I am thinking of going up to Santa pod on 17th Jan to their rwyb event. Been looking through terms and rules and they say a helmet is required for cars that exceed 110mph terminal speed. I don't know if my car will exceed this? Also has anyone any tips or info for me regarding this? Tyre pressure etc.
I have listed my car stats below:

Engine
UK classic my00
Andy Forrest TD05 20G
Nismo 550cc injectors
full decat inc downpipe
large RCM air filter
Hybrid FMIC
Harvey ported headers and uppipe
SimTek ecu with launch control and anti lag, mapped by Bob Rawle and rest of above work carried out by Harvey Smith.

Chassis
Whiteline arb and droplinks front and back
BC sports coilovers
Ksport 8pot front brake conversion.
2 Pot rears.
17" Ultralite A-tec wheels with Toyo T1-R tyres.

Transmission and clutch
UK 6 speed conversion
Exedy Organic clutch from David at API.

Thanks, Matt.

Just take a helmet with you as your speed should be about the 110mph Mark

As for tyre pressures, i always swap and change with every run

Take it they need to be a bit lower than road pressures though. Thinking my clutch is going to not be very happy though. Better get saving for a new one

Go as early as you can to do as many runs as possible rather than queing up for an hour and getting hot engine bay. Apparently it's harder to get good times this time of the year I might be going on that day

Different temps and different pressures mate, i did a good time this summer on my road pressures and the more i lowered it the slower i was going

Try with launch control and with out... im faster with out

Doesn't the denser air help at all?

Denser air does help but traction is the problem specially for big power cars

Your turbo is HUUUUUUGE so that may bog you down, things you need to watch are high temps when sitting there, normally the first thing that makes you go bang, lots of strain on the drive train and dont side step the clutch, bad for the box and the diffs

Put foot on clutch, push to floor, slide foot to left of clutch pedal, pedal comes up at silly rate, or just do it the sensible way which is just as quick (if not quicker) and less damaging
