Pass, I "saw" it on the timing sheet at the end of our lane. I spent most of the day queuing and hardly saw any runs at all, except the 3 I did in my car.

It was Rannoch, AKA Trout, who got 11.760, first time out with this set up, but we need to work out how to get traction.

He was getting wheel spin in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and the car was lurching side ways when he changed into 4th.

We need to try dropping the boost in the lower gears, and probably increase it from 1.6bar, to 1.8bar from 6k.

Best 60ft was 1.8sec's, but then he fluffed 2nd to 3rd. 1/8th @ 96.31, 7.74 sec's, 1/4 @ 125.34.

Fun 1st time out.

Mark.

I didn't see that scoob running, but my mates told me it was bloody quick. I had a really crap day in my GTO, as the clutch let go gradually over the day until midway through the 4th run when the nitrous proved too much.

That was my car sat on the road back to the pits from the end of the quarter. Got towed home afterwards by a mate in his 200sx, top bloke!
