I'm sure most of our times are quite slow Danny to what you would call fast fwd cars but we have to start somewhere.

PM me some details if you can get my car running 10's or atleast a 1.7 6-ft !

Only class my mini in is "fast road car for use on trackdays too"

So its MOT not MSA that matters to me mate.
(well not that that really matters either, got a mate who is a tester, lol)

were not talking about predicted 1/4 mile times or top speeds but I should think that will be near the top of each of them.

Robs astra will be a good contender for the 1/4 mile for sure.

chips mini will just be .. well lets just say too quick for a mini, I dont know what to expect from that tbh, quick but scary

Jonnybravo what power can you make? pm me more details if your serious, I'm sure we'll see 12. 6's from what you already have with some startline work.

Dingy, you really are your own worst enemy. You do a great job of making everyone see you in a really bad light.

Well done for that.

And thats without any intervention from me!!

I'm surprised that Jamsport even want to relate it to its previous incarnation. It's a TOTALLY different car now in almost every conceivable way. I certainly look at it as a new car on the scene, rather than an improved version of an old one.

my car is running approx 155bhp off nitrous with 100shot

going to up the jets to 125 for the next trip out.

My new engine to go in will be about 210bhp off nitrous with 100 shot on top.

one thing I have noticed since I last run the car was that back then I was running rose jointed tie bar brackets and now I'm back on just polybushed ones due to a mate leaving the brackets loose !

I get a lot of wheel judder when doing the burnout at the start and I imagine I'm getting a lot of it when I launch, the car felt a lot tighter with the rose jointed parts fitted so I need to get them fixed for a start

Alot was learnt from the old version and this will help the new one be greatly improved.
