¼ Mile At Pod - Saturday October 19th

[Flat Eric]

Lol Chris, you was on form today.

As always

That steward was fuming!

 

[B00mer]

CS Dave you were lucky you were in a crowded place as old B00mer seems to like Cannock Chase for some reason!

And where were you today Don, getting grass stains I presume

 

[davo172]

Rubber Fist



Just gonna leave that there

FLOL roof mounted ?

 

[MartinR]

Don't know if this has worked click the pic to watch.

 

[B00mer]

My best run of the day, shame it was a solo run

 

[Chi]

Nice to meet you guys today, best time today of 14.4 @ 99 mph, couldn't get any traction.

I was gonna take my clio but definitely would of struggled for traction.

 

[MartinR]

My best run of the day, shame it was a solo run

Nice one tom. Weird you are in 4th 3/4 of the way up and im in 3rd as i was crossing the line all day??? Maybe i should have changed to 4th instead of bottoming 3rd out.

 

[davo172]

FLOL at the black country comentry ! Tom Post your first run when Dave was in and you couldn't see a colour you liked on the traffic lights
These vids will need subtitles for yo non black country folk

 

[MartinR]

Lol yep i always cringe when i hear myself.

Tom's video of dave telling him to go was flipping funny.

 

[B00mer]

Now in my defence I was given false information on how the lights would appear. 2 lights for position then each amber would light up individually and then green AND it was my first time

Anyway good job Dave was in the car to tell me when to go :rasp: thanks Dave.

Skip to 30 seconds.

 

[cs_dave]

A dave in your car ftw!

 

[Northy 8]

Remember the clock only starts when u move
Sometimes better to get everything right for a few seconds than rush

 

[cs_dave]

Not when your trying to beat the car next to you lol if tom was on the ball we would of won

 

[Northy 8]

That's true mate lol
Were there any lightly tuned ones run like cams and a map

Here's the footage I got of Wayne's run

 

[MartinR]

Get off the line well Wayne. Im doing it all wrong all the videos i have seen everyone is in 4th 3/4 the way up im flatout in 3rd as i cross the line.??

 

[Northy 8]

When I went to pod in June it was 30c
I had to change into 4th about 50 yds from the line
Had it re mapped now with a gain of 400 rpm so might hang onto 3rd

 

[Flat Eric]

Doesn't the power tail off after 6 or so k?

 

[Northy 8]

Still better to hang on than another change

 

[MartinR]

Doesn't the power tail off after 6 or so k?

I think so Chris yeh but mine still feels strong right at the top end of 3rd. Shall try changing to 4th early next time to see if it makes a difference.

It's those tyres of Chris's, loads of grip. If you listen closely it actually bogs down, I had to dip the clutch to bring the revs back which brought it back to life.
With sticky rubber the car wants a 3.5k+ launch instead of 2.5k-3k which I was doing...Anyone know of a transmission rebuild place?!?!
