Had the car down at santa pod for the classic ford show last weekend and made it into the 11s!

Got a 12.1 on the road tyres and then an 11.7 on the slicks!

Wow that's a weapon! Love that guys videos too

 

im at crail raceway next weekend for german car day, hoping to get mid 14's in my automatic merc diesel estate. I see your Scotland. do you go to crail?

 

shes got some ponys under the hood almost 120 mph

 

I used to do Crail but not been down the strip since the car had a c18det, managed low 13's back then . The golf r and s3 boys get it all their own way at Crail, track's great for them. I've now fitted Nissan sr20det, mapped by Alan at AVA, made 300 rwhp .

 

Try doing third gear burnout,and as soon as it starts to white smoke off tyres keep it pinned just out the bleach box,third gear will have them smoking quicker also ,plus looking at the video you deffo need it corner weighted with you in it,will make a big difference especially in the 60ft and also when changing gear,unless you pulling on steering wheel when shifting lol

 

Santa Pod is named after one of Father Christmas' testicles.

 

do you know the name of the other testicle?

 

Nice!

Whats the 0-60ft on that?

 

Thanks for the comments. the 60ft times are 1.7 and that's the reason I wanted to put the video up to see if there was any ideas where I could improve. I got the back axle gears changed at Hauser Racing and he also said to do third gear burnout, i'll do this next time, I got the car corner weighted last year but I've no idea how to use this information. Do you think the back of the car is too soft , had the coilovers down to last two clicks..
thanks Jim .

 

Depends on your spring rate ,pounds? Also tyre pressures but as soon as you see thick white smoke then keep it pinned and pull forward should only take 5 to 10 secs max in 3rd gear ,and if you can get in the 1.5 range 60ft you will knock 3 to 4 tenths off your pb

 

Does this mean anything to you - The rear spring rate is 160lbs , front springs 225 lbs .The total weight with a driver is 1048.5, left front 322.0 right front 252.5, left rear 240.5, right rear 233.5. Front weight 574.5 -54.79%, rear 474 - 45.21%, left 562.5 - 53.65%, right 486 - 46.35%, lf/rr 555.5 - 52.98%, rf/lr 493 - 47.02%, r bite 7 . The slicks were 18 psi , front tyres 35psi

 

Wow that’s a heavy Anglia unless you weigh 40 stones,that cant be right mate,but them corner weights are all over the place ,sent pm

 

Thanks mate , I could probably do with shedding a few pounds.
