Nice. Petrolicious have great production values to their vids.

Still think the Ratsun needs a proper paint job though! :D

Makes a nice contrast to some of the other impressive machinery in that building. :eek:
 
That vid does not seem like a normal Petrolicious vid at all. So much of the production and camera work wasn't right. The in car stuff was shot on a very cheap camera also. Just not the same 'feel'.

Mmmm bit of money in that family.

Lots of tappet noise (too much) but the exhausts sound good as always.

Vipergts - what was the spec of your car, they talk about it as if it's a race car?

So who is the local specialist who offered the lad 2 x purchase price - Duncan?

The only local specialist I know is Fourskins.

Not sure on the total spec of the engine TBH...nothing too hot but it spits and farts a bit.

Animal from suspension point of view....Too hard and very heavy steering.

I have mastered the suspension set up on my latest car....nice and compliant

If I remember your original thread, you weren't too happy with it as a whole as they never had it fueling/running as you had paid for?

Yes I got it sorted in the end with Sanspeed. They sent the carbs off for extra progression holes and bits.

Ran well after that along with a few other mods
