Quarter mile times...
Ok so basically I wanted to see what everyone has ran at Santa pod or elsewhere.
I haven't run personally yet but will be soon.
Could everyone list the car, power, drive (fwd, rwd, 4x4) and obviously your time.
Could be quite interesting to see what cars do what.
Cheers Billy

Yes , that fiesta spec is only about 145-150bhp being generous, even if it was stripped with drag slicks it wouldnt get those times

I'd like to think I could get in the 12's.
850kg 360bhp mk4 escort rwd cosworth?
But now I've seen a zectec s can do it.... I'm surely dipping into the 10's.... Right?

What's the reason the more powerful supra was slower than the GTR? 1.2 seconds difference is quite a lot? I'm guessing the GTR just launched a hell of a lot better?

I didn't even launch the gtr for 10.7 @ 144.7 mph that was just in drive and hit the throttle
the supra wouldn't grip at all below about 80 mph. my gtr is capable of a 9 im sure on a full bore run
