Hi Guys Mechell from the MLR here (don't shoot)

Just wondered if you knew about an event that has been arranged for you guys??? (lots don't seem to know about it which is confusing) - anyhoo It is on the 8th March 2009 at Marham...

bit of info

The "30-130 and Top Speed" event was created to stop all the pub talk surrounding tuning and to understand 'real world' performance, and which modifications / packages really work, and RAF Marham is the perfect environment with 2800 yards of immaculate tarmac!

How does it work?
Using VBox technology each car enters the start box below 30mph and then accelerates hard so it exits at over 30mph and continues to 130mph as quickly as possible. There are no more rules - just do whatever you think is the fastest way of accelerating to 130mph - and on to a max speed if you want - it's all about being as quick as possible!

The GPS data logging records everything your car does - you can have as many runs as you can fit in and try anything you like, such as in gear times, 0-60, top speed, brake tests, etc and review all the data later, but for the purposes of this event we'll pull off the valid 30-130 times and top speed and display them on the results leaderboard throughout the day.

We've measured a few different cars over the years to put things into perspective - although we haven't measured a Scoob yet!

Simon Norris - Evo9SWB - 6.19
Porsche 911 Turbo (X50) - 13.44
Porsche 911 GT3 - 15.73
Ferrari 360 - 16.14
Skyline GTR32 - 20.01
Monaro - 33.91
Honda Accord Type R - 40.64

Here's the result from previous MLR 30-130 events;

I thought it was being run through SIDC but can't seem to find much info about it - and without you it can't happen


MLR info is here if you need it * * * 30-130 is back! * * * - Mitsubishi Lancer Register Forum this could be the last time we can get onto Marham as they are suffering noise issues like everyone else...


Not wishing to step on any toes here or elsewhere - just I can't find any info that you guys should know!! Please excuse me if it is already about and I'm just not seeing it..

Hope to see some of you there

 

Sounds great

We participated in a similar event back in 2004 - 2005 "Top speed challenge " @ RAF Woodbridge , It may well be of interest to you to post this on Welcome to Scoobycity - The Subaru Owners Club > there neck of the woods

Hi me again



if you want to take part in this - we NEED 40 cars for it to happen. And it is going to be far quicker and easier for you to get me your information



mechell@lancerregister.com..... or call 0845 12 526237 It is a great day - would be a shame if it didn't happen, just because you lot didn't know about it

 

Yes please - as said we need 40 cars minimum (can take 60 ) but it's not going to happen without you

 

Only scoobs? might get a few quick nobles along

 

Cool but only Scoobys at the moment - unless we can't get 40 of you along??? which I find hard to believe?

 

CHANGE OF PLAN - YES nobles welcome a lot of time and effort has gone into getting this day sorted for you guys - be a shame if it doesn't happen cos you didn't know about it


Day is the 8th March...... Cost is £95........ CLEARANCE DETAILS NEED TO GET TO US ASAP!!!

 

What day is this ?? 7th or 8th????


Might be up for it not sure if cars going to be ready but could bring both...

 

it's the 8th for you lot


(7th is an MLR day)

 

ok when do you need to know by??

 

ASAP - security details MUST be with my by the 13th February - or you won't get cleared...


I know it's short notice - and I apologize for that but I have only just now taken over getting this sorted...

Not a problem. Still need all clearance details - and you won't be able to bring your own car onto base - from the gatehouse you will need to grab a lift in from a *runner*

Not sure if I can make it but will see if any of the other Noble's are up for it.
