Bodge is trying my Patience Arggghhhh

My beloved Bodge is going to Warrington tomorrow to have a new manifold mafe for it.

So, having had difficulties starting it, we decided to try and push it onto a car trailor :lol:

Eventually, we used ratchet straps to drag it on.

Painstaking inch by inch, and then once it had moved a foot, we had to whack the handbrake on, remove the strap and start the process again.

After 1 and a half hours, the sodding thing was on there.

One thing is for sure, nobody was going to nick it in a hurry.

I had to stop myself from booting the cack out of it a few times.

Rant over.

It is getting garaged from now on though, as the electrical issues must have been caused by the cold weather.

Corky, Have you a sense of humour, Or has someone taken it out
I never said you were a crap driver,
Just not proven other wise,
You should do very well in an evo 5rs
Look at gav/brad/kenny,
If i bust the gearbox, I will do this really weird thing and buy another,
I doubt i will have another turbo on the car this yr,
You are dead right i have spent far to much on the car,
Changed my mind to often and not enough knowledge in tuning and where i wanted the spec to be in the end

I do have a sense of humour, just hearing the same crap over and over.

My car isn't a 5 RS anyway, and I only did one sprint in it and had a failure. So no I haven't any results in it thus far.

Just sorted a garage out so that it doesn't have to sit outside which is why I think there is a problem with the alarm (cold got in it), so the only thing wrong with it is the manifold, which is being sorted whilst we type.

Out of the other 4 sprints I did in my 8, I did pretty well to say it was bogo.

corky



To be picked was good enough for me and was only 0.03 off 10th place,
Beaten just by zens scooby
Where have i ever said i am good at sprints,
I would say i am average at best,
Find a post where i have written on here that i am a wicked a1 driver,
Never you tool
I was quicker with my 8 bb turbo on at silverstone and rockingham
Lets see your results in your evo 8, are thats right **** all
I have a big gob on here,
The good thing is i don;t shy away in real life aswell
My 1st post was for a laugh, Good how people change

The trophy in front of me says I must have won something.

No need for mud slinging, just giving back as good as I get.

I was having a laugh to begin with, you just sounded like you were being personal.

I know I am not a brilliant driver, and I enter for a laugh.

I bought my car because I didn't want to wreck a later model.

It is very rough, hence I called it Bodge, so I must have a sense of humour.

Corky,
Keep it coming if it makes you feel better mate,
I to bought the car to compete for me, no one else
Just a good dasy out with decent people (90% of them)
The later cars are not worth much more anyway so thats why i don;t care about thrashing it
I would guess we would be pretty close
