    Owain, if that is *actually* your true, honest view point then I do have to wonder why you still grace us with your presence? Dunno

    It does yes, but it still doesn't solve the problem.

    Traction is the problem in first and second, third too for the HB boys I imagine.

    Back on track then..... Lol (as much as I love a good stan slagging thread) Well I'm taking my low boost 6 up the strip in mid march so will find out what she does then. But yes I don't expect a lot to be honest considering the gearing though it does eat through the first 2. Still got a standard diff currently so traction won't be great.... Car will be stripped to circa 1100-1150kg by then and has lightened flywheel and crank pulley. If I get sub 14 I'll be happy.

    If I was doing the quarter mile all the time in mine


    Right, let's do some maths.

    Stan rolls his car six feet forwards then back once a week because that's what owning a car is all about. So that's twelve feet.

    5280 feet in a mile, so 1320 in a 1/4 mile.

    That's 110 iterations of Stan's "weekly hoon".

    Therefore Stan's 1/4 mile time is two years and six weeks. Add that one to your chart.


    Thats all very good but he would wear out the carpet that hes had fitted

    This is true but for me I've had too many "surprises" around bends to drive like that these days so it's all straight lines now.

    Wouldn't call it dull but yes straight line driving is for tossers. It's all about the twistes Wink. But it's something ive never done before and am intreagued as to how quick my stripped supercharged 6 will do 1/4 mile. As well as having seen the look on a supra drivers face when he couldn't pull away from me and I slowly crept past on the way to silverstone last year it's a great feeling surprising people haha!
