Jeremy 200

01-03-2005, 10:10

Hoping to make this!. My starter motor gave up at the 1st one and i only had two runs...neither against a coupe :(

I will be there if my gearbox and clutch hold out lost 2 out of my three races last year most of the coupes will be in the fourteens i hope to get a mid thirteen this year so should get my revenge all being well as long a i dont race my brothers coupe again.

marty_t3

03-03-2005, 00:24

I'll be there... but only to provide moral support and a bootfull of tools

Escy

03-03-2005, 00:27

Me too :D Must find a way of getting traction tho :annoyed:

my advice would be to go on the grass next to the strip. its a grippier surface than the strip. :wack:

i'd like to go, but after the grip levels being so shit last time, i'm not going to bother with Santa Pod anymore. :rolleyes:

good luck guys. remember to turn the boost down, anymore than 5psi will mean no tracton. :whip:

arry

03-03-2005, 00:45

you think the scrabblers wont suffer with grip too? :wack:

Escy

03-03-2005, 01:17

not as much. all there weight is over the front wheels. this is normally a bad thing, but with the piss poor grip on offer at santa pod, they won't be able to launch hard enough for the weight to transfer the the back wheels. neither will the 200sx's, so we will just be spinning up whilst they'll be going steady but surely.

i got hammered off the line and beaten on the 60ft by a 106GTI, 205GTI, Astra, Mitsubishi Colt and a Saxo. it wasn't my lunching technique either, i was going from as low as 2500rpm on some launches.

if its as slippy as it was when i went, you'll be dissapointed guys :(

BodleyTunes

03-03-2005, 08:08

if u get beat by a 106gti of the line there your doing something wrong. Remember they have just as slippy surface as you to deal with!!

leonatlarge

03-03-2005, 18:27

I agree with escy last time we had a sx vs coupe day my brother did a 2.00 sec 60ft in his scrabble wagon which i believe no 200 sx came close [even the lads with traction control]and that was on a red hot day

Papa Lazarou

03-03-2005, 18:29

Are you doing burnouts first?

leonatlarge

03-03-2005, 18:41

I will do burnouts once i ve got the first run out the way

BodleyTunes

03-03-2005, 19:40

Theres a dude on here that got a 2.001s 60ft with stage 1 mods.

03-03-2005, 20:08

Theres a dude on here that got a 2.001s 60ft with stage 1 mods.
I'm certainly a long way from the perfect launch on stage 1 ... and still got a 2.2

03-03-2005, 20:58

I will be there :)

Vez

03-03-2005, 21:20

There are loads of 200's that have pulled 2 or less, mine and Daniel Sans are two that spring to mind ;)

PsYcHeS

03-03-2005, 21:25

And the joy of having a slushbox too, it matters not on grip at the start, its once all the toys kick in when the rims are turning that matters :D

leonatlarge

03-03-2005, 22:20

There are loads of 200's that have pulled 2 or less, mine and Daniel Sans are two that spring to mind ;)
Was that down at santa pod?What do you think the best tyre pressure would be for the pod surface?Imust admit i coud nt get any better than 2.2 on my 16 205s

BodleyTunes

03-03-2005, 22:45

the guy im talking bout was a stage 1 s13 for 2.00 60ft so 230-240bhp - think he got 14.3 @ 98.

I got 2.211 60ft time with 190-200hp, as my car was blowin like mad n standard exhaust / 13psi s13!!!!

Im hoping to get 2 or less with 275bhp

mr2's kaine the 1.8s pretty easy!! they do have big advantage tho.

Sideways

05-03-2005, 22:23

How many cars do you need Vez?, ive never done any drag racing before, and wouldnt mind ago.

Spec as in sig.

If your full up i might come down and watch i recon. :thumbs:

A.D.Cromar

06-03-2005, 01:56

I will be coming along to this one as well :thumbs: Find out the difference stage 2 mods make. See you there.
Dark green s13 with Apex single box. You should hear me arrive :rolleyes:

alanjuggler

06-03-2005, 09:46

i was hoping to be there, but even if i get my car back completed by weds this week, i'll never have run it in by the 13th :(

AntS13

06-03-2005, 10:05

i'll be there to support, but not running, cos it aint set up right and i aint risking blowing it up!

Martin T

06-03-2005, 20:52

Me too :D Must find a way of getting traction tho :annoyed:
Methinks me and you need to have a shootout of the scrabblers :D
You'll have to keep your current wheels and tyres though to keep things fairly even :D

antony

06-03-2005, 22:56

i can make this i think, see if i can do any better than last time

tomo

08-03-2005, 13:55

should be able to make this. hope to show up the scrabblers! ;)

chrischeung

08-03-2005, 14:01

what time is this starting?

cHiL

09-03-2005, 13:25

Does anyone with coilovers change their damping settings for drag runs? If so how do you change them, up or down and why?? Obviously for drag runs you oughta have softer rear springs but we can't all afford to change them for this so what if anything can be done to improve grip etc??

antony

09-03-2005, 16:57

i ran full soft on the back with tein he's which isnt really soft, also streched tyres dont work well, you want fat tyres with about 20 psi in i found.

leonatlarge

10-03-2005, 19:47

Do you need to take driving licence and insurance or neither

SteA

10-03-2005, 19:48

You have to take your driving licence or they wont let you run :thumbs:

cHiL

10-03-2005, 20:02

Right then who's dropping and whos slipping?

