well done to all who run

and to those who had set backs theirs always next year to show em how its done

 

Back up with Dave and Nick`s ok......

 

cheers mate, i did check with dave previous to posting tho but understand you wanted to be sure

 

No probs mate....

 

seans car really impressed me that day



got so grunt that thing once its got grip it flies

 

I would have thought all these new big power rst's would have run alot better times to be honest Alexs Heavy, shonky old cab runs 14.0 @107 And his was spec'ed 5 years ago lol

 

Some good times

Lee's 0-60 is impressive

 

Christians standing mile is pretty impressive for a bean tin

 

Some impressive results!

 

its all in the launch etc tho for a good 1/4 mile not as much to do with power

dan (fiecos) runs 13 sec all day in his xr2 & thats about 170bhp

 

Marc, you must be pleased with yours mate!

Top work, you've built a lovely car there

 

yes mate am chuffed for its 1st outing but theres lots of room for improvement

 

Now you can try timing it with you driving!

It WAS a girl that recorded those times wasn't it???

Seriously though, it's damn impressive mate! I saw the article on it and you've put so much work in

 

Just clocked the XR2's time ...I take it its not NA

 

Yep agree with Paddy, job weldone Mark

 

thanks paddy/sassy


no fella, 1.6cvh turbo

 

Fair play and well done Marc (just clocked your siggy)

 

Grey one?

His Fiesta Cossie is a bit impressive isn't it.

 

thats the 1 mate,

yes his mk3 fiesta is a piece of work

 

Thats what i was thinking. For the amount of supposed big power rst's and the like it seems its always the usual suspects that actually put down good times.

 

My congrats to all that ran.
Can I give special congrats to Euan & Andy for joining the Triple Tops club still a select group. Well Done !!. Most pleased for Andy another Oldie in the Cosssie Top 10.

 

look forward to seeing some footage of these cosworths on next months dvd

 

Wasn't bad at all Rod for an 'oldie' <cough> and a 20 yr old car, which is purely a track car and not set up for doing top speed runs

 

what i was also thinking when i saw the times, still hard to break the 180 figure for most cossies so weldone

 

Just shows that Andy's is a proper cossie and not just bullshit figures!

Well done mate!

 

Cheers Rod

was a top day for us

was only going for top speed so thats why no other figs....was only floring it from 4th onwards

i have some pics and vids if folks want to see??

 

 

yeah put em up mate,

i deffo wanna see these

 

you must of posted them a milisecond before my reply

 

have an incar vid but would need to send it to someone for some messing with before i can post it...

basically needs ripped then changed format

 

Well done lads.

180+ boys


is there a reason why martins times not printed?


Also was the run way similar to brunters? shorter of longer?

 

his car broke before he ran any times at all...

 

i was using 1.7 miles, some was uneven run off( to start on) and then mostly smooth runway..

 

on your top speed run from stand still, how much distance did you take to get to 184?

 

1.7 i think?

was using the run off to get the car going and into 3rd..WOT then it would wheelspin then chnage gear..full traction in 4th.

hard to compare to brunters as you dont start off coming round the corner

 

I'm still intrigued by my top speed as I saw 6800-6900rpm in 5th and with bigger tyres than I ran at Brunters last year (where I only saw 6600rpm).

Other than that, I'm pleased.

 

eh...............184.7 thankyou

 

i found at brunters, doing a stand start or using the bend didn't make much difference on mine, not even 1 mph @ the end.

 

thtas what Rod said aswell...

how hard were you launching?

i was taking it pretty easy until 3rd gear

 

the only problem with all the fwd cars is putting the power down.. the 1/4 mile terminal speeds tells you the power there, hell i should be doing 11s quaters with my ternimals, but launching the car with minimal wheel spin is so hard, i've done better times with far less power.
i'm going to address my boost control with a boost controller where the boost can get mapped in progressively and smaller wheels with sticky tyres wont do any better then 13s with 17 inch wheels, i either bog down or wheel spin to death.. none of the cars have a smooth power delivery its all or nothing
