I have heard that Brigsy in the van has done a 13.09 with I think it was 109 terminal.

Markey mark in the campus has done a 12.6 with 104 terminal

A Civic has done 10.9 secs this is not the back yard racing civic though.

Hey guys from memory brigsy got a 12.8 in the van I think! Not hundred percent on that one but scoff ran a 10.524 I think it was 10.5 something anyway so he's broke his record

It was great there today, bloody good turnout. More camping than i thought aswell so they will be there 2moz.

Loved Markey marks Campus. Thats just badass!!

Also saw a very nice Pearlesant white 5 flying up the strip this morning that had me drooling. Whos was that?

I'm glad to say my 5 kept up with the turbo lads on the motorway and it got some nice comments from new peeps I met. Always nice that. :agree:

Good to chat with the usual crew and make some new buddies.

I loved Goo's enthusiasm, at one point this morning im sure his mates were pulling bits of the engine to see if it would go faster. :wasntme: Quality.

Great to see such good turn out!! Keep it up RTOC.

had a great day - good to meet some new faces and also see some of the regulars again... didn't think the Williams did too bad.. 15.09 for a standard car... most addictive fun.. hope to do it again sometime!

21-05-2010, 20:18
Just got in - awesome day and a fair few fcuking awesome cars!

We all know how clued up Scoff is but his R5 is something out of this world. He's put some serious time, effort and of course knowledge into that car and it's paying off!

He did a few runs - varying from 10.3 to 10.5sec @ 143mph :agree:

Glen Hi5's efi/nitrous car was pretty poky :D

Marky Marks campus was pulling 12s til it decided to misbehave :p

TommyBs brother in the silver ph1 took a serious amount of stick and it never missed a beat pulling low 13s all day long!

Brigsys van was quite good - pulled a 12sqm like he said he would/wanted :agree:

Roll on National Day :)

Markey Mark (BD)
21-05-2010, 21:16
Just got in myself, had an awesome day. :D

Campus didn't do too bad for its first outing, yeah she decided to have abit of a paddy later on in the day. Had no idea something was wromng with it till i saw colour of water, nicely mixed with oil in the header tank but oil in engine is fine.
Don't worry she'll be back soon with a few more tweeks! :D
Best of the day was a 12.65@108.2

Scoff's car is just amazing me more and more everytime i see it, awesome time!

Glens (Hi 5) car was going well till the box had a problem which was a shame.

BYR boys are back in the tens, saw them pull a 10.9@131mph near end of the day :agree:

In all had an awesome day, same again next year! :)

I saw him do an 11.9 but remember him mentioning that his highest terminal of the day was 123mph

21-05-2010, 22:47
had a great day out, rinsing my little shed up the strip all day :smokin:, and it never missed a beat.

just in the door 5 mins , sunburnt, tired and skint (£200 on fuel trailering the 5 to the pod ), best run out of the 11runs i got in the morning before i lost the alty belt and for some reason the lower altenator bolt was a 13.08@112mph i was just feeling the new tyres starting to work when the belt snapped kinda gutted to be honest really wanted to get a 12s pass today its defo there if i could just get the starts right and maybe some traction, maybe next year :(

thanks to the guys that offered help today pushing the 5 from the end of the strip, the guy that gave me the fan belt and especially the 2 guys that grabbed the marquee legs after a sudden gust of wind almost dragged it across my car cheers guys nice reactions :agree:

Dodgems was quality last night, totally unexpected, some real nice cars outside today too, GTR OWNERS club etc. Mmmm.

Unfortunate issue with heater matrix completely failing this morning meant for some PMT nodding to the hoses in the bay, and a 13mm socket.. lol

See you all at mallory !!

22-05-2010, 12:22
Didn't get back till 1am, sat on the M6 stuck in road works at brum!

