hey guys just got back want to say thanks to everyone because you made the weekend worth staying for

time wise i was averaging 13.3 with reaction times nearly always 0.200 of a second then on the last run i pulled 13.2 but reaction time was 0.6 or something crap so in theroy i could posably broke the 12 barrier i was aiming for

bare in mind i was still only running about standard boost i never did run properly at a bar like i was going to but did switch to high boost on my last run when i got in 4th . only thing was that was the final push the clutch needed and on the way home i couldnt use more than half throttle or take it on boost as it just reved at me instead lol

so better tyres a diff decent clutch 28.psi maybe some gas should see it in 12s maybe 11s but we will see

me and rach headed back to the campp site about 5 took the tent down loaded up chilled and left about 6 real steady ride home as result of the clutch and got back at raches about 7

say it again top weekend
only 1 regret and that is i wish i had used my fire exstinguisher (sp) as i was going to

oh and a special massive thanks to ade lee spud ect for organising the weekend cracking job boys and i hope to see you at billing

Spudly
07-06-09, 08:58 PM

I have a mate who goes to the vdub show there & he reckons it is always fantastic...... maybe vdub shows attract a better kind of person.......

Lee
07-06-09, 09:27 PM
Water cooled V Dub enthusiasts are the most stuck up, pompus, closed minded bunch of twunts I have ever had the mispleasure of sharing various shows with in the early part of my motoring interest. All my opinion of course drawn from a lot of experience late in my teens and early 20's.

WHich is strange as the Air cooled lot are probably the best mass of people to go to a show with!

Yep, as said your reaction can be 12seconds and still get a 12 sec 1/4

Bit different it actual drag racing, but RWYB etc is break the beam, not go on green.

Had a top weekend, really enjoyed the camping, banter and meeting more of you fine folks :thumb:

When I was leaving Pod earlier I saw the blue sky appearing when I was stuck in the queue, had enough of the miserable weather and just wanted to get home by then though!

Hope to see you all again at Billing (and yes I probably still won't be in my Nova but that won't stop me trying).

07-06-09, 10:16 PM
I was feelin the 'rave tent' last night. Top tunes (dnb) before it closed & I was well plastered. Lord knows what time i got up smornin (too early) but if the rain stopped at 10;30... I thought it was more like 12 LOL. I had a cool as feck time with Ste & rach aswell as ben (Novait) & great to finally meet Scott Parker.

Car made it home nicely, though felt strange on boost today but was sweet yesterday. constant fuel smell too. I was high as a kite at home & slightly dehydrated too. MAx speed on my travels? 88mph!

[edit] I have concluded that Corsa VXR's are now the chavs choice of chariot.....

Was that torrential rain on the motorway, rich bailed as he needed a poo and i being more sensible in my elder years these days decided slowing down and taking it steady would be the wise choice of action, think all the rain softened all of the santa pod up my arches and allowed it to escape, my car had mud all up the side when i left pod, now its clean lol
