Homer Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Good time mate, starting to set a bar for the NA-T's How did you find the grip today - particulary in 1st? I had a nightmare yesterday getting the power down, as soon as 2nd turbo came online it spun up and had terrible wheel hop. I got a 2.2 6-ft, 13.6 @ 108mph but was only 0.8bar due to the heat!

Scooter Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 for the record and to add some perspective to GazzaGSi''s time........this is as quick as my old completely stock UK TT (in fact slightly better) not sure of his exact NA-T spec but IMO for anyone considering going this way i'd find out, cause whatever it is, thats as far as you need to go to get a very swift car, well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzaGSi Posted August 6, 2006 Author Share Posted August 6, 2006 1st was wasnt bad, better than at the japshow there afew weeks back, I pulled off at around 3k rpm and gradually let the clutch up, abit of slippage and wheel spin but nothing too major. I guess for TT's though its even harder to get grip as you have more power than me in the low revs as my boost doesnt start coming on till around 3.2k rpm. Had no troubles in 2nd gear, just a little screech and that was it. Hopefully with the anti lag unit the time may come down abit more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 That is great Gaz And the time was good too No seriously that's brilliant Gaz, and with more runs you'll really get it all working perfect and be cutting that time right down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tattooman Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I ran a 13.87 yesterday and wasn't very happy with my times at all considering my car is BPU, Hybrid Turbos and running at 1.4 Bar, not very impressed at all even though my runs felt really fast in the car ???

terribleturner Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Tattoman, did you do a good burn out?? I find with pod you really need warm tyres to get any type of grip going. Also was it your first run or is that the best ever you've done in the sup?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't feel bad mate, everyone (well the owners of turbo'd cars) were complaining it was too hot to run decent times. How was your boost pressure on the day? Mine dropped to 0.8 bar! Ran much better at 3am the following morning, 1.1 bar is soo much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
