Really shows how much quicker a Turbo is... Your 1/8 trap speeds are about the same as my 1/4 trap speeds! :clapping:

1.20bar (well, showed up at 1.19 on the readout)... it spiked at 1.32bar on the way to the circuit and fuel cut kicked in, so I had to have a little play with the settings on the way there...

I recon we should hit Shakespeare County for the next RWYB meet. Should be a lot quieter!

Great write up Chris! I know exactly what you mean about not expecting the stage! :shocked:

Yeh not too bad.
Just a shame I didn't get the times from one of those runs. I'm certain it was similar to my last run, could have even been better, but I'll never know.

Jim with the conditions of the day I don't think anyone could make massive improvements.
Don't suppose you caught my last run CV failure did you?

Managed to take 0.5s off my time at Japshow, but annoyingly that didn't quite get it into the 15's - 16.19 @ 86MPH. A more aggressive launch will see it into the 15's easily, I'm just concerned about doing that to what could well be an original clutch!
Don't worry about it fella my first 2 had 26 runs on 1 day by myself and a good friend all full boar trying for good times with burnouts the NA's can take some abuse lol :th:

Shakespeare County raceway is literally 5 minutes from my house... if there's enough interest then I'll get in contact with them about setting one up
