Bloody hell, talk about LAUNCH!
What was ya time etc out of interest?
11.53 :d
nice, in my defence I bogged the launch good pass by dave
whats in the white one?
nah there's no excuses in drag racing, the car is either right or its wrong and mine was wrong that day. was looking for the timing slip, seem to have lost it this end.
as an asside, I've just finished getting the gt35/40r on, lag has increased further, so I really must fix that gear change issue I have.
Scoff!!! come on mate, whats with that burn out??? give them axle snappers some heat..........
nice vid, good times dave as said before
1.4 C1j
well thats got some go :P what you done to that lump ?
rob, they didn't want any heat that day, I was bogging down.
havn't done any tuning rob, still at min boost while I resolve the gear change problems. unable to full throttle on the road either. not put the new gear oil in yet, will test that tomorrow.
I can cope with lag as long as I can keep it on the boil. that day I was dropping out of boost because of me having to double clutch it up the strip. wierd effect, the more load I put through the gearbox the worse the synchos work. I have some redline MTL synthetic race oil, supposed to be very good at cold shifting, so will try that. It seems that my VW gearbox is supposed to run on some VW oil, which aparantly is super thin, and here's me putting 80/90 in it..
here's one of me having a tear with my mate's scooby. This is after about 2 months of winding each other up about who was going to win. O and i gave him a shade under 3 second head start lol

I was also going a full 5mph quicker whenever I did a warm run too. can only assume that the cold thick gear oil is very lossy in the new gearbox. the GT35r is ball bearing, so while it's a little laggier getting into spool from low rpm's it actually doesn't seem to drop out of spool as easilly between gears. Hopeing this might help too.
its an avi, but here's an incar video from that day showing the problem. note the lag between gears as a result: https://www.rtoc.org/dev/problematic-gear-changing.avi
yeah I remember seeing that run you forgot to do your bonnet catch
But yeah you can see how bad the lag is/was.
well, truth be told I usually only do one catch up anyway, it holds it fine enough
hahahaha NUTTER!!
Soooooo much power loss...aaaarrrrrrrrrrr........ with all that drop and you can still make 100 at 1/8... fook lad your guna go once it stays on power... lossssssssssssssssssssing so much ET on that run you could read a hynes...
