Just looking back, they are stunning times, but largely due to the 60ft time , very consistant. Back when mine was running low 12's, my 60ft's wer 1.9+

Steven:

Thanks mate.

Am using a 4.2kg flywheel so it can be fussy to launch. Yesterday I just couldn't get the wheels to spin enough and it just kept bogging. Sunday it could have launched like that all day long. 1.6s 60ft should be possible.

What were the quickest times on yours btw?


Still room for improvement so watch this space

Bob

Excellent time. Something to aim for on my next visit to the pod in a couple of weeks.

Where did you run that time btw?

Have you completed your TOTB squad yet?

Finally get around to doing the tedious task of posting full details:

Quite a warm day at the Pod. Got there at around midday and met up with Tas.


Run 1: (good clean run)

Reaction: 2.175
60ft: 1.729
330ft: 5.018
660ftMPH: 89.28
660ft: 7.748
990ft: 10.045
1/4 ET: 12.097
1/4MPH 114.24


Run 2: (car pulled to one side so had to back off)

Reaction: 1.668
60ft: 1.985
330ft: 5.392
660ftMPH: 88.27
660ft: 8.129
990ft: 10.434
1/4 ET: 12.485
1/4MPH 114.56

Run 3: (heads-up against this http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y4/...B/STA50001.jpg)

Reaction: 0.407
60ft: 1.897
330ft: 5.244
660ftMPH: 88.73
660ft: 7.968
990ft: 10.266
1/4 ET: 12.321
1/4MPH 113.64
(win by 0.76)


Run 4: (v Tas)

Reaction: 0.372
60ft: 1.919
330ft: 5.361
660ftMPH: 87.34
660ft: 8.127
990ft: 10.44
1/4 ET: 12.514
1/4MPH 113.57

Run 5: (missed 2 gears so aborted run

Reaction: 2.051
60ft: 1.806
330ft: 5.522
660ftMPH: 88.05
660ft: 8.334
990ft: 10.676
1/4 ET: 12.755
1/4MPH 112.18


Was aiming for 12.1secs@115mph so I am very pleased with the results . Changing shift points, as AndyF suggested has helped alot, particularly noticeable on the terminals

My personal bests have now gone (in day order) 12.49@110mph (santa pod), 12.21@111mph (Avon Raceway) to 12.09@114mph (Santa Pod).

60ft wasnt 'perfect' so I still feel there is a little more room for improvement.

Quickest car on UK internals?

Very happy with the car. No tweaks ever needed since it was mapped and no raceday tweaks to boost or ignition.

Hi Kim.

Vids were crap.













Only kidding

A couple were okay but its the camera that was crap and not the operator

Will take it back to the shop and get a proper camcorder methinks.

I know, I know. Just trying to be a tight git I suppose

Wont be able to come to JapShow unfortunately as I have a wedding to attend.

Tas got v respectable times and I'm sure he'll improve on them. He just needs to resist heads-up temptation.

You going to have a go down the strip this time?

looks like the track did it's usual trick of getting less and less grippy as the day wore on, all very familiar at the Pod on rwyb days I'm afraid.

Cool start to the day seemed to help too, as your power dropped off during the day.

1st run was after midday.

60ft: 1.729
330ft: 5.018
660ftMPH: 89.28
660ft: 7.748
990ft: 10.045
1/4 ET: 12.097
1/4MPH 114.24


Best at Avon Raceway:

60ft: 1.701
330ft: 5.043
660ftMPH: 91.07
660ft: 7.783
990ft: 10.123
1/4 ET: 12.210
1/4MPH 111.77


All on the same spec. Avon Raceway wasnt cool either though.

Was shifting earlier at Pod whereas I was shifting later at Avon. Quicker/earlier gearchange into 2nd gear too at the run at Pod.

The surface at Pod wasnt as consistant as Avon Raceway.

Still think there's a little to be had off the time.

No idea Bob, you probably know your car better than I do, and what it can do. It's be a while since someone has bothered to try getting below 12s with a turbo of that size, and this just goes to show it can make a quick car. The terminals show it's got some real power.

Neil: I was shifting around 6500rpm. Your shift point will depend on your turbo and where you are making power.

Kev: Cheers mate. Come down to North Weald for sprinting next month?

Paul: Wel I cant increase the power or anything, its on one map which is my everyday road map. Can save some weight on a alu bonnet and lightweight battery I guess. Not sure if it will be significant enough though. I know I can launch a 60ft 0.028sec quicker as it is.

I dont know about easy mate. Can't be arsed to do anything more than the battery and bonnet.

Cant believe I'm chasing 11s now Was happy when I finished the upgrades, to run anything in high 12s, knowing that 12.5secs 'might' have been possible.

Does it ever end?
