Would be good to see ome of you there!!! :bow:

:D allways,never to sure if somethings going to fall off on way down or or go pop! :D

lol, well i only managed 2 days before sommit happened last time my Z was fixed, so im hoping it gets there, not to mention the strip and back home LOL!!

Mustn't get pissed, mustn't get pissed, go to bed early.....

Checked me oil and that's it....I'm gonna get my ass kicked tomorrow - i can feel it! Should be good laugh anyway! :dance:

Good man, Ive only had a couple of whiskys tonight, no grub, couple of laxitives and im ready :D:D

 

BTW, you will get your ass kicked!! :p

Oh and its always a laff!!! :D:D:D

Surely 2+2, NA, auto, targa means mine's the slowest car on the forum - standard except 17" wheels... *****x!

 

Oh well, I'll get up early and perfect my "easi-start" into the airbox home brew tube lash up and show you what real power is. :rofl: :rofl: :nelson:

 

Ah well, another bottle of 'great white cider' should help prepare me for the big day.

Id tip some of that Cider in yer fuel tank matey! ;)

Back from santa pod. Good weather for it too. Ran a 14.5@97mph with the standard chip at 10 psi (ran 15.2@94 with superchip and 13psi before?????) so happy with that. Should be a lot faster by the next round after having all the parts in my garage fitted hopefully!! Impressed with the 13.3 i saw Chunk run.

Yep, was a top day, great weather albeit a strongish sidewind (and no, i didnt have a curry last night)

 

Some good times today.

 

My best was 13.339 @ 105.87, bloomin well chuffed as the swb was only put back on the road yesterday and i set the boost controller up en route on the M1.

 

Nearly beat my PB of 13.286 @ 106.89 but that was in my old 2+2 and that was setup to perfection!!

 

My 60ft times just got better and better thoughout the day, started off with 2.28 and ended up with 2.13, i need to get that down a fair bit more, just a shame that when i got the 2.13 60ft, i was on a lower boost setting :mad:

 

I had 7 runs, worst was 13.559 @ 104.43, so all within 0.22 of a sec, well chuffed with that!! I won all my runs :D:D and no, i didnt just go up agaist corsa's!! I beat a R33 GTR with biggish tubs by 0.04, he didnt even go to collect his time slips, he just drove staight out!! LMAO!!

 

Well done to Slick Pete, improved his PB in his SWB na by .5 :D

 

SteveJ ran good constant low 16's in his SWB na Auto

 

Craig David was my suprise of the day, 15.8 in his 1999, 2+2 na Auto!! First time at the pod in a car! :D

 

Top man TonyC was getting very low 14's in his New Evo1. Well done buddy!

 

Thanks to Mike Feeney for orgainising, Peach for shutting my bonnet and the pics/camcorder footage! And everyone else that turned up!! :D

 

I had a great day today. Mainly thanks to the company!!

 

All the best

 

See you at the next one 22nd May :D

Just a bit of info. I ran my last couple of runs with the nose panel off and shaved 0.4 secs off my time. Maybe a coincidence but i believe it worked!! :dance:

All the best

 

See you at the next one 22nd May

 

Ditto ME!! Brilliant day out.

Well done to Slick Pete, improved his PB in his SWB na by .5

Yeh 15.507 today vs 15.94 in Feb and 16.07 in March was very pleasing for the old Slickster!!

Im now running a Stillen High flow filter, Cat back Blueflame Custom built Zorst and Kumho V70A track day tyres.

I managed to get the burnout technique refined today as well. Finally getting some consistent times.

Better choice of footwear also helped launch technique.

Lots of little things added up to 0.44sec improvement and maybe a little more to come?

Goin back to Blueflame soon to get front pipes done.

Roll on May 22
