Well on my birthday I entered my first competition at Elvington, York....was a very very wet day!! Would have been a lot better in the dry, but never mind, it was still fun!

Really enjoyed it, but I now realise I seriously need some practise and need to get my launches right, as they were letting me down. Only managed 14s on the quarter mile    I will improve that though with some practise.

Some pics and vids:

Im in the process of getting a new short block built, using a closed deck block for added strength, all forged parts, and making it a 2.1 Stroker. Hopefully will be able to afford some head work, but not sure on that yet.
Will be getting a new ECU to tie it all together, and will have launch control with that, so that will help me a bit more....although it is cheating a bit.   Will be hoping for around 500bhp next year with a standard fit turbo.....otherwise I will have to get a rotated setup, which isnt cheap either

youre right !

your launch did suck  




looks like good fun tho, did it cost much ?

lol, thanks

Was £70 for all day, but I only stayed until about 2 as it was so wet.

This would have helped:


But good vids.

Holy crap, when you put very very wet you read it as yeah whatever, but the lakes at the end, jesus  

Boo Hoo, my rallycar is getting wet
