182 & LY Clio 220 ed
Defo a good laugh. I am a walking advertisement for why you should use suncream. Nice to meet faces old and new. Some awesome cars there. My favourite was the Datsun with the GTR lump in there. Also liked the Black 5 turbo who waited for a few seconds before running and still beat most of the opposition. Those Escort MK1s were immense, but if I had one...I would not take it up the strip.
Fair play to all who attended, to Mart for suggestion and the date and to Mother Nature who made it a whole lot better than sitting in -6 degrees as we did at Shakespeare Raceway!

Mike really is sh*t a drag racing, his car can do better times than mine,
but he's never beaten me. lol
That 3 wheeler thing absolutely destroyed me, I was pissing on him until half way,
then he engaged some kind of scram jets and f*cked off into the distance!

If I can beat Impreza's, I can beat you! :evil:
He had his entire f*cking family in the car including a kid in the back! lol
The very next run he ditched his passengers and made sure he was parked next to me,
I would have wiped the floor with him again but my side was covered in sand
so my launch was f*cked before I even started. :dapprove:
He only won by the gap he made at the launch.

.I could do with all of that on mine!
That Renault 5 was immense, I do have a video, I'll see if its any good.
182
All i know was it had a massive fuel pump. And a laptop where the passenger seat was. But had a few efi stickers on it?
He sat there bouncing off the limiter and even letting big v8 wide wheeled drag cars have a head start then boof he'd shoot past.
F7p with a turbo conversion.
pushing over 500hp. Its given him lots of grief with breaking shafts and anything else that rotates but seems like he's doing better now.
think he's in the 11s down the strip.
its street legal and he was a ace cafe regular but now moved back to Ireland.
big boost cup
Ahh cool that should be in the tens once its all sorted out then. do you know the chaps name? intrigued what box etc he is on
His name is Robbie, forum name turbo ted.
box is a normal Renault 5 or clio one with some work done internally, scoff runs a similar setup but around the 700hp mark and he uses the vag 6 speed.
robbie uses a diff and has had work done internally to the box but the latest issue was snapping shafts at the welds where he's had to extend one of breaking the joint.
not bumped into him for a while since he's moved and couldn't make pod today so things may have changed.
you can find him on facebook on the RTOC page, uses his partners name Audrey noonan and plenty of info on the car.

All the photos of the day are on the photographers site,
just check through the different time slots on the top look through them
http://www.blackettphotography.com/...B 2014&eventdate=20140621&eventtime=0939-1000
Most of the ones of mine are a bit meh, except this one which I think I might buy,
I like the fact the xmas tree is in the picture, even better is the fact that
it was against the green Impreza I destroyed. :evil:
I just hope the £15 price tag I was told on the day still applies.

R5GTT, 2L turbo
The black car is Robbie, Turbo ted from ireland. He uses my old 6 speed gearbox internals. I don't think he's snapping the shaft welds, it was the outer CVs the last time I checked. He's switched to the same setup I used which seems OK touch wood. Its an F7P, forged, GT3582R, race fuel and about 570hp. He's gone 10.5 a year or two ago with a bit less power. Struggling for grip this time round I think.
big boost cup
It was mental. Never seen something reel other cars in like that before.
True weapon and would love something like that.
I think he was sub 10's and in low 9's... Needs a bloody parachute!
Low nines would take a fair bit more power and traction. Impressive non the less
