Sa September Stagea Cruise

[bigkevracer]

That would make sense, but a search around online says the figure varies considerably depending on the car (obviously).

But AWD autos have the most drivetrain loss, and figures I saw thrown around online were between 25-35% loss. If this figure is constant, which would make sense, maybe it's 25-35% off the stock figure?

[slippylotion]

exactly...I was gonna say so my car must be 370kw at the flywheel!!

AFAIK the loss is a constant figure, not a % which increases with power!

Correct it's a constant. If initial loss is say 35kw thats it. It doesn't multiply the loss as it makes more power. The amount lost can also vary depending what gear the car is tested in. So it's a highly variable figure and one I don't usually worry about.

Hey guys.........excuse me.........,m35 owners???

Less talk about killa wasps more about cruising, this isn't another" I can't tune my 35 because turbo is about to blow up" thread.

Back on topic please

Ok, lets resume our regularly scheduled program.

Are the C34s going to turn up or have they all rusted apart?

Yesterday I picked up ours from the "Ding Shop"...now looking very "bling"

All the "cuts & bruises" have been repaired...not sure why the Japs put foam under the mirrors ?

....sure doesn't help long term preservation. Did they do it to the M35's ?

Too early to organise a northern meeting point for a convoy to the dirty south? Parrofield airport carwash anyone?

[SatchiThaStagea]

If the meeting point is the same as the last cruise Robbie organised, leaving the wash at 9:15 should get us there in time.

Robbie can ya pass on the plan of the car wash meeting point to the northern leggys for us? Cheers
