What class was it in?

There was a post about it doing a 12.3, yet it wasnt listed in the FWD class, was it running slicks or something?

Is this Dave Bull's car?

Think he's a member on here, not sure how often he uses the site though.

Yes its dave bull's car, and yes it has a pulsar engine, I dont know if its fwd or 4wd though.

If its fwd it was quite good, if its 4wd I would say he has his work cut out, lol

He sounded scottish, so it sounds like the same one, lol

Was it running on gay slicks then?

Im just trying to work out why he didnt get 6th place in the FWD class behind the 2 red corsas and in front of the red nova.

If it IS FWD, what gearbox do we think he's using...? Will a Sunny engine drop straight into a SR20 Primera P10 FWD?

Its 101% FWD.

He is (or was last time I remember) using a stock Sunny GTI gearbox, they do well, lots of FWD SR20DET powered cars around using that box.

And yeah, it pretty much bolts straight into an Almera or Primera too.

Suprised if its on slicks TBH, ive seen it run bloody fast times on treaded tyres in the past.

Quite sure I read that its lighting them on the 1/8 still and he gets close to 130mph terminals.

Clearly has loads left in it yet, very impressive car and no disrespect to the other fwd stuff but it is nice to see something slightly different for a change.
