NITROUS OXIDE ( nos / n2o ) advice forum

Thought I'd make a start.

9th is RWYB, Del has promised a TVR spectacle.
10th is BMW show, which usually turns into a RWYB by the afternoon for various reasons

Our Bimmer is undergoing 2 changes in readiness.
The rev limit is being raised and more NOS pipework is being provided from the bottle.

Smoke or no smoke, its going out in style at the peril of Vivienne's right foot.
I want her to have the honour of 13's in the 100's.
She still nags me now, for pulling the plug at the last event

I have over 50 TVRs listed as attending on the Saturday.
If its raining there will be less, if its sunny there could be a lot more turn up.

There could be a few cars running 10's for the first time but one thing is for sure there will be a lot of sweet sounding V8s and raspy straight 6's looking good on the 1/4.
See you there... hopefully in my car without valvetrain issues

Vivienne and I intend to watch on the saturday and enjoy the sights/sounds.
We're saving the Bimmer for Sunday

I'm there as it's my birthday on the Sunday Can't think of a better way to spend it

I think I can only make the Sunday. I'm at the pod all weekend before for retro, and thur / fri 7th and 8th for a film session and saturday is supposed to be my wedding anniv + daughters birthday get together. So Sunday I'll just be turning up with the car on the off chance of having a run or two??

I'll let you know on the day how things are looking

Shame i was hoping for you to be my WON back up expert.
Maybe Richard will lend a hand if i need one?

We need to show these big money guys what nitrous is all about

Cheers Del, I'd be honoured to help. I've come a long way in 2 years

i will be there, need some more practice my times are all over the shop lol

I cant even get my own system working properly mate!! I wouldnt rely on me for good advice??
Richard understands modern cars more than me.

Shame i cant make the saturday. It could have been fun. I could have been a contender

Is it BMW's only on the sunday?

Or can anyone run/rwyb?

The Sunday starts off for BMW's only, but for the last 3 years by the afternoon, they opened it up to all.
Most BMW drivers don't have the stamina to race all day, too busy posing

As Richard says Greeny!
Supposed to be BMW only but more often than not it becomes a free for all around 2pm. I'm only an hour from the Pod so its worth my while to drag the MG up there on the trailer just in case. I can spend time as pit bitch for Richard and watch some racing whatever happens
And its somewhere i can run the engine for tweaking without upsetting the neighbours

Richard !!
Are you booked into a club stand or just going on the fly??

I'm booked into Bimmer Forum Stand/Pit Area (60 cars) .
I requested that I have easy access to and from the track (cos we're racing), so ideally by an exit.
I was told I'd get what was available
The last thing I need, is to get pinned in by a bunch of posers

Think I might be going to this might have a couple of blasts up the strip but I won't have nitrous by then so just normal 3.0 power

Good idea, then at least you have a benchmark, if you haven't already

I'm booked into Bimmer Forum Stand/Pit Area (60 cars)

I dont suppose there might be a spare pit pass going ??

If not I'll just blag my way in as usual

When they see the car on the trailer they normally let me in the pits if I give them a sob story or mention a couple of names

I'll ask the organiser.
I have a spare pair of BMW badges we could put on the MG and just tell'em it shrunk

Ha Ha!!
Cool beans..... I dont need to park in your club area. I can find somewhere to hide the truck and trailer. Just tell the guy I'm your tuner

I dont mind sticking a BMW badge on the old sled Rich
At least that way there might be a quick bimmer on site

Thats bad news about the plunger for my purge.
If you haven't got it by Monday, please send everything (or drop in if your passing).
I need to make a start ASAP, the electrics are done

Dont worry mate!!

I'll get it sorted quickly

That's the plan mate as I haven been on a drag strip ever let alone in the BMW lol so can have some practice and set some times to beat for myself

Vivienne did us proud. PB after PB after PB.
Finished the day on a 13.7 @ 100

Sweet, nice one

Was great to meet you both even though we were on our way out

The Proof. Vivienne also did a 13.70, but we wanted the 100 mph too
