I've just done a little noseying around on the R32OC site and found this out.

At the moment they have 13 cars signed up. 4 of these have big turbo conversions between 400 and 550+bhp

Some other R32's have around 270

The rest look stock.

If I take the rough BHP of the first 10 on the list, then their total is roughly 2960bhp, or to put it another way an average of 296bhp per car that we would have to equal.

If the R32 chaps are allowed to take their top 10 then the situation looks dire, with a total of around 3430, or 343bhp per car!!!

If we don't get 10 cars (only currently 7!) and they pick thier top 7 they would have 2680bhp or.....wait for it.......

382bhp per car!! :scared: :scared:

Our best case scenario is that all the big turbo cars don't show and we have an average of around 255bhp per car to equal :happy2:

I know it is just a bit of fun, I just like to win :grin:

This thread is hilarious  :grin:

John, I can't believe you've started working out bhp predictions lol. It's only for fun and 198bhp people are just as welcome, maybe more so.. :evilgrin: (no really, it's very secondary to just having an enjoyable day!).

Moschops, wigit, MAT ED30.. get your names down on R32OC! I’m getting dates from Weston tomorrow and will be PM'ing everyone on the OC to ask them for their preferred date(s).
