[Dave]

[Bairdy]

lol your 43bhp NOS prepared blue bird will have nae chance against my new beast. going to get the yellow double sided tape on the bonnet to make it go faster.
fastest double sided tape around san :L

[John Lindsay]

Just that you don't have any 8)

[Bairdy]

Ive been compairing both yellow and green double sided tape lately and iv got to say my green double sided tape seriously increases corner speed and also top end down the straight, although the yellow isn't too far behind.
Try it for urself if you dont believe me.:-D

[Dave]

John this could solve all ur problems?

[Bairdy]

Just been told that andymoore has made a move from the yellow tape to the green and has noticed significant chages.
This is what ur missing John.
I will reveal my 2nd find later on in the week to help lower drag down the straight and and extra punch :lol:

[John Lindsay]

You see, I used to have the "common people" double sided tape, I've recently changed to the yellow stuff, and the results are great, OK my corner speed was good with the green stuff, but it's much better with the yellow stuff.

[ballsie]

You're both missing out - white double sided tape is where it's at!

Hadouken!

[Bairdy]

never tried the white ballsie so cant comment sorry

Thats been your downfall john!

[Garrypd160]

What is double sided tape, and why would you use it on ur car? Are you using it in place of mini pins for extra grip?

[Bairdy]

Double sided tape comes in various colours, sticky on both sides and is great for sticking speedos, transponders and receivers onto ur chassis, the different colours create different characteristics for your cars handling and top speed,
Theres been much debate into what colour makes your car go faster.
Personally i prefer the green but every1 to their own ae

[MarkStrathie]

How can tape have an effect on your car?

[Big_Dave]

It can't. It's just like go faster stripes.

[Bairdy]

was wondering who was going to be the first to dive in :lol:

[ballsie]

If you want stability in the high speed sweepers then this is the stuff.

I can import for anyone else who wants it :lol:

[Dave]

I have just recently moved to green tape and have noticed the difference and it was this that made me get into the A final at Ayr. Going to try and get some of the yellow stuff from John to help me on carpet on friday

Oooh if its imported, it must be fast :-D

[ballsie]

Yup - full JDM spec.

That equates to a limited slip diff, higher rev limit and championship white paint :lol:

I took that a little to far - I'll get my coat :roll: ...

[John Lindsay]

Ballsie, the white stuff is sooooooooo slow.

Plus, you'll find that it's not actually the colour of the actual tape which gives me the edge, it's the colour of the stick resistant backing.

Yellow's the way forward.

Green's a mingin colour anyway, and the white stuff isn't dense enough, which raises your cars centre of gravity due to the amount of air amongst the tape. Hence, the grey more dense stuff is better, as the weight is nice and low to the bottom of the chassis.

[ballsie]

I used to use the black "stealth" sticky tape - but i found my car was invisible to BBK!

[Maxxed_Ross]

congrats man, you'll soon be sitting about wondering what the hell to do with all that time off lol

Just don't stand too near the edge, I've almost been washed overboard twice now during the winter storms
