Viper - Good to have a chat and hope the trip back to the IoM wasn't too painful with your clutch. See you at the next one.

Great day, and the drive back was fine, once in 6th gear, I just stayed there!

Another great Vmax. 198 on the final run (sorry Leon)having being stuck at 196/7 all day. The Yellow Peril is still poorly with a duff MAF sensor so there is more to come esp when I track down that 102 octane jungle juice that Leon was running!

102 octane jungle juice and I thought I was doing well on Tesco shopping 99.

Right thats it,,,,,WAR of THE JUICES,,,,

I'm off to find this 102 so I can make 203 yes siree...

Mark.

Good to see you again Dave hope you get your mass dispencer fixed.

Hi Mark, We're fitting a towing hitch so we can bring a bowser of the stuff with us next time.....

Did the Nobles really do 178 and 180 through the traps?

Mine topped out around 160...

Edited by s3am on Sunday 8th October 23:16

Both heavily non-standard (IRO 500bhp I think)....

Then the world makes sense again...



What amazing speeds from Lee's creations!

Got a passenger ride in Phil's 3R, it really takes off over 5000rpm! We did 178mph on that run.

My completely standard 3R recorded 161mph through the traps, which is slightly up on what I expected.

mark, didn't you know that you should never shop at tesco...all that cheap food for breakfast wouldn't have helped

[drhildr]

Well then the thumbscrews would have to come out...

I made it my goal to match your score Leon - last run, on my own, nearly empty tank etc so pretty much a last gasp effort but gave me something to work to!

Oh, and Pete, cheers for shuffling over on the trip back. Hit the M25 at around quarter to six, but it was slow going for a loooong way.

I did the same on my last run, I through out the palace Library,Put some Champers in the tank,it worked

Mark - I reckon that, if you ditched the Multi-gym out of the boot and the free weights from the glove box you would be on the pace....

Now maths was never my strong point Leon but using your sums that means that mine will be about 900bhp with the same juice...... Demon Tweeks here I come!
