What kind of are most cars coming through that bend onto the straight? 3rd gear type bend?

Yeah I'd say 3rd, some come through about 120mph and some come through about 60mph

[jellison]

When is the next one of these?

Most likely sold my car by then but you never know - be interesting to Top it out - think it would easily pull its top speed looking at that bend and the massive runway after it.

I'm hoping within the next 2 months but you'll have to email CraigW to get on the email list or just keep an eye out on here

You will be surprised. Most of us don't reach are "top" speed.

Which is why anything that has crashed the double ton is remarkable and the 9FF? Otherworldly.

I have over 1.5x the power my car left the factory with same final drive ratio.

There was a red Tivvi with LS power at the last event.

Think it managed a 180 or thereabouts.

That was "Brummmie", I think the number spoken of was 185, which was using his old engine which was limited to 6x00 rpm and with a 3.08 final drive which is the why for only 185.

He has a new upgraded LS engine now which I believe revs past 7k, so if he were to try again now I would bet he would break 200.

200 is a long long long way past 185...... (maybe even further than that)

Yeah familiar with his stats, high 600`s fly, not too shabby at all, but his peak power is about 5500 from memory which will make a high speed run a bit of a lottery.
My best run was a 181 with a similar Cd (.31) and 505RWhp, main problem was the gearing which ultimately became the limitation, (Do I stay in 5th and fall off the curve, or change up to 6th )

Let`s hope he gets the chance to give it a whirl this year.
