Good to meet more of you guys today, Robin, Murray, Gavin plus all the regulars
Thanks to Barry for a few runs in the EVO I'm sure with a bit practice or a joint effort (My launches & Barry's gearshifts) we could have thrashed Bank's flying Scooby
Andy

Great day weather was ace and had a lot of fun.
Thanks to John Banks for a run in his Scoob..... well fast .... for a scoob ;-)
Kevins Cossie went well
Hugh's black skyline was awesome!
Bad luck moses hope u get everything fixed real soon
Sam it's a shame about your gearbox going as I was kind of hoping for a passenger run in your car.
Adam you did see me at McD's I was the guy that was behind u approaching the bridge in the blue Audi RS6.
Yup this truly made me **** bricks and build a preverbial house. Had visions of the car launching through the wall and collecting a couple of caravans on the way out!

good turnout at star. even an RS6... WOW!! Never seen a car drive it's way forward and out of the rollers before yes! i said drive, not bounce! It was close as the car was almost on the top of the roller ready to go off the front but was rescued from the brink of madness.

Myself, Hugh, Charlie and Keith arrived a bit late and missed a lot of the RR runs. Is there anywhere where the results from the day are going to be posted? Had a run at the airstrip in Hugh's Skyline - my word that car is rapid! He was doing 130 at the quarter mile markers!!! What sort of 1/4 mile time would that equate to? Cheers for a good day,
Hamish

Might have been doin 130 by the end, but how were the starts?
Don't ask me how they equate, but AndyF may have better info on 1/4 times and how to go about them.
Don't deny the Skyline was rapid, would loved to have sat on his laptop for a run!
Again, great day and defo up for another. Much better than that S***hole Crail.

Robin, noooooooooooo that well sux has it been like that since you got it? hope the diags come back with some better news.
Kosy, it kept failing the runs due to going into kickdown (yes it's a auto gearbox) they managed to get one run but that was trying to keep it off the kickdoqwn and not very reliable or near where it should be.. that was still 330 bhp tho, the 4th run was where it tried to make a audi dent in the extraction unit.
Doug, that lad that was with me, he's my boss from work, i was due to start work at 12 today... he was kind enough to let me start at 2.30
Kevin, some fantastic launches i saw you doing there... shame the NOS ran out, that would have been cool!
SO did JBanks's scoob put hold everyone at bay then? was he beaten? i had to leave so missed a chunk of the airfield runs.
I do have some pics of cars looking pretty at the airfield and will post tomorrow.
All in all a good day was had by me!

130mph in the 1/4 ! wow ! That's 12 mph more than Keith's 580 bhp R33. By my calcs, on an R34 that would need around another 220 bhp !
The only run I seen the skyline do was against Kevins Escort Cossie and the cossie left it standing. From memory the cossie runs low 12's in the 1/4 (correct me if I'm wrong Kevin)

Well after forgetting to wake up & missing my ride up to star from Spanpody, I decided to head up in the ford, 5 minutes later, I had to go back home to get the camera which i'd forgot
I did manage to see 1 & a half cars on the rollers; and hear about the rs6
I hitched a ride with Moses to head over to the airfield. between getting lost & witnessing the stupid amounts of power from the Skyline in front, we made it . The weather was top notch, I got a few rides down the runway (thanks to Moses (evo4/6 TME hybrid )& Negri (evo5)). I got some pretty good photos including the 2nd time the plane swooped down onto the cars starting a run! That was a comedy moment!
I should have the photo's up soon, I need to get them developed first
Oh, Thanks to Lubo & Mike for making a dream come true

Hugh only managed a couple of decent runs as he was having trouble with the clutch at launch. However, when he got it right it was seriously quick. My neck still hurts from the snap it got when he hit second gear!!

thanks for the comments about my escort lads,
andy, yes it usually does low 12s
but i had been hoping for high 11s, the car has recently
been set up at turbosystems (tony is the daddy with 500bhp cossies)
but the startline at crail was too wet and greasy in the morning
so the best time was 12.7 @ 118 or 119mph i think
barry, pity about my clutch cable and your boost hose probs
it would be interesting to see how our cars compare
next time then!
cheers

Thanks to Sam for organising the event and also the guys at Star for their sterling work
I was happy with my figures on the day, wasn't looking for anymore power just a health check. Barry's Audi was a bit of a scream, he shot away from us at the Forth road bridge tolls so fast I thought I had left my hand brake on It was a bit mental on the rollers as well.
Had a couple of runs on the airfield, good laugh
Moses, Sam, hope you get your motors fixed soon.
Got a bit lost on the way home , didn't have a fekin clue where we were, but eventually made it out
Span (Yellow EVO 5)
