I'm sure Rod mentioned it ages ago.

 

Brunters, and so far the date appears to be just down as "spring"

 

Thanks Rodney i aim to please.

I wouldnt want to drive an old ford past 150mph so u are quite correct in your reply!

 

would be good to see what luca and the trolley could achieve at this

 

Fuck that, rather see what they'd do with a set of corners in front of them rather than a straight dull drag strip!

 

They have use of the circuit for the day as well I believe, so you can do both

 

Just to throw you off the scent

 

I agree, would be interesting to see what it would do...

 

Am i wrong in thinking RAF Woodbridge was the venue last time?

 

i think you should go for it mate!

 

It moves about, was at woodbridge when Rod took his car and had it on the stand a few years ago when I was there.

 

Sorry i forgot about this thread, ive other things on my mind.

Bit of confusion here between Vmax & Fighting Torque.

Fighting Torque is at Woodbridge & my car is banned , i tried to enter but the e-mail was blocked as unsuitable. Ade came 3rd.
Vmax is at Brunters & i ran their in November with a cage.

Im going to enter this event but im not sure if i can attend as to stop spectators just turning up you have to enter to get the date.

Ive a couple of health problems & awaiting two operations so may not be able to attend.

 

Why is your car banned?

Hope the op's go well.

 

good luck with the op Rod

 

They are trying to keep the event sensible for road cars. Ive no problem with that.

 

Oh right, yeah, can see their point i suppose lol

 

I'd love to do this

 

It looks like my entry has been accepted but no date yet so lets hope it all comes together. Bit sad not to see other entrants from the Ford world this really is a chance to race the toffs. You can now order a special edition Vmax watch if you take part with vmax decal & your speed can go on - Ł400 so i may be tempted to join the toffs.
Have fired up the 'push system' on my Nitrous system for the first time since 2006. Had to replace 2 seals & tighted up one joint to seal the 1500psi pressure, not bad after 5 years.
Want to take power figures on the Nitrous so we can control power to circa 900bhp. May use a hub dyno but not sure yet.
Will see if i can get a mag along to Vmax should make a good feature.

 

The entry list thus far--
Surely some of you racers out there want to prove how fast your cars are, heres the chance to prove it against the clock.

The entry list thus far.
Surely you want to get amongst these boys & kick a few butts.
Im beginning to think that Topspeed running will stop when i quit probably after this run if all goes well. Thats a shame.

Good luck Rod.

I think the 30-130 events would be well suited to some Fords, pity only the Focus RS boys enter.

Rick

 

Been accepted, date is early May if anyone is still interested. In for op early April so should all be fine. Best ring Mark now & see if Greg is free that day or I will be driving myself.

 

Looks like a decent line up of cars so far, looks like it will be you and Kens Porsche at the top of the table unless a few other big power cars enter.

Martin you need to get the 3door's engine in the Mondeo for this.

 

be good to watch mate wish my car had enough miles on it by then and i would of had a go

what tyres do you suggest for a top speed run rod im on 17"s at mo

 

The Monaro won last time so probably the car to beat as its capable of 210+mph.

 

Jez did 206mph last time, not sure what the distance was.

 

There will probably be a TVR there this time, I guy I know has just recently done 202mph @ Brunters in an LS engined Cerbera.

 

If Moonstone Steve enters i will

Steve

 

.....why wouldn't you run on your own?


Cheers,
Grant

 

If one of the car breaks the other one can give them a lift home lol

Steve

 

Good call Steve... if you fail to prepare, then prepare to fail.


Cheers,
Grant

 

Bugger, Bugger Bugger .

Marks on holiday that week so its a nogo .
Still will press on with the Nitrous preparation on the RR maybe next week.
Will try a 100 shot & then a 150 to see what we get.
Will now probably hire Brunters myself.

 

Come on Steve lets have a answer.

Steve

 

good luck with the op rod and good luck on beating a load of them cars
