Nothing spectacular, but good fun and not a bad first effort.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

the 60 foots arnt bad, 2.5 is good for a mini, 2.3 would be very good.

got your 1/8th and 330's, i suspect the issue is 2nd gear traction.

Ironically i think you might go faster with less boost.

14.4 @ 97mph on the upside down skip. new personal best for me

^ 98mph don't sell yourself short.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Run 2 would have been a guudun if I'd not missed 2nd gear!

i had 2 runs on my own and 2 with simon in the car we had quite a good race with a bini.

my two solo's were.

60ft ----2.5065----------2.4079
330ft----6.243----------6.1003
1/8th----9.1648---------9.068
1/8th mph-85.06-------83.65
1000et-----na-----------11.6285
1000mph---na----------94.67
1/4-----13.8047--------13.8159
mph-----105.19--------102.57

best possible from the two runs was a 13.66s.

first run used 19 psi and big misfire ,secong run used between 13 and 14.5 psi and still misfired but a bit less ..


mixture was way rich at 11.4:1.

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

13.2 on yoko, 13.0 on slicks. Pretty crap really no traction with either tyres and too much headwind

I seriously doubt it!

My best was a 15.07 @ 86mph

Pretty happy with the 2.17 60 foot though, not bad for an open diff.

I my exhaust is killing the top end though, so need to do something about that.

blimey moley , that a terrific 60 ft ,what diff tyres weight etc ???

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

Tyres A048R 165/55/12 reasonably low on air, 3.44:1 final drive, standard a+ gearbox

weight, probably about 590kg without driver

I reckon its down to the torquey n/a 1380 so no massive bang of power, and the short 1st gear, though could only floor it in 2nd anyway.

most 60 foots were 2.2-2.3 just hooked that one up really well.

Are you sure that last one is yours??

In the 13's at last!.. Just

14.07 sec 97mph 2.3 60ft.
Happy apart from some really bad geometry set up. Still all over the track crossing the line.
It wasnt torque steer

I seriously doubt it!

your right i was in the other lane, reading the wrong part!

To be honest it was good having the odd Supra, Mitzy in the mix to get a perspective. Most were in the late 14's. So any mini below 16's was a pretty good showing in my book. :)

Although it was a mini only day on the Sunday, towards the end, they were allowing other cars on track. I shocked my friend who thought his E36 M3 was up to beating my mini.

i did the black twinturbo supra

apparently a 14.5 but idont have that slip

that was against the lad in the 212bhp bini, once i knew i had im i lifted for the last second or so, wish i hadnt i would have been on for a 100mph pass
thats also the run i lost 4th cyl inlet

i havnt really launched it hard either and not giving it all untill 3rd/4th because of the lack of grip one it hooked in 3rd though the acceleration is insane, cant imagine what it must be like for you 200+ bhp lads
