It was good to see some of you up at Santa Pod last Sunday. Sorry didn't get round to meeting everyone though...was stuck in queues from start to finish.
Was my first time there and I had a brilliant time.
Was v v slippery though...couldn't stop my wheels from spinning...felt like my rear wheels were trying to overtake the fronts...struggled to keep it in a straight line.
Anyway I mangaged 13.43secs.
My runs:
''''''''''''''Run 1''''Run 2''''Run 3''''Run 4''''Run 5
Reaction:'''''1.078''''0.733''''0.997''''0.757'''' 0.744
60ft:'''''''''2.208''''2.057''''1.957''''2.233'''' 2.139
330ft:''''''''5.890''''5.736''''5.577''''5.935'''' 5.835
1/8mile:''''''8.931''''8.765''''8.586''''8.958''''8. 871
1/8mile mph:''81.30''''81.61''''82.06''''81.76''''81.38
1/4Mile:''''''13.818'''13.629'''13.433'''13.800'''13 .737
1/4mile mph:''100.24'''100.78'''99.73''''101.18'''100.37
The car:
MY99 UK
Mongoose Full-decat (turbo-back)
HKS SSQV
Silicon Hoses (turbo/intercooler)
TEK 3 (running 17.4/17.5psi)
What do you guys reckon on the times?
What did other scoobs get on the day?

Yeah you get all the details of your runs now.
I have no idea of bhp but the car is a UK (215bhp) and hasn't had much money spent on mods.
I was speaking to a GTiR owner who reckoned AWD cars can achieve 1.75 at best for 60ft which I can believe as my starts were crap as me car was pulling sideways and I was having to back off throttle at times to regain traction.
Hope for better next time.
