Heard Stu Collins and Crazycage couldn't break out of the 13s today but there's a couple of FWD Fords running mid to low 12s. A mk2 Fiesta and Puma both ran VERY quick apparently.

Should be interesting to see tomorrow!

Garys car has done a 13.5 at 118, the box keeps locking out of gear. Best chance is going to be in the morning when box oil is cold. Fastest was a mk2 fiesta with 12.6 @ 116/7

What's the spec of the mk2 any one got any pics?

Bobby Singh

I was there today in my Golf diesel:

13.9 @ 102mph not bad for a 1.4 ton car

MarK4

Bobby i remember been impressed with the graph but thAt time for a diesel is a proper result. Is there any room for improvement on that time?

lewismk1

Fiesta is a 2.1 zetec turbo it ran 12.6 @116!
Our puma ran a 12.8@ 116! More tomorrow!

We'll be there again today.

Bobby Singh

I guess the only the way to improve is more power, less weight etc
But I'm pleased with getting into the 13's

Rick

Bit of mapping last night as the map was rough as and Garys has just done 12.8@122. Letting box cool down at the mo.

Any idea what the YY stuff is all about on your posts?

Great result Bobby, I often wondered how your increased power would work on the road in real life, and that proves it. 5 years ago at Pod, my old Saph Cos running 300 ish bhp at the time only did 13.2 @ 100 ish. As in your Golf is as quick as my Cossie was one year Not fast for a Cossie, but still plenty quick enough in reality, and then your Golf oil burner is doing the same times near enough

Excellent

pee vee

D4 !!!!!!!??????????????????? ??

Bobby I bet you could shave 0.2 off your 60ft, which could equate to upto 0.4 off your total time IMO.

Bobby Singh

SiB - still a big difference between 13.9 and 13.2 - was it a 4x4?
Tim - I'm going pod again later this year hopefully with abit more and less smoke. I'm gona try a little wheel spin next time.
