Neil, That 2.35 second to 60' is a good indicator of how the Quaife helps out too. A lot of other cars couldn't get anywhere near that (including me!) :signLOL:

I'd like to know what Illyun got for his 60' time too as he also has a Quaife. Illyun also managed a 113.5mph terminal trap so is also making good power. :happy2: With his quaife and the power he has he should really be down in the low 13's.

Interesting that Neil ran a 13.8 against my 15.09 but we both have 102mph trap speed !

Great day nice to meet you lot  :happy2:

Think this was the best of my day, had better reaction times, trap speeds and 60ft just couldn't put them altogether on the same run.
Think I had about 10 runs but after the snow with less cars there its easy to keep going round, I went up against the white Revo TT 4 times  :embarrassed:
I'm Happy with the 13.83 but really have to practise the launch control, using a pole to hold the brake with my left hand and reving with my right hand, you've gotta grab the wheel pretty f***ing quick.  :jumping:





Everytime I looked at the queue you were in it Neil...  :grin: Did I see a video camera in your car? Any footage?

Couple of decent pics of mine and yours here..






Familiar photos?  :wink:

Apparantly that silver Scirocco that was there yesterday ran a 14.2 and it's STANADARD!!!  :surprised:
i ran against it aswell, he got ahead at the start by 0.18 of a second reaction, and i finished same distance behind him. i think it was a dsg aswell??,but yes i couldnt make up the ground i lost on him.
We  were pretty close other all sections of the quarter mile.

that was my best run by a few tenths from an earlier run with Greenhouse, but my slowest reaction time on the day by some 3 hundreths. :smiley:

Sounds like any forthcoming "hot" Scirocco is going to be a seriously quick car then, if the standard is anything to go by!

Having read all the above, I am really unsure what to think about some of the results.

To put it in perspective, a stage 2+ TFSi Cupra with a semi reasonable start managed 13.6 @ 109.8mph at Crail and that is a strip which everyone claims unusually high terminal speeds, yet at the pod, a stage 0.75 Cupra (Revo trial map) managed over 110mph terminal speed :confused:

Also, despite non perfect starting conditions loads of other cars that are running 30bhp less than the stage 2+ Cupra manage to match the 1/4 mile time despite having slower 60 foot times :confused:

My head hurts  :jumping:

Does anyone know the owner??, yes he got off to a flyer and couldnt make ground :smiley:
although i was only launching at 1800rpm all day, kept the rev's down to try and stop spinning.I think if id of launched at higher rpm, then my times may well have been better.
