Steven tried it , He got worse times than me >> He missed gears big style, He would Im sure do better than me if he got fully used to my car , (as he is now) I do get good 60ft times 1.7 I think ?? I blame the jap 6 speed for me not been in the 11s , afaik all the lads who put 6 speeds in there classics for the track have gone back to stronger 5 speeds , mainly for better (longer) gearing. But as I say I will keep trying, cheers Alan.

 

What is your site called mate

 

Same in the evo world, the 5 speeds seem to run better quarter times, plus like you said they are stronger, I thought though that the 6 speed was stronger in scooby's

 

In 2 months time ill tell you what a standard MY05 spec c can do.

 

Yes 6 speeders are strong , But a up-rated 5 speed are as strong,

 

Only time i have done it, was 14.1 bug wrx with decat.

Like others have said, was scared to do more as didnt want to smash the box, uprated 5 speed now so looking forward to having another craxk with additional mods

 

My weight advantage and close ratio gearbox certainly helps my lack of power compared to you guys. I did a 12.43 at Shakespeare in 2005 in my Gtir RB running about approx 260bhp (0.1bar more than when I did a 12.7 with a proven 246) I'm crossing the line in 5th at about 6700, so already past peak power. 3 bust water hoses kept me off the strip last year.

I also did a 12.6 at Elvington (1.6 60ft according to their timing gear) with a major slipping clutch on the monsoon day when AndyF span out on slicks. (The clutch died the next day)

 

Not done a quarter in this one Alan, it was in your green car with the sloppy gear change

You do have an 11 second car there, for sure, dont forget when you got your 12.5 you had a slipping clutch.

 

Slipping the clutch will give you good 60ft times, but knacker your clutch.

 

you always have good excuses, sloppy gear change, should be a good year, how far off his your steven to coming back out and running a quarter,

 

Your new car will not be standard for more than ten minutes,

 

12.5s 1.6s 60ft

That was at Avon Park, cold track and cold R888's...... car was spinning and squirming all through 1st and 2nd. Pity about the conditions and choice of car setup, as I was just starting to get used to 1/4m'ing again.

370-380bhp - Newage - 6Sp box

Who knows what this year will bring.

 

LOL, Alan was used to the sloppy gear change on his old green car, i wasnt

My car is about 20 metres from the back door , its been running since late november, i did a track day at Elvington on the 9th December, which was a hoot, 70+ miles of absolute madness , so it's ready to rock and roll again, although i need to put a new tensioner on it and the oil cooler before i do anymore track/drag work with it.

Time attack will be taking my spare focus this year, with the odd trip to a drag day or too.

 

remarkably similar to my own times

I was going to do the time attack series, under club challenge, till i went to donno and bust the gearbox, put me off, its alright for you rich accountants

 

i was thinking of doing the time attack this year ??

 

11.201 @ 127mph 1.789 60ft

Joe.....

 

If it's a white one then it'll be quick ...

TX.

 

Yes mate it is white, when do you get yours?

 

Does anyone know how much a 4 door '95 wrx weighs? trying to get an estimate off the link on the other page.

 

As per my location she's been here for a few weeks after spending 7 weeks on a boat ... should get the keys next week It's been a long wait however I'm sure it will be worth it!

TX.

 

With an absolutely boggo standard v3 type R, the best i managed at the pod was a 13.253@105.2 mph, 60 ft of 1.9something

Had a few mods, running 296bhp now (an extra 21 ) and best i could get was a 13.01@108 although couldn't get traction so 60 ft were 2.2's

Should make mid 12's i reckon if i can get a good launch, which i find dificult at the pod

 

will hopefully have another crack at the 1/4 v.soon

best currently is 12.44 in a 285bhp 2003 wrx with a 45 shot of NOS.

Now have 520 on tap so should see a nice low 11

 

Whens your next planned outing then neilo san, SSO?

 

see if you can beat a rusty td05

 

ill do my best Bobbert. Yep Dill, it will get its christening at SSO...wont have an oppty beforehand.

 

If it was driven well, what 1/4 should i expect to see from mine on its return.

built 2.0 running MD321h

few other supporting mods.

Has PPG so not too concerned about box damage

02WRX

 

12.0 "if" driven well.

 

so i should be able to achieve 13 then
