Over thirty 12s runs, with a best of 12.64 @ 115mph.

I also have a Stack ST500SR and it is 100% accurate, as proven at Alconbury - speedo reading 172mph, timing lights reading 172mph...(have also done 50-70 in 1.52s so far - am still playing with it as it is fun to see what times you can do what speed increments), but it then melted a piston on the second run....

Back soon with more power though (do I sound like Craig H or what? ).
LOL

Ah but Craig, Mike R drives a 'mans' car .

Could YOU keep a 400+bhp RWD car pointing the right way when driving hard ? I know I have trouble controlling 200+bhp through the rear wheels!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again (and again, and again....!).....

A certain 15 year old Sierra Cosworth that could have been yours for 8.3k did the 1/4 mile in 11.78 seconds @ 350bhp. When you (or whoever) have bettered that, let us know (I'm sure you will), until then, bow to the RS lol!

Oh, while we're at it, when are you lot gonna better MADs Escort Cossie (0-60mph in 3.73 seconds?). Whats the best top speed posted by a Scooby ?

PS. OK I know I've dragged this thread down to 'muppet' status but in my defence I was coaxed by a Scooby driver. I always knew I was a muppet anyway lol!

I have run a 13.08 at 109mph and hit fuel cut twice. Thats in a Supra twin turbo with the sum total of 1 mod, which is a straight through exhaust system.

Still having problems with grip though, I got the fuel cut raised a small amount and managed a 110mph trap speed but only at 13.4.

So who says the Supras are slow..

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:<HR>Over thirty runs under 12s and with a best of 12.64 <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
