PVS is drawing closer and usually about this time of year the abuse and smack talking starts. so, who's going to be ripping up the strip this year and what times are you hoping for. and most importantly, are there any grudges going on???



i'll start by challenging any one in a heavier car with less BHP :D

seriously though, i'm aiming to beat my old PB of 15.9

Im not taking the nova this year. Because a) i cant be ****d with cuing up for the runs and having to deal with a transit and trailer on site as well and b) my current form on 1/4 miles has been less than awesome of late lol

Im bringing the Astray van, which will hopefully suitably chavved by the time the date arrives lol

I might run the red shed, well see if it makes it first! Nova wont be going down as she needs a tidy up and a new 5th gear ratio to stop my ears bleeding

Mike

I'll be running my SR but mostly the day before (camping over) Hoping for low 17's or Possibly (very possibly :thumb: ) high 16's.

I can do 0-60 (with tick over 1200rpm) in about 6.5sec's, or tick over at 1000rpm give me sh1te loads of mid range but **** pull of!

Wait till i get my hands on a Martin Bowyer Engine! 1400cc 8v with 145bhp+ at a cost of ?7.5k :eek:

820kg and about 90bhp (atw) should make an interesting run?? lol

No rev counter, like mine! lol Revs safley to 7k in every gear but to be on the safe side i change gear at 6k (end of my peak power band)
