3 cups, 2 in the car park, and one racing, me and my mate had a bit crack with you and your mate with the focus. J3NADS clio creation. 2 williams and JPW172 who was parked behind me.



Good day, thankfully the rain held off!

[jezp]

[FlamingMonkey]

I was one of the Willys and 2live was the other Willy

 

[Chris n nic]

Most probably Timo in the cup and his bro charlie in the focus...

Chris

 

[MATT BLACK]

yeh it was tim and charlie - incidentally did anyone see the Black Dodge SRT 10 Pick up truck with the 22" chrome wheels & the 8ltr V10 500 bhp viper engine fitted - tim and charlies dad strikes again. You wont beleive the machinery these guys own. You kinda feel humble in there presence.

 

[FlamingMonkey]

Was that the shiny black one that rolled in clean as?

Nice motor, preferred the Lambo he had though

 

[J6OWEN]

I was gonna come to Drag Strip but thought it would of been raining because it was in Driffield where i live!

Anyone know wat 1/4 mile times the 172cup was doing?

Ive got a cup myself its 180BHP at the wheels but not had it down the strip yet, wishin i had come to york now.

 

[MATT BLACK]

180 at the wheels - is it twin engined ?

 

[J6OWEN]

No, it just how i bought it only had it 2months

 

[Waitey]

180 atw! More like at the fly. Bens supercharged saxo is only 180 atw.

By the way J6OWEN your exhaust doesnt hang level i seem to recall.

 

[Clarkie172]

i wish mine was 180 ATW!lol ....must be fly! surely?!

 

[JayGTT]

ive got 170 atws not in my 172 tho, my 172 has 135 atws

 

[MickeyO]

180 @ wheels

must be rapid

whats it had done to it??

mines 164 bhp @ wheels, and thats with K&n, full decat, and powerflow exhaust.

 

[Martin]

lol think I need a k&n! 164 atw is around 196 bhp atf! A lot of power for zorst and k&n??

 

[Chris n nic]

I think it was done with the gtec meter m8y

 

[Martin]

Oh right, thatll explain it then.....

 

[J6OWEN]

Its fairly rapid, blew my mate off the other day on the bypass around the town were i live he has a standard pulsar!!!

Im still trying to find out exactly whats been done to it cos its how I bought it from the garage about 3mths ago.

Its got stainless steel backbox, K&N and oil breather.

Im booking it back into the garage were I had it on rolling road to try find out what else has been done to it.

 

[docter fox]

180bhp at the flywheel(s) or perhaps theres a turbo hiding behind that K&N of yours?

 

[J6OWEN]

wish there was a turbo hiding behind there!!!! but would probably have more like 250BHP with a turbo cos already looked at the conversion.

Really need to find out whats been done to it because it seems strange what power its pushing out.

 

[JPW172]
