Rebuilding my CUP260



:laughing:

Next will be a newly designed set of wheels

Integrate (engineer in) his knife & he can pretend to be Ben Hur cutting everyone down to size! :smiley:

Would that cut us all down far enough for

It appears the OP has, somewhat pettily, now edited every post on this thread to remove anything of technical interest, so there really is zero value in him being here! :unamused: :wave:

LOL. Not sure if I can achieve a conversation at your level of IQ, or ego, but will give the first one a go.

As for way ahead of you comment, I think I said ‘I bet you’re not’ on the basis that you had already said you had nothing to show for it, as so eloquently quoted my Tim above.

We had played with the idea of moving some stuff around to achieve some/most of the goals on the wish list. We didn’t spend a huge amount of time on it, as said before, changing the geometry was banned in the series we were competing in. But these ideas never quite go away. So when we were messing around with an Audi conversion, we had another play around with moving some other things. Some of them were really easy, others caused knock on affects down the line, which needed further parts/mods/costs/time. Eventually, even the really easy bits became cost prohibitive to justify the development cost vs benefits/customer take up. If we had a customer with a blank cheque book and long timescales we would look into it again. If we were being really cunning, there’s a couple of really good/easyish tricks with the standard subframe you could do, and most scruitineers wouldn’t even notice!

I’ve never been to the middle east desert, so no idea of what additional challenges that brings, other than its hot, sandy and full of people that are a kinda angry. So lets say it needs to survive a minimum of 10 years on a road car, in any environment found on earth, the normal automotive testing criteria - hot, cold, wet, humid, salt, sand, you name it. Even Lotus can double this bit!! But still needs to be ‘better’ than the Lotus version in every way.

Peculiar behaviour indeed. First time I’ve heard of someone self banning themselves from a forum.

The internet version of “…I’m taking my ball and going home…”?

Bit to late sadly but DONE

Top job, SeriouslyDave

Oh well, I doubt he will be back, maybe he needs to go play with Frank, oh wait to people with very strong opinions on what is the right thing to do, this can only end well :smiley:

Nah it’s normal when these kinds of personality implode

I’m sure the result car will be pretty as hell, but questionable if it’ll ever set a time.

It is a shame he has been banned, assuming that is the case?

He did seem to have some personality and social issues, however it would have been good to see the outcome of his rebuild.

Don’t think he was banned, more self imposed I think
