Mine is a right lard arse (glass windows, aircon, heater matrix, standard exhaust) so interested for comparision and to work out what else I can save without spending a fortune.

nathan about 1460kgs with half a tank of two star

I was planning on a 2 star \ 2 stroke oil mix to lay a smoke screen - will that affect the weight?

Curly · 25-04-2009, 12:46 AM

it might do but no one gona be sat on your rear bumper cos it looks like it could nip up

_Nathan_ · 25-04-2009, 09:54 AM

Is "nip up" a Manchester saying 'cos I don't know what it means

With 2 seats and 1/4 tank of fuel mine has come it at a lardy 1393!

It's a 2 stroke bike saying. Partial seizure, happened quite alot with 2 strokes...

Curly · 25-04-2009, 10:06 PM

yeah nathan thats still a bit heavy, your still on the standard M3 wheels and there pretty heavy. The ones that thorney let me use last week were a good 5 kilos lighter per wheel. that would save you 20 kilos after market back box , saves you 10 kilos passenger seats and belts 12 kilos. that puts it in the more reasonable 1350 kilos range, but saying that, you dont want to go too light because you might end up carrying ballast in brit car.

Looks awesome lads. Good to hear you all had fun

Looking forward to Brands now when we should be fully ready I hope. Trying to see if we can arrange a big BMW meet there so will put a post up with Marks approval?

My car was pretty much as it drove to the workshop, we left the bolt in cage in it, part stripped it (still had aircon, windows etc) and very soft suspension so all I really did was pootle about until the brakes went off really (still on old AP's). It was hard enough getting other cars ready let alone mine.

We have a car available for drive for Brands, £1k plus entry fees and tyres, standard class if anyone was interested?

...must....resist....mustn't give into temptation....

What's the insurance situation John? And what are entry fees/tyres costs i.e. what is the total cost of the weekend likely to be?
