I’m at BBR , car having some horses added , and the burger man said Elvis Mike were here filming recently , apparently using the rolling road , and one of the film crew had said they are race fettling an MX5 to ‘race against a Ferrari’

Fake news, I’ve now been told it wasn’t an MX5 so utterly pointless thread
Don’t blame me, can’t rely on gossip
Is the “fake news” fake news??? 
Trying to keep a lid on things before program goes live?
Nah I assumed Burger Bob meant an MX5 wasn’t though, they wouldn’t tell me what it was
Who knows?
A chassis & engined tuned Rocketeer or an V8 ND could worry quite a lot in the right hands.
He dreams…

They were definitely there filming recently as either WD or BBR (cant remember which!) posted a picture of them in the workshop on their Instagram / twitter accounts (again, cant remember which).
Incidentally, I don’t suppose a red PRHT drove briefly behind you before you turned into BBR about half an hour ago?! I was just coming out of tescos and found myself behind a rather nice looking lowered grey NC turning into BBR!

That was mine, they were road testing for the map lol
Fair enough - living in Brackley I do see quite a few nice 5s every now and then round there - my own NC2 came from BBR and has the 200 kit on it.
Have to say, yours does look particularly good! Hope you enjoyed the upgrade

500 bhp from a 7 litre lump. 
In a five?!
I haven’t been watching the new programmes that have been showing up on Quest recently, but the program I did see a few seconds of which in description said Mike and Elvis were involved in (I only saw Mike) showed them with a silver Eunos asking a woman if she was interested in it.
Don’t know if they’d done anything to it race wise since I didn’t bother watching any more, but maybe the news isn’t as fake as the original OP thought.
It was a track day car, they bought for £200 and sold for I think £500, trading up, eventually to a Skyline
Yeah that’s the different series
