The 1017bhp Vauxhall has entered but not a lot of Mega stuff thus far.

what a bloody shame i took my interior out. fuck it

 

Russ

 

Rod what sort of speeds are the mildly tuned Porsche turbos doing ?

 

Russ,

your car is also empty isnt it? What a stupid rule anyway. Just because you have no interior doesnt mean you have a race car only suitable for the track. Mine is tax, tested, insured and obviosuly runs dot marked tyres.

Good luck to Ade

 

E-Mail sent to Fighting Torque

 

Dave,

you putting all the interior back in then mate?

 

No l cant its a welded in cage for safety so will see what the reply like

 

let me know how you get on mate. see you at 6.30am tomorrow lol

 

Yes see you tomorrow bright and early!!

 

we must be MAD

 

Its all good regards my entry, just talking about noise level at the moment which im sure will affect me and ade, will report back on there reply

 

What about spectators?

 

Well i wont pass this im sure, need to find a noise meter

Noise limit is a sensible 103dba at 3/4 throttle at 0.5 meteres from exhaust.

 

Dave,

they say its ok for your car re: no interior and cage because of the safety aspect of it yes?

 

If they are only using a static test @ 103db then I reckon you might be suprised Dave. You tend to get most the problems on big turbo power cars on the drive by meters when the turbo is at full chat.

 

Yes car has no problems, but i think the exhaust is

 

Hi Rich my car is totally stripped apart from the dash and a steering wheel i also plan to use the car every day maybe we should both have a moan ???

Russ

 

what reason can i use for having no interior? i have no cage

 

It was eaten by rats and you have not replaced it

 

.

Thats good Dave, mine would be allowed in (without gas) if it was ready, but it wont be .

Anymore entries, not all high powered cars in the list a few around 300 horses, so a 400bhp Cosworth would be Ok.

Nearly all the cars last year were below 180mph only a trailered Nitroused Skyline & Steves Granada troubled the 190's

 

Joel's Granada would be good to see if it was finished and could meet the rules

would be good to see steve and joels grannys doin the bizz

Paul

 

i thought this was all big power stuff.shame mines not up to scratch at mo.mines full interior etc but on 3.9 geraing wouldnt do a high top end i dont think

 

interesting , hmmmmmmmmmm

support , spectator passes @15quid, checking my callender.

 

Pity this is so far south,or i would have been up for this

cheeRS stu

 

Stick a pole bang in the middle at the back, like a strut brace on its side and claim it as a cage.

Benni.

 

It is a bit far, all the good things are , moving south if i win the lottery

 

put a dog cage in it

surely if its got an mot its eligable or at loeast debateable for entry

 

in the video i think they said 60 entrants?
How many runs would you get at it ??
think i will go down to this looks mint

 

I don't plan on doing too many runs, two or three max.

 

The RCM Gobstopper, ND Bogey, Jun Super Lemon etc... are all MOT'd, insured & could quite easily be tax'd for the event.

 

Mmmm. Checked the entry list yesterday, my entry has had it's status changed, no longer confirmed. What's that all about? :-(

 

Sadly, after the fiasco/joke that was last years event....I wouldnt attend even if they paid me.


Good luck to anyone who does though....maybe they can get their timing gear to work this year, and they might even make the distance a proper mile !!!!
