And on the 7th day........... God created turbochargers!

Love to see that get past an MOT over here!
Am I missing something or does it look like he's still running drums on the front?
Bravery...

Miniworld March 1999:
There is a chopped Austrailian Mini that runs 12.647 with a T25 Escort Cosworth Turbo. Suck through 1 7/8" Su carb and water injection. No intercooler. Just thought I'd add this as I just saw it :)

nice motor, but the 'Adult Toys' on the door had me n stitches!

Bloody fast time !! I have no doubts an A series is capable of making the power, but how the hell does the gearbox and shaft withstand those slicks and the launch ?

Not forgetting the clutch too ??

9.85 @ 145mph
202mph standing mile
speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

did we ever get a speed for this?

Be interesting to see how it compares to Carl Austins time over the 60ft, 1/8th and 1/4...

thers nobody would like to see a printed time slip more than me ,lol., i would guess the terminal is relatively poor with all the tyre drag, no pun intended,,
stevie ,there wrinkle walls ,so i'd say the shafts cope quite okay,

No one has commented on the intercooler set up, looks as if it is a chargcooler set up in the passenger footwell, probably just very cold water around the cooler for drag use....An idea i had years ago.

TBH it fiction without a timing slip!

Fuck!

Not too late, my shell aint painted yet........I can still make a bulkhead box for webber carb!

Its only a bit of metal. If it blows it blows!

Metro turbo weekend driver,Mini turbo in the making again!

we were informed by someone that knew him that it was actually a 13.6, and from that mis-print a legend was born

(i was talking about the red one from aus)

Its not a claim or a statement, its a question, see the question mark........

waiting for someone to tell you otherwise then Tom?

Pretty much, I personally don't know of any turbo mini that has proof of being faster, but as always I am prepared to be corrected.

.....wow