10.37 @ 143.9 for the final run, really pleased with that. managed not to video it with the in-car and non of the normal crowd got a video either so if anyone captured it I'd be made up if you could send it over :)

Spooky
22-05-2010, 12:48
Chris, I waited for ages for that run, I had a vid cam ready for it but I needed to go to the loo quite badly, theres only so long you can hold back...and sods law you pull a 10.3 when I decide to go :laugh:

I do have a couple of ok vids on my iPhone which I'll upload later...both were the 10.5 runs :smokin:

Top day and night, great turn out and as per usual RTOC the weather was booked in advance.

Good Midlands turn out, well done LampsRS and Ian MM for 13 sec runs, my car ran a mid 14 but was holding back in 3rd boooooooo...........kris M and spooky I might have to take up some offers of carb help :D

Brigsy............that van is class, love it.

Never thought i'd see the day an RTOC fire was put out by a fire truck :wasntme:, but it relighted itself (BYR ;))

Matt Hall was at his first show, top lad we played him up all weekend with tricks like thinking his car was on fire but he took it all in good jest.

Looking forward to ND already

aiii, a cracking day out had by us, mucho thanks to everyone for organsing it :)

our day was a bit dissapointing really, spent a good few hours early on trying to get our new boost controller working, (which lets us control boost in every gear), but alas could not get it working, so had to re-fit the bleed valve :(
once we got it back up to its normal boost levels we then was back to low traction in 1st and 2nd, 30psi in 1st gear=:sad2:, (anyone who saw our later passes would know what im talking about :laugh: ) but then upon checking our datalogs realised car was rather lean, so started to adjust the map, but hit 100% injector duty, so could go no further with the tuning. car is making more power now than last year, as we didnt max out the injectors last year, but now its 130kg heavier, hence only the same 10.9@132 lol

great chatting with everyone, and an amusing night :D

Nice to catch up with everyone! Top weekend, I was worn out by the end of it 4 hours sleep in 4 days just isn't healthy!

I managed a 13.4 @ 97mph at 20psi in the raider, I had to come completely off the gas about 5/6car lengths from the line.

I did run a 99.6 terminal but had problems with the flote/chamber emptying at the top of third/fourth.

Few tweeks to try and hopefully more boost should see that improve:D

Scoff your car is a monster!:agree:

Plenty of good times by other fives. who ever has the white five with the polished willy wheels, that looks :cool::agree:.

22-05-2010, 20:01
another fantastic few days at pod a big thanks to stu and miller who organised it all...and good luck for any future events to big steve.....pod staff are top notch...the dodgems a winner....all our cars almost ok stus and robbos 5lag back on there t2 after a midnight change over in the hotel car park it had to happen...jonty put his new turbo off adam on in the campsite then did a few runs up the strip all good......ashys unfortunatly had to come home on the aa truck and will be home at approx 12 midnight tonight so a long day for him...and mine seems ok after 14 runs and a good caning on the motorway just a fuelling problem when flat shifting???? need to look at that but markey mark and brigsy had a similar fault??? temps maybe?? but yeah these events getting better every year well done RTOC :agree:

Rob@Backyardracing
22-05-2010, 21:11

22-05-2010, 21:38
Another awesome do at the pod:D good to see the regs & new faces.

Finally broke the van into the twelves with a 12.8@106. Done it on 2nd run then struggled to do a clean run again due to fuelling problems! Done a few 13.0 runs so its heading in the right direction :cool:

Awesome crack on the evening, some rtoc comedy gold moments:D Roll on the next one.

Got some good pics here will get them uploaded soon:)

The new Bill J
22-05-2010, 22:23
Brilliant :agree:

What an event - That must have been the best one I've been to in a long time. It was good to see so any old faces up there, and meet a few new people as well. That was my first time at 'pod in two years, and although I'm not a huge fan of drag racing, I've really missed the place/events there.

It was a bit strange at times. As cars drove past, a few of us were recognising the cars, but the owners have all changed. Several rounds of: 'Look, it's such and such's old car' rang out throughout the day. It's good to see them all still going though.

