cainchapman 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2007 Haha, I love it. You have to admire the british build quality. Look at that bonnet fit. Primo! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
threeta 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2007 i think i over braked into one of the courners and he got past. Definitely on same lap!!! Bonnet fit due to some hasty repairs after spinning off into a concrete wall. Lesson 1 in spins - stand on the brakes!!!! Then when the car has slowed enough to get traction it won't fly off into a wall or worse, into another car!! learned that the hard way - those xjs are built like tanks and darn near impossible to straighten. Nice to meet you today Cain - see you're a frod driver too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi535 538 Report post Posted June 16, 2007 (edited) keep n eye out for a race series on tv called superstars??? mostly e 39 M5s but some E60 545 and 550 too.The supercharged jags clean up tho.....Strange rules,5 liter v8 is the engine config,I dont know which model Jag but I guess it must be the 4.2 supercharged donk.... I note the 535 bonnet isnt exactly a neat fit either! Edited June 16, 2007 by kiwi535 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

threeta 0 Report post Posted June 21, 2007 me...a number 45 in front of a number 15 is hard t had the same number all year - 46. mainly in the jaguar owners club xj race series, but i got tangled up in the anglo german challenge a couple of times. Will post another photo of the start line. 3 speed auto (GM400) was da bomb!! especially trying to use 1st when its kitted to the max and tries to spin the car when braking and changing.

I note the 535 bonnet isnt exactly a neat fit either! Interesting you mention it i saw superstars too, there seems to be a really small field only about 12? Certainly odd seeing the old body of the S-Type leading e60 m5's!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

conrod 1 Report post Posted July 3, 2007 yes they are, and the cars are relatively standard, with several running the E39 M5 gearbox. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
