I read this ass first. I asked how you did on the plaggy window thread..
Exellent going mate. How many runs did you get in ? It will take a while to get used to it and see how the best way to launch is. It is just trial and error.
I went today and got 2 personal bests, My first was with no gas and ran a 11.7 then my other was with gas and ran a 10.7, So quite happy there aswell. The weather was spot on too. How did your day go at rockingham ??

Managed to get 5 runs in and they went from 12.7 @113 to 12.23 @117.

It seems to be best lauching about 3k rpm and short shifting to second, but with the lack of and LSD when it comes on boost in second it gets abit snakey. So desperatley try to find a LSD before the end of the month.

So hopfully by next bank holiday monday I will have my poly carb windows in and might try some toyo r888s to see if they give me any more grip.

Well done for your pb,s mate. thumbup

How did Darren get on ?

Adam can you ask Darren what sort of price he would charge for fitting a diff mate when you see him.
Cheers

Ill have a word with him for you. He ran a npb without gas 11.8. Im .1sec quicker lol. He was in the left lane and broke traction and went sidewards and missed the barrier by about a couple of foot. Lucky he missed it. He put it on the trailor after that. no more spare pants i think.

Ahh yes i saw you.. Were you just passing me as i was turning off for the sliproad ?? About 12 noon ish.
I slowed down with my window open hoping you were going to fly past so i could listen to the fantastic sound of your engine.. I just love the sound they produce..

Yeah I saw some photos of that, he didnt damaged his new paint work did he ?

If you could ask Darren that would be great. I have bitten the bullet and ordered a diff from USA that should be hear before I get back from work (22nd ) It will be a mad rush trying to get the windows and diff in before the 27th .
