uk streetracers meet in leatherhead surrey
Discussion
Sorry not to make it,car being put back together still,just some more(do we ever stop!)engine mods in progress,readying engine for NOS,going for a new kit from the USA.(Propane/NOS) with a Race cam,they claim a 1/4 mile in the 9,s with a speed of around 145 mph!Please let me know when the next meeting is and will try to bring down the car even if i haven,t finished the mods(Hope to finish the summer with around 800bhp,but having trouble finding anyone to dyno the car even with 560! and ideas?).
i know dynos are hard to find in uk that can handle any kinda power i suppose they are only used to normal power not the kind of numbers you are talking about, i know the ccse custom car steet elim cars are dynoed but on an engine dyno as some of those are pushing out well over 1000bhp, 0 t0 170 mph in 8.4secs .but i thought about this and it seems a lot of hassle to remove it all with loom ect.we dynoed a car at place that do a lot of big power cars he said his dyno would take 1000bhp but i doubt you would hold that down on a 2wd dyno.
we had a good night ,the local boys in blue saw us parked up before we went to the pub,no lazers though.our name like i said is a little missleading to the powers that be but me and a lot of my friends drag race on tracks in proper msa approved events and we measure our cars peformance by a quarter of a mile time and speed because that is a true reflection of a cars accelaration not 170 on the m25.
Good stuff, it's good to see people taking their vehicles to the limits in a controlled environment and not on the public highways like the bolt-on-boys frequently do with their cruises
Sorry for getting the wrong end of the stick, may pop over to a meet sometime for a poke about if you do them around Surrey often
(ukstreetracers + meet in leatherhead = Pratts in maxxed cars & )
Keep it up though, IMO we need to get the message across to the masses that taking your car to a strip to race your mate is better than doing it on the roads, and at least you get figures to prove you beat your mate, how fast your reactions are and how good your car really is. Great website too, some of those cars are just brilliant
