My best was a 13.2 on 15psi. Unfortunatley I never got a clean run after turning the boost up to 20psi...missed gears, boost hose blew off, hard cut kept cutting the engine. :ohewll:

Im gunnig for the 12's now! *happy*

some going on jsut a bar of boost!


Yeah it went suprising well. I'd lost an exhaust stud somewhere so my exhaust was blowing, and probably why it wouldn't run any higher than 10psi without adjusting the bleed valve.

My best terminal was 112.86 on 15psi, so im hoping the extra boost will get the terminal speeds up!

Well, We had a lot of Fun this weekend, I made 23 runs in the end with a new best of-
13.960 @ 106.52mph with 12psi of boost.

Oh and thanks to the all New TM live & interactive search function, that was on hand, Saturday night to work out why my car sounded like a supersonic tefal kettle, especially Robert for his patience and persistence, Tom (The milling machine) Fenton and Andy for a loan of his butt plug but we will not get in to that now.

Was a great weekend.

Thanks guys.

And I know I didn't take it for a run but I did win my group in the show and shine and picked up £50 in prize money today so well chuffed with that. Paid for all my fuel there and back so all was not lost !!

And boy was that a great drive home. Especially the look on the drivers face as I went past the New Mini Cooper S on the way back.

Chew on my Carbon Fumes you piece of crap.

Great weekend. Just a shame some had problems.

Richard.

Minivanless, but reluctantly happy living with the decision. There'll be another one day.

Stupid bloody metro van. Rear exhaust mounting snapped of (again, but a different bit of the bracket this time) on the M40. Ended up taking it of for the last 50 miles home...

I did my personal best of 14.97 at 94mph! On about 10psi of boost with a pretty poor launch tbh, once id gathered grip i just bogged but as soons as the power came of it was off like a rocket. Thanks for all the help in finding my boost, my arms are cut to shreds from simons engine bay as he needed my preying mantis arms. One of the best weekends ive had at Avon, specially the part where i got my maroon force racing t shirt!

I lost my boost on my last 2 runs, i then realised this was due to one of my hoses blowing off. *Clapping*

1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.

Mike why are the hoses blowing off, have you got beads on the ends to stop them pushing off?

No tom, however the place where the hose had come off the clamp was loose, but i checked them all for sure. So i think that one is goosed. Im going to order some ally boost pipe and new clips! Ill bob over in week with my tintercooler we can nock up a new cable for emerald while im there.

my worst avon for years, car was really down own power, changing boost from from 15 to 30psi made no difference with 80mph terminals, really odd. I need to study the data logs to find the problem.

Did a compression test, and tried fresh fuel at the track, still pants :(
