    Did you manage to make it to Loy Chee for chicken rice? Forgot to tell you to bring your own napkins. Singapore ain't got none.

    It has been damp all week here. Massive downpour a day or two ago. Stormy last night again... Singaporeans are saying "we" are getting it out of our system so the race will be dry.

    Hello Pete, I am unable to meet with you this time 'round. If you would like to go to Singapore's #1 place for chicken rice here is what to tell the taxi driver. Novena (part of town) - Balestier Road - Loy Kee Chicken Rice. It is right beside Shaw Plaza. He can drop you at Shaw Plaza...

    Cav 1075

    Fantastic Ian. Looks like a 30k trailer. Angelos' CAV makes big power - 392 over 500 hp and tq I am sure. How does the CAV put the power down?

    When do you fly back Pete? What hotel are you staying at? Have you been to Singapore before? I had an excellent time. Box seats were at the end of the pits facing the cars as they exit.

    Hi Pete, I live in Singapore. I attended the race two years ago. A client, who's client's husband was an organizer and I got box seats for qualifying. 5 star, 5 course meal with complimentary champagne and booze all night. I am not sure if I am going to be free next weekend. When do...

    GT 40 P/2231 finally at home!

    Looks like P wanted to keep it at 289 but it isn't short on power. Am inquiring if JP is happy with his choice?

    Cav 1075

    Ian, You still in the game? Been quiet out your way. Angelos' car has a mean stance to it. He has the 4 inch flares? He must have $250K into that thing. Still has the 392? Tell us more about that trailer.

    GT 40 P/2231 finally at home!

    Lovely car! A nice change to see someone having a car "their way" - a bespoke GT40. As one who is getting closer to GT40 ownership I have gotten caught up in "more and bigger is better" syndrome. 500+ hp 363 or 427, 4 inch Gulf flares, bright colours - a loudly stated GT40 for me. Then I...

    Roll On Performance

    Agreed Tim. I don't care for people muddying up a thread that has proven to be valuable - at least to me. I suppose the best way measure roll on performance with a vehicle like the GT40, with its slippery aerodynamics and high power to weight ratio, is to time the 60-150 or whatever speeds...

    Roll On Performance

    Are you talking to me? Let me set you straight. My name is not Will. Never has been and never will be. Got it? Next, typically this can be used as a nickname but used only by friends. You are not my friend. Never will be. Got it? You take a liberty by addressing me in this rude and...

    Roll On Performance

    HOO-RA! Tim, we have a passionate bunch of guys here. Who needs Viagra? Just send them over to the forum and let nature do the rest. :thumbsup: Cliff, I must be more factual if not pedantic. Now I STAND corrected... the Gulf cars had 450 hp. Never though 50 hp would double as a nuclear bomb...

    Roll On Performance

    To pull it back on topic, I was asking how a GT40 would stack up against modern cars from a roll due to its aerodynamics and high power to weight ratio. 200 mph barrier isn't a concern.
