Hey - the old beastie! Still looking good!

coco_scooby - Can you drop me an email re: your car/my old one? Bit confused about something

Cheers!

Kevin,

You may concede defeat when you see what power Hugh's car is putting down on the road! With a good launch it will be hard to beat I think!

Hamish

kevin sharp

hamish,

i didnt say would beat it
i know hugh bogged the launch and then mine developed a miss
so we both had a cr 4 p run LOL

what i was meaning was that hugh was winding me in at that
ridiculous rate because i was off throttle

like i say it will be interesting to see both cars run properly
together and im not afraid of my car being beat
(although that would be a first LOL)

Good day,top fun.

Thanks for not snubbing my humble motor.
Was v nice to give a few quick cars a bit of a fright

What power does Jim's Evo VI knock out? 2-1 to him this time!

That skyline was as awesome as everyone has said.
Last time I go up against one of those on the 1/4

Anyone see me forget to run in 4wd drive against Jims car when the woman was driving it? lmao

And thanks very much to Barry for the ride in the RS6. Lovely smooooooth power.

Moses - cheers for the encouragement!

KSY

That was fun yesterday!

Thanks to everyone who took me as a luggage down the strip!

The cossie was amazing, thanks Kevin!

Taken a few mpeg movies, including the second pass of the airplane. This one is uploaded at http://sergey-kataev.pisem.net/Mov00035.mpg

One of latest starts is here: http://sergey-kataev.pisem.net/Mov00034.mpg

Dougster, I've got your run in mpeg, and a picture on the start too. Is your email good enough for 3-7Mb (dont remember the size exactly). The picture is uploaded but it's too big for inserting into this thread, so just a plain URL: http://sergey-kataev.pisem.net/Dsc00032.jpg

Kevin, your run is on mpeg movie too. Can send by e-mail as well.

Pity the camera doesn't record exhaust sound and clutch smell!

Thanks to Sam and Jim for organizing, that was good fun!

Now I know I have to improve my take-off technique, cause I'm crap on the 1st gear - either give it too much - four wheel spin, no punch, or too little revs go low, get no power.

Surprized to see you all posting loads of messages overnight!
I've just come to work!

moses

your welcome russ , what did i say mate


yeah i would luv to see kevins and hughs car when their both not having probs it will be fun and i hope mine gets sorted and once i get my new engine parts maybe then i will have a chance against your guys it was fun watching u guys go haha awesome and huge barmy fun

moses

span did u go to get a bite to eat mate , i headed home following rice rocket and my car gave in just before the forth rd bridge , no power it stopped accelarating and then started after 30 secs it was a scary moment , im going to get it checked today from mark at the garage

Hamish69

Kevin,

Yes, I think it would be an interesting match! Your car was certainly very impressive. I would admit defeat in my humble R33! I think Hugh timed you doing about a 11.5 quarter, although obviously not very precisely. What have you had the car dyno'd at? Mine did 303bhp at the wheels yesterday, which I was happy with given how little it's had done to it. Had to limit my runs on the strip as my new clutch started slipping. I think the surface on the track was so grippy that wheelspin was unlikely (except for your 360 spins!) and there was therefore more stress on the clutch. Cheers,

Hamish

Spanpody.

Moses, we just headed home. We got a bit lost leaving the airfield and did a bit of unsheduled sightseeing around Glenrothes

Get a compression check on your engine, check the plugs and change the oil (it was stinking of petrol!). You also need to check the fuel pressure (get someone with a gas analyser or wide band lambda to have a look at it)

john banks

Should have been more brave and tried against the Cossie, but I felt my transmission and clutch were on borrowed time. Would have been interesting to see the difference (315 at the wheels on AP22 which I believe but the roller figures were much lower). Only went against one Skyline which was grey and a fair few Evos, shame couldn't try against the black Skyline.

kevin sharp

KSY, that would be great if you could mail that to me!

Hamish, the engine was originally dyno,d at 512bhp
its never been on a rr
it should still be pushing around the 500bhp plus the nos
will give mabe another 40-50 bhp, but i,ll change for bigger
jets before i race hugh LOL

i may get jim to spin it up on the rollers this week to see whatit
is putting out,
cheers
kev

ps how do you post smilies on this board

KSY

Dougster: not many runs filmed, only the one you've got, the best couple is uploaded (see the links?) and one more with the cossie, already sending it

moses

span thank God the engine was still ok but i need new spark plugs now and the fuel pressure was nearly 5 bar fecking cont didnt check it when he fitted the 350 litre fuel pump

T-uk

just a bit rich then moses,we all knew it was something simple that would be making it go like a lawn mower .

change the oil too,it will have a been diluted down with petrol.

moses

pmsl yeah mate and also misfiring so i ordered new plugs too

what car where u in mate was it the blue scoob


and the oils been changed mate it was thin as water fecking hell more fuel than oil

T-uk

yeah,I got a slow blue scoob(by sunday's standards).

drove john banks scoob a few times at the airfield to teach you evo hooligans that you need much more power to take us ,it's not just andyf you have to fear now.

coco_scooby

T-UK

so when we gonna c yer scooby going on full power???
u got the stuff so when is it all going on mate???

moses