Kuddy

10-03-2005, 20:09

take your driving licence or they wont let you run :thumbs:
Good shout Ste :thumbs:

I'm slipping, I have no choice with organic clutch & road tyres.

cHiL

10-03-2005, 20:14

how come? care to elaborate kuddy? or do you just mean you dont wanna leave rubber on the track?

10-03-2005, 20:14

I'm slipping, I have no choice with organic clutch & road tyres.
Snap.

Chil did you see my damping advise update in the other thread?

Kuddy, looks like just the 2 of us for Convoy, I remembered you said The services we met at before was slightly out of your way, want to make it a junction if there will only be 1 car waiting, or a lower down services?

cHiL

10-03-2005, 20:16

Snap.

Chil did you see my damping advise update in the other thread?

yeah cheers! :thumbs:

10-03-2005, 22:02

dont u need a crash helmet too? I always take one to york.

antony

10-03-2005, 22:09

you dont have to, they say if you get over 100mph terminal you need one, i take one anyway.

11-03-2005, 08:27

I didnt need one last time, but will be taking it to be on the safe side.

tross

11-03-2005, 12:03

me and my dad will definately be coming now cos i'm picking my car up from apt tomorrow.

apparantly it's maxing out 740cc injectors at 1.8 bar boost and does over 100 in third - so watch out coupes ;)

Jim

11-03-2005, 12:04

Thats good to hear :D

tross

11-03-2005, 12:05

will be at hwh on thursday too mate :)

Jim

11-03-2005, 12:09

Brilliant stuff, I owe you a drink I think :D

Dan@DB-Power

11-03-2005, 12:11

apparantly it's maxing out 740cc injectors at 1.8 bar boost and does over 100 in third - so watch out coupes ;)

:eek: :eek:

Maxing out 740's is about 500+ bhp isn't it?

tross

11-03-2005, 13:21

possibly, but i reckon high 400's. hopefully in a couple of months i can afford to have some cams put in to stretch the rev range a bit.

jim - donations always appreciated ;)

now all i gotta do is get the kit fitted and it'll look good too!!

Dan@DB-Power

11-03-2005, 13:40

tross

11-03-2005, 14:34

lots ;) depends what on - the bodykit cost 3 grand and that was cheaper than the engine work. not to mention sound system, ancilliaries, turbo, manifold, gearbox, fmic/rad........

leonatlarge

11-03-2005, 15:56

Has nt anyone sorted out who s racing who yet or will it get sorted on the day

tross

12-03-2005, 21:52

sorry chaps can't make it. picked up the car today and it's FAST. seriously fast. so powerful in fact that the clutch has exploded.....

so i gotta take the gearbox off tomorrow and see what the damage is and get a new clutch.

i would have whipped you all tho ;op

leonatlarge

13-03-2005, 07:33

yeah yeah thats what they all say :D

tross

14-03-2005, 12:08

Tross,
Was up @ APT on Saturday. I saw your car (had a good poke around, took a piss on the bonnet etc)

Very nice indeedy mate!
It's BLOHOOOOODY loud. Yours and Brens where parked side by side.
Looked phat :)

i thought the bonnet was a bit yellow....

cheers mate - you should hear it when the screamer pipe starts goin ;) :D

def

14-03-2005, 12:20

one of the scrabbles got 13.3 with 294bhp !!
:no: over 300bhp as he turned the boost up :)

Phil LS

14-03-2005, 12:36

one of the scrabbles got 13.3 with 294bhp !!

and it's the atw figure that's important as FWD has less losses. And all these figures floating around around at the crank "guesstimates"

14-03-2005, 13:31

so what happened?... who got killed by scrabble....
I won 3/4 of my Races :D :D
13.901 with 2.2 60ft was my best, previos PB of 13.897 with 2.2 60ft.

Kuddy

14-03-2005, 13:54

I beat one of the fiat's in the 220-250 bracket (T535) and got beat by Nigel's uber-quick "scrabbler" so 1-1.
Also beat a **** (hadyn) and an Audi A8 but got mullered by some drag car when my rev counter stopped working.

Mr OCD

14-03-2005, 15:01

So did we win or lose? :D

Kuddy

14-03-2005, 15:08

we took part :)

14-03-2005, 15:11

LOL :notworthy

Wouldnt have minded coming down myself but didnt find out about it till SM mentioned it last week so a bit short notice! :o

I doubt my 'standard' car would have done better than a 15 anyway... :ghey:

That Audi is :cool: , a mate of a mate owns it, its only a 4.2 so is quite slow really when it lugs around 2tons.
