Was that your best effort old man. 2.56

I thought the Ohlins were meant to make you faster?

Hello,

I visited SPA last monday and I would like to thank the Sir who was so kind enough to take me on a ride in his Evo X!

He (I estimate him +-45 years young) was parked in front of a grey Nissan GTR and I had a very nice/useful chat with him. If I am not mistaken he had a blue FQ360 with Ohlins... He also had a carbon roof diffusor...

I approached him to get some info about his car (as I am currently about to order a new X 5 speed but had some questions) and we had a nice chat. Surprisingly he asked me to ride a few laps along, so I just couldn't resist!

I'm sorry Sir I didn't catch your name and I hope you read this, but again I would like to thank you for the info you gave me and for the opportunity to enjoy your very nice car! If all goes well, I will be back as an Evo X owner in a few months! (the delivery time will be octobre)

Best regards,

krikke

What is it now then chris

Boost @ 2.03 bar

antony@Indigo-gt · 04-06-2012, 15:07

I think it went off scale, I think it maybe higher than that, or it could be absolute then it would only be a bar

It has AP brakes, Ohlins suspension, Milltek exhaust and a turbo elbow, standard map, turbo, engine etc
Oh yeah, and just in case my little stalker is reading this I got a carbon prop as well, so it looks good when I roll it

I don't know Keith, that is the first time I'd heard it too. I put the mics in the boot (that's why the debris in the wheel arches sounds so bad) and it sounds like the wheels are rubbing or something, but they aren't, certainly didn't hear it in the car

They do, you should have seen me before!

I think I can do a 2:40 on proper slicks, but I wouldn't film it, I'd just tell you about it, like some others

At last someone who understands!!!!
Yes it's standard boost, just over a bar, 0 to 1 is negative

Yes that was me, glad you enjoyed the laps and I hope it helped with your decision

And I'll have you know I'm only 21

krikke · 04-06-2012, 17:38

Hello Sider, glad you read this so my gratitude is well received!

Oh... since you're an adult (21yrs) and I'm only 14... I think you taking me for a 'ride' is highly illegal...

(I smell a claim here: I can use the extra money to gear up the future X!)
