I am just hoping the box stands up to it LOL....

be a good laugh though.....

Will be fitting this weekend.

Still on real road tyres though LOL

225 toyo's which are shit

 

Is that a provisional excuse I hear??!!

What times are you hoping for??

 

I hope it goes well mate

what spec are you going for

 

No excuse mate....

I wanna drive it there and drive it home with no spares LOL...

Honestly...

175 tops and into the 11's for the 1/4

Probably be 160 and 13's

 

Good luck brother.

If your motor goes like it id in Germany you will storm it...

 

Good to hear Steve,

But you need some different tyre's, maybe if you want to be road legal, try R888's.

 

good luck with it steve

james

 

good luck Steve.

 

spec or STFU

 

Doesn't want R888's for dragging mate sidewalls way to stiff, be better off with the ones already on it! Idealy needs some road legal drag tyres to make the most out of it, they dont cost the earth either and could make all the difference.

 

get a set of mickey T's or a set of hoosier street legal drag radials

 

Good Luck Steve

 

good luck mate,nice to see somebody making a effort. iam off to see martoon shortly for a bit of work on the escos.

 

good luck mate hope it all goes well

 

God luck, car definately has the power for it, so fingers crossed you get an eleven out of it

 

you need





a






lighter








right foot!

 

good luck ding - would be great to see it in the 11's - AVE IT!

 

Light right foot Dingy























Not a hope but at least he puts his car on the line

 

Dingy,
Not sure why you are struggling with T1-R's as mine were really good the other week at ScoobyNetLive.

As already said.... perhaps you should look at getting two sets. Perhaps 888's for the handling and then normal T1-R's for the drag stuff (or something else better suited to that discipline). Of course if it rains on the day at TOTB.... you better think again for the specific discipline!

Good luck mate.

 

Fagin

Heard a LOT of people complaining about the Toyo's, car all over the place.

 

Ding !

Does this mean you wont be at the Classic Ford Show then ?

 

Rick,

Mmmm perhaps it's dependant on car application and setup , as mine has shitloads of grip/traction and handling is spot on.

I know the T1R is one of the preferred WET's road legal tyre for track use though.

 

Possibly, not tried them myself. Was more stability issues i think than grip.

 

toyo's work very well on my mates tvr griffith 500

 

TAKE MY drag radials for the sprint.

 

Toyos are T1R's are the worse tyre i have ever had - but they are legal so am gonna keep using them LOL...

Butch will bell u tonight....

Fagin - u have 4x4 u pussy and no power

 

Whats cars this an whats the spec? (not into detail as i wont have a clue lol)

MB.

 

When is it ?

 

500bhp GRP4 ish Tarmac MK2

 

Last sunday

 

No then LOL.....

 

My Toyo's are perfect in the dry, have loads of grip (especially in Germany). Shit in the wet thou

What size tyres are you running Steve?

 

Me too. And i have the advantage of driving hunderds of customers cars on teh road on many different tyres and i can tell a T1R a mile away, it feels unstable and scary.

Sticky.. yours are T1S i recall?

 

Are they? i'll have to check at the weekend when i dig the Comps out. If they are i will except

 

Get some sticky tyres on there Steve,youve seen the results in the recent tests with cars with less power,your car flys,just needs sticky tyres now. You can get either Yoko 0048r's or Toyo r888's. Or go mad and get some mickey thompson's Terry davies done a quarter mile time of 10.01 @140mph at 7700rpm in 4th gear on sunday with them on

 

what w the best tires u ever tried?????

 

Dunlop Slicks LOL - road tyres i liked the old toyo's.

A001 yoko's were awesome along with A008's LOL

 

So good in fact they are standard fitment on TVR's i believe. They certainly are on ALL the cars in my local TVR dealer. They are great in a fwd application on my fiesta too

Perhaps they suit some cars in sizes and applications and not others. I could definitley imagine them to feel squirmy with extended hard usage such as the ring or a track session tho

 

so did the mod's Help????

Wot times did you get??????
