Chingy Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 "Thunder Road is an event for Sensibly Tuned & Standard Road Cars NOT Drag Racing Cars. Nitrous, Parachutes, Sticky Tyres, Screamer Pipes etc are not what this event is about If you are not sure if your car is suitable then please drop us an email" Can you not run a car with screamer pipe? Thats me out then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you email them mate, as I see you've booked yours in to have the screamer plumbed in? I'm sure you'll be fine, they can't be that anal, can they ? Don't know mate, mine is bloody loud though, been looking forward to this for ages as well.... even managed to persuade my other half to have my passenger ticket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Be interesting to see how a bpu Supra would do. Looks like we will find out Worth bringing a set of uk spec rears along do you think? Dont think the rubber on them is much good tho. Nothing fancy. But i doubt ill be struggleing for traction on my 18's i don't on a normal road. Dont think ill be shredding the tyres much . Total newbie at 1mile events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still I assume the Supra's will whip the snot out of the Porsche's etc will they not or are all entries modified ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 will have to remember not to run with a full tank of fuel like i did at the pod. its like dragging an extra person behind me. oh i need some new pads aswell... oh and a new front lip to fit.. or is that going to slow me down... hum....

JamieP Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 (edited) My new turbo has been delayed so ive canceled it, not expecting to do very well at thunder road now, i have a sick turbo on the car so im gonna run less boost, on a plus side ive ordered a billet 74mm turbo, should see some big numbers from my car very soon.
