Homer Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 The speed you cross the line at. Rule of thumb from my limited observations last year was NAs crossed the line at 90mph ish, TTs at 100~110mph ish, and Singles at 120~130mph ish assuming they could put the power down. A full BPU supra (auto or manual) running above 1 bar, and a driver who can make it launch will cross the line are more than 110mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 A full BPU supra (auto or manual) running above 1 bar, and a driver who can make it launch will cross the line are more than 110mph. and there is the big question...how do you do a perfect launch in an AUTO TT bpu?

Pixelfill Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 A full BPU supra (auto or manual) running above 1 bar, and a driver who can make it launch will cross the line are more than 110mph. That's me not launching correctly then could never get the RLTC launch working on my auto, I hope that's because you can't. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaymdee Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 A full BPU supra (auto or manual) running above 1 bar, and a driver who can make it launch will cross the line are more than 110mph. Agree with Homer, as per my earlier post on this, as a few of us were breaking 110 last year. If you are TT and have a helmet, take it.

T2 MSW Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 So, our race is on then mate?! I'm sure we could have a little play once we have both got some practice runs in.

Stephendjb Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 There will be two us signing up for drag racing when we get back from Holiday at the end of July money is too tight to do it at the moment sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 so if the event was sold out i wouldnt be able to even one run in tracies car ??? sadly not. You have to do the full sign on process for THEIR insurance purposes before you can run, they will give you a wrist band saying you have signed on. Each sign on takes a space. We can always see how things are on the day as the whole event is pretty relaxed and not meant to get people down in any shape or form.
