Andy F just did this at Crail

50 shot of nitrous, otherwise spec as at TOTB III.

 

Nice one

 

Cheating gas though

(IMO before the flaming starts)

 

what? he has a flamer kit too???

 

Didnt you know, its the most effective mod for quarter mile use

 

With times like that,no wonder its called laughing gas,who said a visit to the dentists can't be fun,
Nice one Andy f,keeping the flag flying for the scoobys

 

Nice one Andy.

 

Well done andy.

 

He must be on a high after this!! I know i would!!

0-135 in 10.52 seconds?? bonkers, absolute bonkers!! Well done.

How you manage to achieve so much in such a short space of time beggars belief!

How's your neck?

 

Still brass Alan

 

Cheating gas only in as much as forced induction is cheating

 

Brilliant result Andy

Here's to the nines!!

 

Severe lack of traction at Crail compared to York but it doesn't half come alive at mid track with the nos Best terminal was 136.4mph.

I kept getting beat off the line by the 650bhp MR2 on drag slicks, he continually had 2 car lengths on me at 1/2 way but I'd pull ahead by 3-4 lengths by the line

Andy

 

Pmsl.

What box did you run for this event Andy? Same as Elvington?

 

Yes, same box Alan but I'm running out of 4th now, bouncing off the 8k rev limiter at 135mph a few car lengths from the end. I only selected gearing for 135mph in 4th as that was my original target.
Time for a diff swap me thinks, I still have that rumbling front one that complained after the missed shift into 1st at 75mph at Elvington, I think it may have actually cracked the gearbox casing today After a 'bang' on run 13 the oil is now pi55ing out the side of the box beside the driveshaft.
Thanks to JB for the 2 ltrs oil top up on my way home and thanks to him for cleaning it all up off his road when it just leaked straight out the side again !!

 

Congratulations Andy top time for a top car

 

thats two records in one day

we broke the fastest mr2(as far as i know) at 10.93
and you done the 10.52.

did you get home ok. is the damage bad but it was worth it wasnt it

i think we should look into laughing gas. now that would be fun

K

 

K - Good to meet you today What bhp was your MR2 dyno'd at ? It fair shifts !!!

 

Andy nice to mee ya aswell heard loads about you but never actually see ya

last time was straight off the boat on optimax and it done 655 cant remember, but will find out on the 18th again and will also see what it does on racing fuel

K

 

a scooby did 10.9 at elvington today ,sure he had the quickest car there today on the 1/4

 

Brilliant Andy , Next time you do it use two camcorders one inside car and someone filming from the side of track, I'm sure ALL on here would LOVE to see the footages.

 

Agreed

 

^^^wot Brun said^^^

 

Incredible result for a truly incredible built car - looks so unassuming too!!

Amazing.

Brian

 

After a 'bang' on run 13 13??

That's what i call giving the car some stick!! Ruddy nora!

I'm surprised you never had any shaft problems since this is what seems to happen at some of the other events. Wonder if it's down to surface you're running on?

How was traction off the line?

 

Why is NOS cheating?!

Its not as if it is a Sport with 200bhp shot

Excellent result Andy

 

It's built for thrashing Alan All 13 runs were in the 10 second bracket and over 130 mph
Traction seemed to improve as the day progressed, I could still however do a 4 wheel burnout on approach to the line without too much trouble, that's not something you would do at Elvington for example.

 

Well done andy!

and i see why you havent bothered with "crx" in yer garage!

I did it yesterday andy, as Paul suggested it may help scrub the crap off the road legal slicks

6000rpm launch and it spun all 4, even at 19psi.

Doing that seemed to work, as thats when i got the 12.2.

Steven

 

You are braver than I !! Are you on the Dunlops now Steven ?
