Next time I won't be so friendly

[Guest steve_m77]

car had loads of power(95mph down the straight)just the tyres were real pants,but thats the idea to find out whats right and wrong on a track day

If you managed to get 95mph down the straight then there's nothing at all wrong with your car ! Keep it exactly as it is as 95mph is probably what the Jedi's were doing down there ! You must have gone through the top chicaine better than anybody else too.

 

With 95mph down the straight you much have stopped for a cup of coffee half way round to get the times you recorded.

 

Do you think it's time to check your speedo accuracy

The fastest Jedi was about 46s from memory, massive gap between them and the other cars. The times wil be up on the RAF MSA web site in a few days.

Try to change your order to 205 or bigger if you can at the back, it will make a positive diference.

[Guest Busa Rush]

next time won't have understeer so will be faster times

 

i can't wait

 

xxxxxx :gdit:

[Guest Busa Rush]

it's only 10mm steve they are doing a 215 now...

 

 

i have e mailed the guy at the raf about that track day

 

talk to you later

[Guest megablade]

Or to post on the message board

 

I was only hitting 80 down the straight, perhaps my balls are bigger

[Guest rizla]

would have done but they dont do a 50 profile in the 195 to match the 215 yet due out soon,il stick with these to start then when they wear out(wont be long im sure)il get the 215

On Sunday there were 3 Jedi's, all with different engines. The fastest had a modified Blackbird (1100cc) engine with about 160bhp. The other 2 were fireblade and R1 powered, 900 or so and 998 cc.

 

They weighed 400 Kg, including the driver ! My car is about 620Kg including the driver
