I competed against Sarah Munns at the Brighton Speed trials one year when she told me about her 150bhp engine just been dynoed on PB rolling road etc (Miglia 1293).

I am looking at the certificate on the wall and my time then was 14.29 (Madeira Drive is not and never will be Santa Pod or Avon Park) she did a 15.3 at the same time. My car was 600kg then.

What you have to bear in mind is Miglias have to go around corners - please see Roger M's signature for further clarification on this matter.::)

Tom how did you manage a 109 on a 3.9cwp, i could only manage 94 on a 3.7 at york flat out at 7000 rpm. I was running 12" wheels and obviously your on 13's didnt think theyed make that much difference.

The migs times didnt seam that impressive but as scruffy says thair designed to go round corners as fast as poss, the suspension set up is far superior.

My RR print out shows 9050rpm on a 3.9 with A032Rs on 6.5x10s as 121.2 - this means for Tom to do a 109 was pulling 8139rpm!

Dude, there must be something wrong with your box, or its not a 3.7 FD

I run a 3.7 FD and at 6800rpm it does 103mph, as per the rollers

PS: 13s are smaller than 12s

12 seconds pass Nice!

Lightweight racer coming soon.

As Nick (scruffy) says the DON does rev to 8200rpm.

In actual fact a few things have just clicked in my mind; I am sure the soft cut rev limiter is set at 8200rpm, and once or twice I'm sure I felt the car starting to hold back reaching the quarter mile point, I think it was the soft cut limiter starting to take effect, will have to up that by a few hundred revs and see if the terminal speed can be bettered.

3.44 tom !! http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vt&tid=167553

Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

I think the real reason why they are slower than us on the 1/4 is they have around 80bhp, & 80 lbs less than us. Also a lot heavier than most of us. (not me) there 660kgs I doubt TT2 is anywhere near that.

Team Racing

my van lost a bit of weight, then i fitted a full roll centre cage and weighs 670kg with the spare wheel, passenger seat and carpet.

I know its auto as i had a good look around it the other day, Axel thought it was a 2L zetec.

I found a brief spec on a website and it said it used to be a 1926cc block with a RS turbo head, its now got a zetec engine.

EDIT:Stuart has said that it made 650bhp @7000rpm on a dyno and thats using 130bhp shot of nitrous and 28psi boost. He thinks that the engine is capable of around 100bhp more but wants to get the car to go in a straight line first.

I thought it looked like a zetec block too....
