Just got back from the Pod, witnessed the first 10.6 @ 141mph.
Then in the knock out rounds he pulls a 10.7 @ 144mph! Showing its got more power in there somewhere!:D
Was really pulling, hard to believe a 5 could go like that.
Toomy B did well today, upping the nitrous abit on his saw a 12.1 @ 110mph.:agree:
Backyard boys were doing well in there Civic, not quite hit the 10's yet bit still going well in the HKS series

I remember meeting Scoff for the first time at poss MY last RR, and he was just a quiet lad standing at the back watching
next time I saw him, he was had one of the quickest C1J's going
now having seen him squeeze a vag lump in a 5 and do this time with an f engine
he's just AMAZING!
(plus he proved his car CAN go around corners on a welsh mountain!! there's a VID somewhere to proove it!!!!)
Chris buddy! well done!

09-05-2010, 21:25
my thoughts exactly
:yeah: Well done Scoff! Truely awsome! :burnrubber::cylon:
:agree::agree::agree:
hey, thanks for the words guys :agree:
it was a long time comming as a few of you know, so more a relief than anything else.
the engine had been capable of a 10sec pass for while already but the rest of the system (gear ratio's, synchro's, other bits and bats) were causing a headache. the new gearbox build finally seemed to work well, only missing 2nd gear once in the knock-out round against James Hodson (10sec VW golf, ex FWD champion). I would have had him otherwise :D Reeled him in once it came up on song at the end of the track. Missing that gear was the end of my ESC round but not after 5 runs - the first 2 with a phantom rev limit @ 6500rpm which turned out to be the launch control intermittently activating while on the move. I ran the rest of the day with launch control disconnected and still managed a 1.67 and 1.68 60's in my last 2 runs of the day.
Pretty happy with the 144mph trap, with a heavier car too now. I had expected a best some 6-7mph slower than that.
The engine has a slight missfire at the top of the track that I need to resolve, it could be that I'm blowing the spark out at high boost or that the injectors are falling over at high duty. unsure, but I can work on that for next time.
Big thanks to glenn Hi5 and andy speck who came along as pit crew and helped immensly throught the day.
Finally, big well done to tommy b also, 12.1 from a standard T2 ! W.T.F !! :agree:
Glenn left his camera with me, I'll see about uploading some vids.

To go from a 10.6 in to 9s is some work, its alot easier to go from say a 12-11.. Im sure scoff can put this car in to a 9 one day... Id love it to be the first FWD car in to tha 9`s that would be awsome..... :agree:

God damn man, I was thinkin your car could just dip into the 10s but to get a 10.6 is a big thing dude, awesome work bud, remind me at pod day to get you a beer :beer:

(its from a jvc everio camcorder) i found a converter online, but it puts a silly watermark over the vids :(

I'll hold you to that beer you know ;)
without wishing to sound overly optimistic (and those that know me properly will know that I am the least optimistic person you're ever likely to meet!!) but 10.6 for the car's terminal speeds is pretty piss poor. I was a bit annoyed at myself - I hadn't driven the strip for 8 months and it was like I'd forgotten how. The runs are very poor technically as any real racer who watches the video's will be quick to spot. First time out, new engine and a new race series to get my head around so decided to cut myself a little slack!

The key is the gearbox, that always was, and still is the major hurdle to overcome. Scoff might be interested in swapping the Tokyo Taxi for a gearbox conversion....

Mart, in the wider Clio shell you could shuv in any VW gearbox you like - one of the newer 6 speed units which are equally as robust and don't have the cruddy synchromesh setup that my older o2j transmission has. Would love to see you do something a bit off the wall like that :)
It's tempting mate, very.

it would be interesting to compare some slips scoff (not ours, no comparision lol)
but we raced the TDI north car on 1 race, he ran 10.5 i think, so close to your ET, but with 138mph, he also pulled 1.6x 60ft as you do, but i did notice he was at 114mph 1/8th`s, you can compare the slip in full if you want it, might find some usefull data

I didn't go that quick in the 1/8th rob, about 105mph average I think but that should rocket if I can improve the 330'.

Thanks Chris. I'll try Retro show, not sure I could face USC but that depends on who else might go for the day.;)
Now then rob, you've managed to post up all my worst bits :laugh: 1st 2 runs there I should point out had a phantom rev limit @ 6500rpm in 2nd and 3rd that was later determined to be the launch control gone faulty. Peak power comes up @ about 8krpm so you can see it was a bit of a problem. The burnout on the last video was me trying to get the box into 2nd to really heat the tyres up but it just wouldn't have it. I gave up trying.
Andy, tyres, yes I was concerned my skinny wheels would not pass scruiteneering because of the speed rating. They weigh a tonne those things, I need some real skinny rear wheels. The supplier of my drag wheels still does not have any matching rears in stock after 6 months of asking :crap:

Peak power comes up @ about 8krpm so you can see it was a bit of a problem. The burnout on the last video was me trying to get the box into 2nd to really heat the tyres up but it just wouldn't have it. I gave up trying.
sorry dude, that was all i managed to get, was a bit busy ;)
:DDid something touch cloth on that second run?!:scratch:
My right foot would have been very light after that:eek:
That's some good footage rob:agree:
