At least it will be more interesting than watching the Skylines clean up in the 4WD section! ![Wink](images/smilies/wink.gif)
Barbz Sheikh is well known in the Fiat tuning community. I think he might be talking down the power!!

All are turbo'd in some fashion or another!![Big Grin](images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Dan, Adam and Mark have turbo'd cars!
Bill (IIRC) is the only normally aspirated car to make the qualifications!

Was at Abbey whilst the Husband was picking up his CTR after it had the JRSC fitted. They were working on Ronnies Skyline then, what a monster. I think the RC Evo could be a dark horse, if the Izzard holds out.
Oh as for the Maestro with 500 bhp, surely tractions got to be an issue, what times is he getting. So far I think the fastest a CTR has done is 13.2 at the pod. Not to shabby. There is a DC5 Teg who is just coming sub 13's. I was looking on an American forum at the weekend and some of the USA All Motor civics were getting hi 9's....how the hell they manage that I'll never know. Thru FWD???

fookin ell the maestro is into 11/12's iirc.. Grants car is associated with the same company 'AET Turbo's'
The golf is allready a 10sec car so it will be a contender for the title, rest assured.
I wouldnt be suprised to see 9secs from that..
The maestro runs launch control iirc.. and grips very well.. ****ing flys in third..
13s is Bottom of the table at totb.
8, 9, 10 this year at a guess..

Keith Cowie's Skyline I think will be the one to watch on the 1/4 mile & top speed.
Ronnie's Skyline was on Abbey's Dynapack when I was there last week, with some very large Nitrous jets present![Big Grin](images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
The RK Tuning Skyline should be rapid as hell...
Hugh Keir's Skyline looks pretty impressive (3 litre now with bigger turbos than Keith Cowie) but less revs & in a heavy R34 Vs a R32.
All apart from the RK car have sequential gearboxes too![Smile](images/smilies/smile.gif)
CRD Supra will be very fast I think - as will Leon Greens (RUmourthat it made over 850bhp @ the hubs?)
Evo lot - the ND car should do well now it has a dog box, the RC car should be interesting if it can get some times close to it's proposed power levels, the Seahaven car lookslike it might be pretty quick (nearly 700bhp)
Cossies - Rod Tarry or Sean Bicknell seem to be the favourites?
I guess we have to wait & see! I reckon my Skyline should be good in the top speed & do fairly well in the 1/4 mile, it makes a bit more than the 700bhp they say it does on the entry form

Leon's Supra has just been mapped and it was over 1000bhp. Quote from Mark Shead who mapped Keith's Skyline....
the Skyline was hitting 200mph+ before 3/4 of a mile!
An easy 1000bhp+
That Skyline was insane
it pulled 8400rpm in 6th and stopped in 3/4mile
Top car ran faultlestly all day.
and the Norris Evo @ 675bhp & 553lb torque. They are all on Autronic

Why havnt the Ren 5gt turbos entered totb (ever!). Fair play they are slow comparred to the big boys, but in FWD they are blistering down the 1/4mile, didnt the Gt tunning, bb tunning, Euro parts etc cars used to run 12secs years ago?
