Keith

i dont have no boost controller or i would whack it up to 3 bar and get the real rod bell to map the fook out of it.i dont have a team of sponsors and fans like you do.yours is a good time over here but nothing when you get used to seeing 8 second full weight supras in america.a 9 second pass dont look that impressive for a stripped out sub 1000kg car.you should take a leaf out of rocket rons book.turn up do what u have to do and go home.job sorted lol

not everybody going to kiss your ass like lots do on gtr board.so dont be too shocked if we dont buy a mug or t shirt.

 

cheque book charlie ;):innocent::)

LMAO funny post. If you want sub 9 times just check out the Texas meet of a few weeks ago. A lot of the MKIV guys were running sub 9's.

 

When you have loads of money it some how does not sound quite so impressive as some one running a car they built them selves with zero financial backing. Bit like buying a highly modded car and taking the credit for what it can do.

 

We will have 8 second MKIV's but it takes time without the cash to and R&D. Any car that can do 8's is impressive, but my respect goes to those who have done it them selves.

If I wanted a 2wd drag car I would have bought one in from the US

and it would not have been a supra,I don't think you guys can appreciate

how hard it is to get a 4wd car to run a quick time over the 1/4 mile.

if I was to tub the rear end of my car and run it as a 2wd you would see very

fast times,I don't care how fast a 2wd car can run I am only interested in how

fast I can run my car against all the other skyline GTRs and nothing else.

 

Instead of having a pop at me go and put your heads together and sort out a

UK supra that will run a Sub 9 talk is cheap.

 

I don't know how you think I have loads of money I am a employed plumber that

works a 37 hr week every penny I have goes into my car to go racing,I also wish that

I had the same budget that the people I race against have to spend on there cars.

if it was not for the help from my sponsors I would not be racing this year.

Hi RICHIE S

had a good laugh at the members that fell for it.

 

This is the only forum out of 6 that has not taken it as a bit of fun:(

keith good on you for been at top of your field.its your arrogant attitude that stinks.thinking you this high and mighty drag queen.you not shy in shouting from the rooftops about your achivements.and can play a good tune on your "Keith Chegwin Cowie" trumpet. i think people think more of somone like rocket ron as he does not feel the need to shout about his achivements. you seem to pull other people down.you only intrested in how your car goes against other gtr`s so why you have to go to other sites to let them know how good you are.

i have more respect for someone who builds there own car and does it off there own back.they may not be fastest in world but they get a lot more respect than buying a fast drag car and changing a few oil lines saying they built the car ;)

 

all the best for the future

 

ps anyone want to chip into MONKEYballs racing supra to get into the 7`s

Not been on here in ages, but this threads a bit harsh...

 

MONKEYmark your a prick....simple. Your comments are well out of order.

 

Good to see that "some" of the old faces and majority on here still have a laugh and a joke and sense of humour though. :cool:

 

CJ - Not spoken to you in ages, but those flyers went down a treat cheers :)

 

MONKEYmark - I think you will find, if you looked closely, that Keith doesnt brag at all. You compare him to Ron Kiddell......problem is Ron Kiddell has done buger all in the drag scene......so wheres that going to get anyone ? pmsl. Show me ONE thread, where Keith did his 9.3 1/4 and then came on ANY forum BRAGGING about it.......go on...............

 

If you actually had a CLUE what you were talking about, you would also know that Ron Kiddell is a nice guy, and owns his own company....which tunes Skylines.....Keith is a plumber.....yet Ron Kiddell is still playing catch up in terms of UK GTR Drag Racing.....what does that say ?

 

This place used to be the only forum i knew of that wasnt bitchy, and still seems to be that way, but theres always one to55er that has to be a complete twat and just go hell for leather....jealousy is a terrible thing though.

 

And before you come on here farting at me, (yeah farting i said, cos words come out a mouth....farts come out an ar5e....get my point?) you might want to show me a UK 33 or 34 that has been built in, and ran / done well in the UK other than the Sumo Power (REALLY sponsored like crazy) car.

