Standard 13k mile bridgestones that came with the car, nothing too out of the ordinary really.

That was my mate in the m3 he used lunch control thats why he got a good start. I had 2 runs in my scoob the first aginst a clio i got 13.9 then i went against the yellow evo and got 13.8 i beat him 2 :D

Thunder 28 March 2004 09:18 PM

Good result, something to go for next time. cheers

Thunder 28 March 2004 09:28 PM

Music to my ears"EVO beaten" thats what i like good healthy competition and the EVO's sound like granny on a sunday drive, you don't even know they are there.
What happened to your mate in the M3?

scooby-zeus28 28 March 2004 09:32 PM

not sure wat time he got he had 1 run then he went home i think he dident want 2 lose 2 a scoob

Thunder 28 March 2004 09:39 PM

He didn't take it back to the dealership before they closed did he? i would be gutted having a motor like that with a good start and losing, i think it was only a few tenths though, always another day.

Neilo 28 March 2004 09:42 PM

i really wanted to have a crack at an EVO today......especially as i was seeing them running in the mid 14's quite a lot....oh well maybe next time.... :)

scooby-zeus28 28 March 2004 11:33 PM

wat time did the m3 get he told me he got 13.5

ademid 29 March 2004 08:42 AM

Well Chuffed
 
Well I was there sunday. For my first ever go at the 1/4. I set myself one goal! Don't stall it!!

I managed that. My first effort was 13.2!!!! :D:D I was up against an RS escort (apparently just rebuilt and running at 250bhp) But I don't think he had much fun cos he got a 17.6.

Then went up against a silver new age scoob bogged it a bit off the line but still managed a 13.5.

Last run was up against a skyline! Got away really well then boned the change into third!!!!!! Would have been a good time cos it was 13.3 with absolute muppetry!

Great day out though!

Ade :D

ademid 29 March 2004 03:12 PM

Well I was chuffed with it!

Ade

FrenchBoy 29 March 2004 03:15 PM

LOL @ Ade!!!!

Sorry mate, that was a very fine performance, what were you running?

ademid 29 March 2004 03:23 PM

Red MY96 with Radius R2's (I think there only two red classics there).

Was very pleased but was gutted as I thought I had a high 12 run in me..... Will just have to go again :D:D:D:D

Not sure what power it's running (last time it was on powerstation RR it was 296Bhp) but have changed the I/C to an STI V TMIC, injectors, coils, and new GEMS ECU, so feels a lot faster to drive.

Anti-lag is just sooooo much fun. :D:D

Ade :D

FrenchBoy 29 March 2004 04:04 PM

Sounds preety sweet, just glad you're not going to be at the RR next week to humble my poor WRX03ppp aswell!!

ademid 29 March 2004 04:09 PM

Lol I'm sure your wrx will be fine.

I've never really been bothered about humbleing anything/one I just like having a laugh with cars.

I gotta say I was quite suprised about peoples attitude at Santa Pod (admittedly I hadn't given it much thought) but I kind of expected everyone to be dead serious and competative, but was very pleased to discovered just about everyone was chilled, friendly and just there for laugh :D

Ade :D

Neilo 29 March 2004 04:12 PM

Ill second that, it was a nice atmosphere full of friendly peeps, even the mitsi boys we alright :)

scooby_si 29 March 2004 04:24 PM

some of the scooby owners took offense when i started flyering their cars thou ;) lol but hey wots a guy to do :D
Good day just a shame Robs misses couldn't manage a better time than him in the RA :D
Peccy did you get away with yer doughnutting antics just i dont think the security folks were too impressed so consider yerself lucky if you did! especially having seen them nearly lynch (& 12 month ban) sum1 else for even driving thru that area (bit further down) & well if i had kids in the area i wouldn't of been too chuffed neither......
Si (holier than thou mode off)

he wasnt too happy no, but the camera man filming me seemed to like it, people like that should have gone to a Sunday Afternoon Tea Party instead of a motoring event! what they expect, did he ban Terry Grant too lol. its not like i even broke the 5mph speed limit.

i thought it was the delagated donut area anyway, think that new M3 before me and the skyline stole the show though. the only person near us was the camera guy.

peccy 29 March 2004 05:01 PM

i managed a 13.4 in my 6 type R, stuggling with traction though, on attempt i came of the line sideways! lol

whats the best way to launch a R / RA ?

DanTheMan 29 March 2004 05:13 PM

Apparently its also doubles for a toaster, just how long are the flames...

5 Type R 29 March 2004 06:43 PM

The GT2 did approx 14.5 in the hands of the lovely lady and put in low 12s in the hands of the male owner.

My mates skyline returned dissappointing low 12s. Pretty good but when considering it has 620bhp we were all expecting more.
Defo has probs though as it just bogs down if the redline is hit in any gear..............good terminal though of 118mph

Bats-Wrx 29 March 2004 07:35 PM

Peccy you sure you ain't addicted to burning rubber first it was doing power slides round a corner posted up now your doing donuts @ santa pod in a no go area lol. I think somebody likes playing with there DCCD a bit to much :D.

ScoobyDoo69 29 March 2004 08:05 PM

ademid 30 March 2004 08:15 AM

Yes Scoobydoo that would have been me. What were you in? I chatted to a few other scooby owners.

Ade :D

ScoobyDoo69 30 March 2004 09:56 AM

hehe, that new age may have been me against you, my launch was awful lol. i'll try and get the videos up soon:D

ScoobyDoo69

ademid 30 March 2004 12:32 PM

Was it silver with what looked like an odd looking diffuser on the rear skirt? Or did I dream that :D

Ade :D

ScoobyDoo69 30 March 2004 01:05 PM

it had the rear under spoiler, if thats the one you mean. did you get the slips printed? i forgot:( if you did i was CH300 or something like that

ScoobyDoo69

ademid 30 March 2004 01:49 PM

I did get the slips. I'll have a look when I get home it was my second run so I'll have a look.

My mate has apparently put the video for that and my first run on his website. I have seen the first run... I think he stumbled or something the camera work is a bit of a laugh, but apparently sounds good (have viewed it at work have no speakers). I haven't seen it but the second one is supposed to be better filming.

His site is www.ewart.biz it's under downloads. (first run is about 5.5MB the second about 12MB)

Ade :D

ScoobyDoo69 30 March 2004 02:07 PM

hey, got the video, and that was me:D that was one of my bad runs too, o well maybe i'll get ya next time:D

ScoobyDoo69

ademid 30 March 2004 02:18 PM

I'm definately going to have another go at it!! So maybe I'll see you then. :D

I'm determined to sneak into the 12's. I'm thinking it's possible (13.3 with fluffed third, I swear that's going to haunt me until I get it right).

Hopefully will get my water spray working by the next time....

Ade :D
