Had a few hiccups today with the gooon, nothing major (if cracked brake discs aren't anything major) ;D Was getting consistent 1.25-1.26 lap times even with the less than perfect brakes and the completely shot to hell tyres Are few pics etc can be found www.chippers.me.uk/gallery/gooon/Coombe%2017-05/

I cant find any suppliers locally with any CO2/Argon mix in stock and desperately need some Does anyone have any spare within Chippenham, or can anyone locally drop some over fuel paid of course I would collect but the car is of the road and requires welding

Ratty: the khan's on your old sierra look really nice, however I want to go for a more euro style style approach on mine. I had 17" on my last XR3i and they totally killed the acceloration (sic) Click the link "hiding up front" under my pic to see how I sorted the acceleration issue ;D

if your engine is throwing unburnt fuel down the exhaust, it wont produce co2 from that fuel, but the unburnt fuel will still reduce your mpg, so worse economy does not automatically mean higher co2. Unburnt fuel will evaporate and release CO2 etc I take your point though, but if both engines are running properly then MPG should equate to CO2 emissions. 2 cars with 30mpg should produce the simular amount of carbon. What you drive though is less important to how you drive though if talking about emissions and as such any green tax should be on fuel

You need a control jar of just fuel to leave next to the jar with fuel and copper pipe otherwise the test wont give valid results