The campsite/beer antics were hilarious, with plenty of gold moments, and comments. The winner for me has to be Ricardo's 'Barry Sheen'. And I just have to say a few thank you's to: Steve and Onion, Sammy Tripod, Mart and Vinegar, Ray Banned, and of course, Billy Pallet :laugh:

Fair play to the 'pod staff for opening up the dodgems - What a laugh that was.

Finally, congrats to Scoff as well. I never got a chance to speak to you during the day, but Holy crap, that thing is awesome! You're also a nutter. Firstly, you're driving a Renault 5 at over 140mph :scared:. Secondly, you're running a gtt from standstill to off the clock in less than 1/4 of a mile :scared:. And thirdly, you're doing it with 6psi of air in the front tyres :eek:

Lunatic :agree:

Dude...your carb spec isn't bad but it's not ideal...the main jet is too big for starters tho :p

Stick a 1.2mm main jet back in and look at the a/c and enrichment circuit for additional fuelling on boost and increased revs.

Has the a/c been adjusted?

Any enrichment circuit modifications?

You're more than welcome to wing it down to me for a day of tweeking and tuning...you won't see much change out of 20psi though :burnrubber: :p

Wow cracking day as always :agree: thanks to the committee and all those that helped organise the day.

Great to see everyone old and new. :) and well done on some great times.

I did 15 runs before I popped the car. :cry: The best run was a 14.01@100mph So close to my taget of cracking a 13 with with all my interior still in place. But the best part was seeing my 60ft times come down from 2.7 at the start of the day to 2.1 :cool: with my normal road tyres still on.:D As said by a few other people said on the day I also had what felt like a cutting out issue when hooking 2nd&3rd so never got a clean run. :confused:

Car is almost back together one of the fire rings on the H/G looked like an egg. :crap:

Massive thanks to Robbie aka Turbo Ted for putting my car on his towing dolly and letting me drive his Stock 5 GTT home, Wow what a pleasure that car is too drive you forget how nice these cars are out of the box. :agree::agree:

Bit gutted to not be racing but watching some of you lads running 10's has given me some motivation. The night time antics also made up for not racing, thanks for the guys who sold me 20 cans of stella at 12, me and a few others got through 68 cans in the end. And did I feel it in the morning, thaks to all those we camped with and a massive thank you for mike for bringing the bbq. Roll on next year with the renda

Thank god Krissy M didnt go wild with his extinguisher and spray my bay but thanks for the carb lesson and im with J8tro be good to come down and see how you use your LM1 so we can all do it our selves up in the West Midlands.

lol, cheers boys, yeah remarkably it behaved itself impeccably for once, my last trip to pod i stripped first gear on the first run of the day!!! lmao!

as said, room for improvement yet, if i can sort my 60ft to sub 2 secs i should see the business end of the 12's so thats something to aim for as the terminal speed is healthy enough :cool:

yeah, did you dig the irony of the hulk t-shirt on the skinniest guy there :agree: :laugh:

Didnt know it was you in the pug otherwise i'd have come over and said HAI =]

I didnt get back til 11pm on sat night mind after a detour to Liverpool to pick an exhaust up. another great day had by all it seems.

Had a Awesome day, Made me really pleased to be part of the RTOC.

Another massive well done to Scoff, you so have a 9 in the car :agree: Would be insane to be the first uk FWD in to the 9s.

A massive well done to my brother who drove his silver phase 1 to a 13.3@ 101.75 on a T2 with no nitrous. And only with 15psi of boost.

Big thanks to Glenn for the T40 torx, i put that back on your tool box as you were very busy. Also you made an 11 look so damm easy. Also hats off for going 123mph :agree: thats flying for a C1J.

Nice to see a campus run a 12.6 with marky mark at the wheel. :smokin: You know the nitrous makes sense,
