Well going purely by book figures Clio 1.8 16v engine= 134HP Volvo 340 1.7 kerb weight=1001KG Driver weight=108KG (yes fat b*stard size ) So it equals roughly 121HP/Tonne going by book figures BUT my car has been stripped out, buckets and cage also the engine is running on yamaha R1 bike carbs, so for now i'll live with 121HP/tonne until I get the car weighed as is and RR'd

Herald 1200ish... Book weight is 813kg. Power is probably in the region of 65bhp so that gets a result of 80bhp/ton. (On original engine it would have been 48bhp giving 59bhp/ton) The Oxford has gone through a couple of engines in my time with it but weighs 1120kg according to the original owners handbook. So with factory 62hp we get 55bhp/ton With Std Marina TC/MGB lump (95bhp) we get 84bhp/ton And with the new tuned B engine that will be going in before it hits the road (125bhp) we get 112bhp/ton I know I don't own it anymore but out of interest the Sun-Tor would have weighed around 1050kg and had approx 51bhp from its low comp 1622 giving it a potentially losing 48.5bhp/ton Hmm, I guess you probably still beat that Oldbus

RMAD, something that was raised earlier in the thread..would it be viable to run a rolling road session at RR08?...seems a lot of the guys would be interested. Maybe worth thinking about next year

Can't believe my racing car has been knocked from 8th to 9th and now to tenth by a Fiat Panda! Bitchwhore! ;-)
I'm still very pleased to be up there at tenth. If all goes well my car will return from being mapped on the wild streets of Hornchurch Essex this week.
Then it's off to the track for competitive lapping and some idea of how fast it actually is.
Great thread.
