Ah ! so they havent taken a deposit on it yet ! that explains why it wasnt on track

 

Shouldn't be too long though

 

i hope its fast, coz their scoob wasnt its 550 bhp i think and a 320 bhp scooby kicked his ***

 

moses

did you go to the big one?

 

I saw the skyline in action at crail and it was pretty quick, don't know if it's got 750 brake as their supra seemed to beat it nearly every run (only just though).

 

their supras gets its **** kicked from andys ra and kevs cossie


and drb5 mate i was working dude hopefully next time

 

Supra has crap traction, but ran an 11.9 @ 131mph at the max power day this year, spinning the wheels in 4th with slicks on as it crossed the line.

Skyline ran low 12's that day, dont know what it ran today, only did 1 run before I left around half past 1.

The Subaru (with allegedly 505 BHP then it jumped the rollers) did lose to Kev's P1 at Crail, but today it seemed on song, and ran an 11.9 1/4 mile, Kevs best is 12.6

At Knockhill last week Kev beat the Skyline in the 250m uphill drag in the warmups, Skyline didnt get the best of starts. In the eliminators Kevs clutch played up and he got a bad launch, and the Skyline put him out, would havebeen interesting to see who would have won over 250m if both cars launched properly. With a 60ft time of 1.7 secs, it's hard to catch Kev's P1.

Calders BHP claims always strike me as a bit optimistic, but with both the Supra and the Subaru having posted sub 12 second times this year, you can hardly say they are slow.

Is Kev still selling his P1? Haven't seen him for ages! I thought his P1 was standard or am I thinking of the wrong Kev? The Kev I'm thinking about is in the SS-R.

 

Same car, Same Kev. Its still for sale.

 

yeah ross will tell u its fecking fast



thats the one gordon it only has a exhaust and induction i think

What am I doing wrong then? Why's it so fast with just an induction kit and exhaust?

 

may be thinking of the wrong P1 but does he not run a dawes too?, with no knocklink , which imo is risky.

if it is the same car it could very well be more powerful than yours gordon but I would still rather have yours since it's mapped for the uk and the mods you have.

edit to speak proper
