Went for dinner with Shin from Prospec Motorsport and Alex Creasey last night and the inevitable happened. What do you think happens when you place 3 car nuts in the confines of four walls with nothing to talk about other than octane, turbochargers and the benefits of chilli sauce over garlic. The car’s came out to play.

0 degrees ambient temperature ensured insane power last night with most of us peaking at over 0.1bar over standard. The abnormally high boost pressure induced a 103 degree oil temperature reading on my car, so we pulled into this car park for some pictures too.

Some fantastic fireworks from both Shin’s 540BHP Mines car and also my Blue. Where Shin was creating a lovely smooth, almost caressing flame out of his exhaust which smothered the back of his car, I was generating explosive bangs which I could literally feel through my seat. I’ve developed a method now which will pretty much guarantee a firework display on demand. A nice show piece and yes I know, extremely childish.

Also attracted a fellow Pulsar GTi-R en route who was pretty suprised to see 2 GT-R’s and a STi parked up on the side of the road.
