/tonne (virtual).

I be pretty confident on trouncing you on a power per weight per pound spent figure. Bhp/Tonne/£k

Good to see you are back on the road.

Luckly BHP/Tonne/£k doesn't win races. Normally it is £K=BHP/Tonne
