I bet my first wank came quicker than your first mini turbo


These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.

Joanne is my drag name *hehe!* didn't you know !

here is my first and the best of my run times
Sat first ever run : 60 - 2.668
330 - 7.265
660 - 10.895
mph - 67.51
990 - 13.895
1320 - 16.593
mph - 86.12

5 runs later Sat: 60 - 2.624
330 - 6.744
660 - 10.158
mph - 71.12
990 - 13.054
1320 - 15.666
mph - 88.87

After a bit of a beer clouded first run I got back into it and managed another 5 runs and managed my best time in a great race wth Keith : 60 - 2.606
330 - 6.696
660 - 10.099
mph - 71.39
990 - 12.984
1320 - 15.587
mph - 89.15

The only good excuse I come up with for my poor performance is the 10gl of fuel I was carrying, maybe not a bright move filling up at the station on the way into Stratford on the Friday night, and still managed to have enough fuel to get home with 1 full tank after 10 runs.

Jo has the bug and wants to race me at the POD and has been coming up with weight saving ideas for the MK1 now.

I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.

11.96 out of the box on Sat morning on fuel only NO GAS, then later on Sat 11.80 with a dash of gas.

However Sunday it didn't run well and there is water in one of the cylinders, bummer.

But hey, we were aiming for an 11 and did it, I'm bloody chuffed with that. The 11.96 was with a 60ft of 1.79 sec, the acceleration from that was unbelieveable.

It was a fantastic weekend. It was a bit of a chore getting the car back together and ready for the event but it was worth it for sure. Got back to the workshop at midnight and once the cars and tools were unloaded got back to the flat at 01.00,

Denis I'm glad you got home OK, just a shame the new engine didn't work out better.

Simon good to meet you and I've got to thank you for that final race, managed to find that wee bit to get under 15 secs on the Sunday after running three 14.9s on Saturday.

Best run was

2.411 - 60
6.247 - 330
9.581 - 660
73.76 - MPH1
12.374 - 990
14.91365 - 1320
91.38 - MPH2

Good to put a few faces to names over the weekend.

Denis - good to see you got back ok.

Simon, Jo, good to meet you both - hopefully see you at MITP.

We'll I'm pretty happy with the way things went for the estate. After finding out the timing was 20deg out, I knocked a bit off my times with a best on sunday of 16.6. The slip is in the car somewhere.

I was casting my mind back to when we first brought this car down to the show back around 2000 when I'm sure we ran in the 15's. The head is different and it ran a weber for a start but it was the same cam. Got a few ideas to get a bit more out of it for MITP

Didn't anyone have a look or did it have the bonnett on?

Amazed that these cars get faster every year, i remember breaking into the 12's, now 11's! incredible stuff for a FWD car with the aerodynamic efficiency of a brick!

Jimbo still has the original engine.
Auction winner backed out on him.

I thought that, but it looked the same lump to me. Maybe it was all a big ruse!
