youre best up the 1/4 is 11.7 isnt it? @ 128? (sorry that sounds really stalkerish but i just watched a couple of vids on youtube!)

so based on that, you should be doing it in the 10 sec range id say :)

Ha ha ha thats fine, thats what they're for!

Yes my very best is 11.7 @ 128mph which was run on my milder map.
Last visit before the transmission let go we saw a 12.0 @ 134mph

I'd like to think a high9-low11 would be on the cards  :driver:

It was the stronger box  :signLOL: severe wheel tramp caused the casing to crack which in turn mashed the s/cut gears.

New box is going in Jan and a few mods to halt the tramp!

I run on Yoko AO48Rs

Do you have a build thread for the "trolley" Luca would be an interesting read :popcornsoda:

Luca, with a good drive you should piss 9's with a 134mph terminal.. It does get harder to take time off the lower you get, but I expect good things from you my friend  :happy2: Just want to hope that Specky doesn't roll up in the Tigra  :scared:
As a reference, my best 1/4 was a 12.7 @ 114mph on road tyres (PS2's)..

Interesting reading this  :laugh:

I didn't realise you could just do top speed runs as well which I'd be interested in.
Are there still spaces available?  :party:

Haha, I made Specky swear at me when I was up at RS Tuning.
He was sorting his wiring loom out for the car and I had the ED30 on nitrous on the dyno.

If I remember right his exact words were.

"F**k me, you've got more torque than my Tigra!!!"

Golf R gone.
