thought id post the links to my vids I put on youtube of me in my nova at shakespeare on Sunday.
First 3 runs I did were ****E! as I've not raced the car before and I was quite rusty with the launches and driving like miss daisy.
Anyway gradually brought the times down from 14.4 to 14.2 to 13.6 to
13.45 @ 107.33 - total of 8 runs.
Enjoy! :) :d:d cant wait to attempt it again this time hopefully with MORE POWER!

Thats pretty good, getting used to the surface is a good excuse for poor initial runs.
Ricks old turbo,
glad to see its still being used and abused :thumb:

Jon, glad to see it's still being used as it should be. I really miss it sometimes. Ok, everyday then. :)

good vids :) looks like you need firmer suspension ;)
Good to see the F20 holding out, its not going to do Rick any favours with wanting another

The suspension is quite soft, but that helps with drag racing normally.
If I can upgrade the car to a healthy 280bhp, what times and terminals do you expect should be achievable??
Cheers,
Jon.

Hmmm - I would have thought that soft suspension is a massive hinderance to the quarter mile! ;)
You need it jacked at the back and slammed at the front with max damping!

Yeah I suppose, I have seen fwd drag cars always seem to point to the floor at the front!
Looks dodgy though!
