GazB Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 (edited) I'm so HAPPY I've run 4 sub 12 second runs today 3 being 11.6 My new pb is 11.613 with a 60ft time of 1.721 The best 60ft i've managed today is 1.680 If i can manage to get it all right tomorrow there may be a low 11 second run The air is cool, track temp is still good so it's all good at Shakey :D:D:D Edited September 5, 2009 by GazB (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have the white number on my rear window Interested to see what i make at 1.3 bar not a crappy 0.8 Get yourself over here tomorrow, track doesn't open until 11 o'clock so your don't have to rush, i do think it's going to be quite busy tomorrow though as there are a few competions running and a few clubs attending. But you could see what 1.3 feels like, but be warned 'it's additictive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazB Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 Excellent news mate, great 60ft times now get that sig updated, good luck tomorrow. The Mickeys T's are working great, warming them well After speaking with Ian at Websters i've put pressure upto 14psi as advised and they are working better. I'm not updating sig until after tomorrow, it may be unlucky or perhaps i don't want to do it twice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazB Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Well i managed to improve my time today Can't get any closer to a '5' i ran a 11.600 What a great weekend, no rain lots of runs yesterday and enough today. Didn't break anything and set new PB's in my ET and 60ft times of 1.647 although my MT street radials are now slicks thats £350 worth of tyres in 2 weekend events. Perhaps less on the burn outs is what the wife suggests Just got back unloaded motorhome and parked the car on my driveway, put all tools, wheels etc awaay. Now i've got to set myself a new target as my last one was to runs an 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazB Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Well done mate, you got the 60ft sorted now get some more boost in that car and chase the 10's:cool: Hitting a good 60ft gave me a right buzz, you know what i mean My last run of the day was against a Roger Clarke prepped P1 We both did 1.7 @ 60ft I did 11.643 he did 11.782 ET speeds were 122 &123 both looking at each other as we crossed the line the slip said he won by 0.004 his reaction time was 0.561 mine was 0.704 The best and closest race i've had in all my runs I was talking to him after and he's running 500+ at the wheels and every bit of kit that available to the normal person. What a great looking car it was The boost was turned up a bit today to help it run the full quarter in 4th gear without popping Diff change soon will hopefuly help gearing. I'm thinking of starting a new build engine for 'just in case' I've got some fuel mix to try also with will help elimiate det Don't know if i'm going to run at Japshow final, i may wait until 17/18 Oct for final round at Shakey, i'm getting a bit nerviuos about something breaking again at the end of the year. I just been through that, as last year ended with broken clutch then verything else that happened to the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
