The Cal-look Lounge

We have no specials  this weekend , so everyone can drive the whole day for testing . On Sunday we have our bracket racing . Hope to see some VW's there .

See you Udo

The D.A.S will come with a couple of Cars Udo... ;)

Frank

That's nice . Every VW is wellcome each event , and it is a good chance to do testing before SCC and Dragday . Looks like "the boss " at Bitburg will get a VW to drive very soon .  :D

Udo

we´re unable to come since an old friend gets married (again) the upcoming saturday ... hope this wedding will be the last ...

Tom

Hi Liou

May be , but for me it is good enough for this year , she learned a lot  :)

Udo

Very goog week-end indeed...
new personal record of 13,386 with 1915 cc.
New gearbox seems to keep up with the grip and made some nice wheeling...

Christofe
DAS

yeah, wait for Nicolas's pictures.  ;)
Your gearbox keep up, but some other no...  :-[
The phrase of the day: "When I turn, it brakes..."

yo how!!! it was great even without a car/engine so i had some time to get some shots with the digi.

love this car

and here you see why

and here it is with Mike

Excellent Weekend indeed...some Pictures to Come...!!!

Frank

nice pictures nicolas you 've finally found the way of the digital camera  ;D ;D

Would be nice if you post some pictures here !

Udo

some more.

sorry if i didn't get all the names feel free to PM me so i can fill them in later.

and a few more.

These are Hugo and Karin . Hugo is the old man on the microfone  :D

The orange car is a nice one , just like most of the cars that raced .

Thanks Udo

very nice this bug black wheelie karin lol

Very nice!  :o   how much hp is this car making?

Congrats Christophe! Nice performance.

To Dem; same heads on Christophes engine as i did yours. Hp was 165-170 if i remember correct,maybe Christophe can affirm?

Regards Steve

WOW, nice!  Some aggressive weight reducement on this car or a very short gearbox I suppose?  Massive wheelie time...  :o   :o   My beetle doesn't do this with the same heads...  :'(    ;D 

Our clubmember Jürgen was there, too. He managed to have a new personal best with his Oval. It's full metal, full bumpers, full everything exept for the passenger seat and the rear bench and he drove a 11,81 sec @ 111,66 mph

Congrats to him, having the fastest street car in DFL!

Does anyone has pictures from his car last weekend? For those who don't know his Oval, here it is:

Great job christophe , happy for you !!

Hi Georg

He did only one pass as far as i know . But i am happy so it was worth the work on the engine :D

Udo

sorry no pic... would love to have one though...

anyway i am reworking some pics in high res for you Christofe. just mail me the size of the frames  ;D ;D ;D

To Steve and Dem,

Yep engine did between 165 and 170 HP on the Dyno without fan belt 4 years ago.

No weight reducing, full body, full trim. (rear bench and passenger seat removed)

And still, I do weight 95 kg myself  ::) ::)

But what changed is a new gearbox, i'm passing the 400 m line at 6500 rpm.

And for the first time did my burn out in second gear wich seems to work great and be more gentle for the gearbox.

Now next step is to have this engine running on E85 fuel and maybe a higher compression as I'm "only" at 9:1 or 9,5:1

So I'm happy with the results I just hope this gearbox will keep it up for a while  ;D
Christofe

PS : I WANT TO GET THIS 1915CC ENGINE IN THE 12's
      I'm sure it can, after that I'll build something else maybe a real racer. ;D

Christofe
D.A.S.

I LOVE that car! What a lucky guy! Well done Jürgen on your ET!

Rob.

go for it christophe, it's possible.  trash was doing 11's with a 1776... 
6500 rpm in forth or in tirth when you cross the line?

in 4th gear. so all is tight, but works really well for the real stuff.

to Dem;

My beetle doesn't do this with the same heads...       

That's normal your car isn't doing the same ...you need to drive it "HARDCORE" on the STRIP...not around the church in "Stekene city"...  ;D

Regards Steve

LOL  I will go hardcore around the church in Stekene...  Can I call you when I'm arrested?  ;D

Iam very happy with the ET.This was the first Test Run with only 2 velocity stacks, too much Air in the Slicks and any other Problems.So i am very happy and hope for any good Runs on DDD6.
