I took my Blade Master to the track on the weekend. Even with a lack of traction and traction control killing my power I ran mid 14s @ 96mph. Didn't even try to launch, just foot off brake then onto gas when the last amber lit.

They both run 12s :lol:


What I've witnessed

450hp scoobies doing mid/high 12s
350hp scoobies low 13s
450hp r32 gtrs doing very low 13s
Bolt on 350-400 HP r34 gtrs low 14s!
Bolt on steel turbo r33s high 13s
500hp supra very high 12s running drag radials.
400-450hp gt4s running low 13s (gt30 turbos).


This is why I jest that the B in BHP stands for bullshit. The whole coasting down to calculate tran losses gives you laughable results like above.

Not a huge change.

But am back in business with terminals in the 113/114s mph range!
So happy with that.

Just struggling off the line quite bad. Haven't managed anything below 2.0 60fts today.
Lots of stop starts, bit of rain.
Track cold.

Overall happy to have my terminal speeds back though.
And every pass so far is in the 12s.

Good terminal speed Jim, got called into work which sucked, what's next then plan to get the 60ft down? Weight loss?

That's a shame. I assumed something popped up.
Next time.

:-)


I bagged another 12.6 pass in the end even with a slow 2.0 60ft. Pretty happy with that!!

10 passes made all in the 12.6-12.8 range.

Happy with the consistency, just couldnt drop my 60ft in the 1.8 or 1.9 area again this time around otherwise another PB should have been on the cards today.
Annoying but pretty happy with the times and car given the slower launchs.
Still potential for sure even with a 20b!

and still embarrassing more powerful and more modern cars!

Wow 12.6 with a 2.0 60ft!

With a 1.8 60ft that is 12.2 :shock:
