Finally got to a race where they had proper timing and stuff. This was my first run for the night, but also my first run ever against the tree... I'm happy with the results, considering that I'm still running 13" x 60 x185 tyres, standard 1200 open differential, and no slapper-bars/tram-rods.

Sh!t sorry 'bout that, I'm F.Roux, it's a 1200 GX sedan, running a turbo'ed 4AGZE Toyota on Nankang 13"x65x185 tyres, standard 1200 open differential, and leave springs only, no slapper-bars/tram-rods.

nice work good speed behind it aswell.

get some bigger rubber under there!

if you can get the 60foot time under 2secs (shouldnt be hard to do)

i think a low 13 is in reach with a slight possibility of a high 12?

Thanks, I'm sure with just a bit of practice I might already get into the 13's, as I wheel spin all the way through 1st, 2nd the wheels are still spinning when it gets hooked so it goes about half way through 2nd before finding proper traction.

But, before the next meeting I'll lock the differential, add tram-rods, and try to get some semi's. Semi's of course if finance permits. Was thinking of changing the differential, but I want to see just how much abuse this one can take, it's not even humming yet...

BTW. the other car was a Lotus 7 replica running a potent 2.8 Skyline motor with triple siddies and a pair of semi's on the back. That's evident in the 60 foot times. O and it was a woman driving it...

nice work. a flat 14 is pretty swift, and with that 60 foot time, there's an easy 13 in it the way it is - depending on the track conditions over there.

be interesting to see how much faster it goes next time
