chilli Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I'm amazed it lasts just once, that's some pounding, 1400bhp dumped through drag tires from a standstill, ouch! any normal box would explode into a million pieces I think, never to be seen again! I'll just add this because I believe some members do have a sense of humour I've got a manual and auto Supras murder me off the line heresy! burn the witch! -Ian maybe you should get driving lessons from Ryan?

Alex Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 The gearbox was brand new...and has not been changed since he first ran this year AFAIK. The clutch is either a Tilton 3 Disc Carbon Carbon or an RPS Carbon Carbon, think he's tried both....I'd wager it's the Tilton at the moment.

chilli Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 so it lasted more than one go, blimey! if/when it does go I guess it will go with a bang! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 jeez that is amazing, through a stock manual drivetrain FFS! I'd think this was bullsh1te if I'd have heard it down the pub and not on this forum lol So whoever says supe auto's are better than manuals for dragging, and then promptly highlights auto cars that don't use the stock auto drive train, ahem...

Keith C Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 maybe you should get driving lessons from Ryan? Heh - you want to try it against an auto NA - Faye's car is *much* sharper off the line than mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supRo Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 It's all about getting your foot control, gear changes and traction right! I (6 sp) raced about 10 supras beating all the autos and single autos off the mark at Bovingdon! One or two had RLTC too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
