Sat at pod in the que, so thought I would post this up. Glenn's first run of the day was 11.20 at 124, still at base settings :-) We mapped for quite a lot more boost last week so we'll see how it goes.

Predictions for yerself ??
Nice day for it :cool:
hopefully he can pull a 10 today. well done bud
11.20! Thats good going, not far off the 11.1 target.
I think a 10 is getting close now. :agree:
The day has been chocka :-( only managed 3 passes pulling another 11.2 atleast. Just started to rain after sitting in the que for 2 hrs. Shame we couldnt quite pip the 11.14 of Giannis.
wow, good going! flying on a c1j that is :) short track must be spot on.
well done glenn :D
p.s, i reckon a brand new set of those 23`s will see a 10th off the ET, gotta be worth it for the record ;)
just got off the blower with glen looks like with a bit better weather and minimal knobheads then the record would have been done today.....still looking forward to the next one might even make an appearance :cool: very well done m8:agree:

but maybe 24in will be better. 600th of second not far now but all good car just gets better and better thanks to the mad sceintist and my self seems like c1js is have something to offer:Dreally good day felt like **** myself glad the car didnt :)
Long day today, worth it though. The que's were frustrating, I remembered why I don't do RYWB's - crap prep, crap service.
The car was spot on again all day, well done to glenn for some awsome driving. Rob, you're bang on, I've never seen an 8th so quick from a GTT ever. Launch was bang on, gear changes right on the money, but annoyingly the first run was the only time the track was any good. The rest of the day we were having to pull power out of 1st gear. Then, come the HKS qual session they glued the track again and it was ace. A storming 60' was had shortly afterward only to be followed by a slipping clutch in 2nd, 3rd and 4th. Turns out the pedal quadrant had jammed up and was keeping the cable under tension. easy fix but track had closed by the time we were ready to rock again. We didn't even get chance to try the new settings or boost. Hoping flame and thunder will be dry.
et voila :)

Quick update lads.
Last week we re-mapped glenn's car on some new 600cc injectors having maxed the 440cc's that were in before.
Today he's away racing again and just phoned me to say he's done another 11.2 @ 128.1 mph with 100mph in the 1/8th :D C1J power :D
Struggling for grip a little bit, 60 foot's only in 1.8's so he's back out with slightly less power in 1st gear to try and make it hook up.
Bloody awesome Scoff, that engine is just testatament to how good the C1J can be if its built well!!Quote:

MH 23" x 8 racemasters... is what glen ran but he will but upping the size.. I wouldnt recommend going to the 24.5 (which glen needs) unless you can match his 128mph trap from the off... they do a 22" inch option that works well for say 115mph trap cars.. DONT get them old mt`s back on them days are well over... :)
Hi jack again lol... Where do you lot get your tyres from??

Btw, that's Chris miller of NRG running regular 8's in his B18 Honda (Rob is his No.1 superfan :D). Notice how he jumps on the brakes before the end of the track on both runs to stop him breaking out of the class.
careful chris, you'll make rob cream his pants just by mentioning NRG :laugh:
get there 1 day son dont worry :devil:Quote:
