the surface was rather poor, hence why no 11 second runs, only one car managed to break inot 11s in fwd a that was a civic. Also i think a car lost a wheel on the handling ciruit which ended up going across the drag strip while two cars were hammering down it.
I missed that one!
I did see the Viper completly loose it in the RWD final (v's the MG), he was snaking from the start, but couldn't hold it and nearly wiped the MG out!
Safty isn't really a priority there from the looks of the set-up at TOTB, no concrete reservation on the 1/4 and only a 4ft fence between the spectator's and the cars...
Well done Phil! Fantastic Result for you and the rest of the Vauxhall team.
How come the Terminal speed was so slow on an F28??? I thought they were geared to over 150? was it due to the wheel/tyre size you were running?
Neil
Top speed is taken at 1 mile... regardless of gearing & tyre size etc.
Congrats to team Vauxhall & Chip for organizing. Hope we kick more a$$ next year.
well done Phil, and the purple corsa continues to impress me, seen it run an 11.8 at PV this year!
well done phill, getting closer to 11sec 1/4 !!
well done team vauxhallu have all shown it not all about ?$
well im hoping look at what the purple corsa was running i should be able to break into the 11s at usc next weekend. He was running 0.4 seconds slower at elvington so if i up my nitrous again i might just be able ot do it.
Think there is going to quite a big write up in total vauxhall as the guy took hundreds of pics of all our cars an interviewed us all, so all the correct times an that should in there.
hope so, how much nitrous you running at the minute ??
only 50bhp at the moment, held back on as i havent really had much testing with it, its taken it good so far so im going to ram some more in it.