 

If you think that the RK Skyline, or Norris Evo are going to come close to this R32 this year, then you must be really "living the dream" mate....but can i have some of what your injecting please ? :rolleyes:

 

Personally.....i question why you are so keen to back up the RK Skyline, and shoot down Keiths one though.......hmmm.

 

At least a certain R32 can get sub 10 second quarters though.....and thats WITHOUT nitrous !

 

PS....Did you know that the RK Skyline has an engine supplied by RB Motorsport, and a gearbox out of Keiths car ?

Keith doesnt Brag at all....but by hell if it was me i would be !! When you lead the field of drag racing and arent playing catch up it kinda gives you bragging rights.

Time to start reading up mate. :cool:

I'm not going into all the crap but ive spoken to keith a few times and have used RB's and as the last comment said Keith is a nice guy who works as a plumber and yeh he sells t-shirts ( me and my kid have one ) but its to provide fuel etc to run!! i say fair play to him

 

Also i see that rocket ronnies name crop up, not that i'm ronnie bashing but he has the full backing of abbey motorsports and i dont know what ronnie does for a living but i believe money is no object with him and i think he also has a porker GT3 as a track car!! :D

 

Anyone who can do a sub 10sec 1/4 mile has to be an amazing driver IMHO so fair play to him and anyone else

Can I just say that, if I worked all day as a plumber and managed to get my not exactly glamourous looking Skyline down a 1/4 mile in double quick time, you know I'd be on here bragging and shit.

 

What have we (as a society) come to when someone who does something well isn't allowed to say that they're pretty good at it?

Fair comment, but I wish I only worked 37 hours a week:search:

 

 

Instead of having a pop at me go and put your heads together and sort out a UK supra that will run a Sub 9 talk is cheap.

 

 

 

UK supra's are a bit heavy for that:eyebrows::eyebrows:

 

Not taking a pop at you Keith, hats off to you for getting sponsorship. But I prefer my 4X4's off road.

 

Nice motors those Datsun's they go even better when you stick them in a lighter shell.

 

Seriously, best of luck getting through the 9.00 barrier.

Usually I remain neutral and impartial, but...

 

Ron Kiddell, 3 times British Drag Racing Association Champion may beg to differ with a few of your 'facts'.

 

You are insinuating that just because Ron makes a living from building and tuning R32's he should be faster than a 'plumber' - this is ridiculous and quite frankly laughable.

 

I'm also confused as to why you think the RK Tuning Skyline is a drag car? You have obviously never witnessed Ron Kiddell drive his R32 around a circuit. I can assure you it goes around corners very quickly too. Yes he drives it to every event, yes he can do a 9.46sec standing 1/4mile, but it's certainly not a one trick pony...

 

http://www.rktuning.com/video/time_attack.wmv

 

I'm sure Ron would love to beat Keith in a head to head (as it's a worthy scalp to take), but at the same time, he can also give a lot of people a good kicking around a handling circuit - that’s the big difference between the two R32's.

 

So for a Sprint Car, the 9.4sec of RK Tuning's R32 is not exactly 'playing catch up' to a 9.3sec drag car is it? Ok, he may not get into the 8's in the immediate future, but I think that's pretty respectable.

 

It's nice to see people pushing the scene forward.

 

And before you come on here farting at me, (yeah farting i said, cos words come out a mouth....farts come out an ar5e....get my point?) you might want to show me a UK 33 or 34 that has been built in, and ran / done well in the UK other than the Sumo Power (REALLY sponsored like crazy) car.

 

Erm... Rocket Ronnie's R33, that was quite nippy and a former TOTB Champ. Another car that was quick in a straight line, but was built as an all-round sprint car.

 

Sorry for the rant, no offence meant.

 

I'd rather be sat in a Supra anyway.:innocent:

 

I'll get my coat.
