This was a run without the nos, first warm up run of the day to put some heat in the transmission before 'going for it'
Lots of wheelspin off the line on the cold tyres.
Unfortunately I fried the clutch on the next "full bore" launch after I let the tyres down a bit to try and stop the wheelspin off the line.

A 12 hr roundtrip for one competitive run

Still, at 9.82 @ 144mph it's a new UK record for no Nitrous, beating the previous totb with-Nitrous record

Outstanding stuff Andy, well done

 

Nice Further back up for your earlier runs as well.

PowerFC and our electro-trickery still doing the business and now running the MSD glitch free?

 

Well done Andy Top stuff as usual
Get that man a cigar

 

wow

 

Top stuff Andy

Put the bloody NOS on next time

 

Yes John, Power FC and the map convertor box is working well. The MSD is now giving me the spark I always wanted where I always wanted it

That run in the video, when I came back to the pit road, bearing in mind the launch/shifts/cold trans, my estimate was 10.5 ish, similar to my elvington warm up run, I was shocked to find it was a 9.8 and well pleased with a 144 terminal. I wouldn't get those numbers so easily at Crail !!

The question is now, where do you stop ?

I thought once I broke into the 9's that would be it, objective achieved and end of story !
In reality it is just the start of the next chapter

Now that I have the misfire sorted properly, the car is a massive step faster again with the nos on

It would be rude not to see what it can do

Andy - are you going to the Jap fest finale on October 9th ?

Rob

 

I think I can answer that: Have a look at www.japshow.com for the entry list!

Two 9-second scoobies, and at least one awsome 10-second scooby... I can't wait.

(also, Jap fest is at Castle Combe!)
