It that just for rotor stock? As most sundays are 3 runs then you jump to the front and buy another 3 runs?!
Re: Rotorstock 9-10/08/08
Anyone manage to get to this?
Any times?

Re: Rotorstock 9-10/08/08
i got there....
best run was a 10.6@ 142.8 the 60ft was 2.1!!!!!!!!!
Then i bogged, then i got 2 perfect launches 1.6 60ft but the clutch gave up the ghost 
Car was insanely quick- if i had hooked up a 1.6 60ft on my 10.6 run that would have been 9.8 (easily)
Next time!

Your terminals are massive bud! especially with a slipping clutch!

I was planning on getting there, but was told it was limited to 3runs, although now ive heard it was unlimited

Re: Rotorstock 9-10/08/08
it was very quite there today, the longest i queued for was 20mins.... i could have had 10 runs today if i wanted.
Yeah the clutch played up at totb- it was biting hard at first but then 3rd & 4th was terrible slip.
The last run was a 10.7@ 132... 3rd & 4th were hopeless - such a shame as the 60ft was 1.6!
Im positive because after quite alot of work we have got the launches really good, it hooks up so hard off the line it feels like the wheels are off the ground.

Re: Rotorstock 9-10/08/08
The early runs the clutch was solid - but the launches were bad... i think it was a heat issue with the clutch because when the launches were hard the clutch then couldn't take any more after.
I should have been easy into the 9's that day and with a 20mph head wind too. It just proof that you have to have everything going bang on for you, i cant believe how difficult its become to launch at this power - before it was fairly easy but now you have a 500rpm window to sort it, either side of that window will loose you 4tenths on the 60ft.
Roy- im looking into doing the october HKS event, i'll pm you about the regs for the car.
Regards,
Nathan
