Just a heads-up for run-what-you brung this weekend @ Santa Pod.

I'll be going, weather pending.


Bob

that would have been cool, but im going the weekend after anyway for the japshow.

doubt ill have the NOS set up in time for that though :( maybe just the purge!!

Hi mate.

Would have gone to japshow but am busy that weekend. And only being allowed 3 runs sucks.

The nitrous should be quite straightforward to install? T-fuel line. drill TB to install jets. Fit solenoids. TPS switch. Activation switch. Plumb in bottle and tubes.

Then something to retard ign?

Would be good to see how much of a difference it makes. 0.1secs per 10bhp shot of nitrous?

RWYB is a good warm-up for Japshow ;)

you make it sound so easy! i only sent the cheque off today so i wont even get the good until next week anyway. Ive got to make sure that i get the nos/fuel mix right though, so ill have to give it a whirl on a deserted road while keeping one eye on the Knocklink and the other firmly on the road!!! hopefully ill join you in the 12s soon :)

i think the ignition retard is the trickiest bit.....although i plan to drop in some colder plugs to assist....

it always sounds easy but in practice rarely is.

setting up sounds a little tricky.

Let us know how you get on.

:cool: Mine will likely have my username painted on the rear windows, so just introduce yourself.

Bob

good luck bob, i cant make it this weekend

Cheers Mikee.

Would have re-arranged it for following week but cant get out of wedding commitments as I'm the best man. Still feel like sneaking out in morning although highly unlikely.

Bob

bttt

Nice to meet you today Bob, did u crack the 11's in the end?

Dan.

be well impressed if he did :d

Pretty sure he did a 12.05 on his first run but i left at luch time so was not arround for the rest.

Dan.

bobs first run was 12.089!! well impressive... dont think bob managed to beat that all day unless he managed it really late on!!!

well impressive bob!!

Cheers guys. 1st run was 12.09@114.24mph. Was a good clean run. Couldnt beat it with the next couple of tries so just had some fun with some heads-up.

Had a look up and down the queue to see what I could race against and came up with this drag/hotrod thing:

Good seeing you again Tas and was nice to meet you Dan. :)


Bob

Well done Bob.

You have nicked my record for a Standard Internalled UK 2.0l

Steven

:D

Thanks Steven.

Wasnt aware that it was the record for a std UK internalled car, just that it may be for a TD05 or similar?

Bob

i just want to know the power of your car bob....just so i know how much weight i have to strip out to match you ;)

and when you say standard internalled......are you just referring to the pistons/cams etc? or are you talking injectors also?
