wish me luck

[Steve G]

I'm planning on going.
Taking my new toy, Quarter Pounder, out for the first time.

[Jim Smith]

Go large Steve!!!     

[Steve G]

I think I'll go medium first Jim!
The plan is to have a few sensible runs to get to know the car, if I can keep my sensible head on and not get carried away.
I may need to book it in for a couple of tweaks too. I'll pop in for a chat about it sometime.

[dannyboy]

cool , keep your sensible head on or i will be well in your rear view mirror
ive booked good weather so should be ok

[dannyboy]

last call

[dannyboy]

great day good to meet you steve and man that thing goes
managed a pb on my first ever run in the car of 13.09 at 105mph with a 2.1 sec 60ft so very pleased then went on to miss second a few times last run ran a 13.04 at 105.5 so a bloody good day had by me  i was using a very worn set of tires i had fitted after one of  my slicks blew up on the dyno on friday so could not get any traction but had a blast

Congratulations! Reminds me of my first outing in my car at Shakey!
Once the 60 foots are there you will be running mid to low 12's easy. Any pics?

Congrats Dannyboy!

[Steve G]

Had a great day yesterday.
5 runs, started with a gentle half pass to check things out, got quicker and faster each time.
11.77 at 122.77mph was the result. As you said Danny this thing goes!
I need to get used to the car as my gear changes were crap, two weeks time you say... maybe see you there.

[Jim Smith]

well done steve too! Give me a bell if you want to pop in for a chat?

[dannyboy]

got some slicks for the 16th so hopefully get into the 12s  i cant belive the difference in driving my old looker with the 120 cam and a lighter racecar with a fk87 and bigger cr the thing just wants to rev and pull
