We finally done it today and broke into the 11s at the Euro Finals at Santa Pod:nice and claimed our No 2 position back from Fireballed Brian with the Black Widow Mini.

60ft 1.7993
330ft 4.9689
1/8 7.5812
mph 93.35
1000ft 9.7762
1/4 11.7722
mph 115.93

I like the fact that it goes 0-93 in 7.6 secs

The worlds quickest street Mini title comes back to the UK:biggrin:

Well, that is quick and fast! Bet the US boys will be pedling harder now!;)
Congratulations!

Well done its what i was hoping you would go at the MITP. Im guessing thats with the nitrous on the M45 charger? I guess its got to be turbo next to go quicker Paul, bring it on :D

p.s tried to call you to congratulate you an have a bit of a chat

Yup we were hoping too:hmph:,we've modified some stock shafts and at the moment there holding up:nice:

We'll give it a do or die launch on Sat afternoon as thatwill be our first round and in theory I shouldn't go through as its a 10.90 class unless of course I run a 10.90:aargh::biggrin:

Give us a bell tomorrow we only down for 2 runs as its all the Pro classes running.

Well done Paul. Guess you didnt go with the monster built drive shafts yet then.

How were your times on the day without the nitrous?

Good effort!

There's quick and then there's quick.

You are now very quick:cool:

S:yeblack:

great work guys

Well done Paul. Guess you didnt go with the monster built drive shafts yet then.

At these events you dont get enough runs to do non nitrous runs, I'm being gentle with it off the lineto try and save the shafts,though sat afternoon it'll be getting hell:biggrin:

phew thats quick:D

You'll know what's like soon:biggrin:

hope so should be good fun on track days:D

Congratulations paul!!! :D You've worked hard to get there!

So what time frame will the next target be for the turbo mini cooper s?

Will do mate, please run a 10.90 as thats perfect amo for winding my mate up with the mr2 up down the pub lol

.....he dont do corners (yet:D). Yes an impressive time guys. :cool:Do you still use stock pistons & conrods on this beast?
Best Regards Roland GTT:smile:

Stock rods but with Fireballed JE Pistons.

So whats keeping you awake:biggrin:

amzing work mate! how much n2o are you spraying?? have you got any dyno graphs of the car when you gt on the gas?? also, i can see it really helping with the cooling if sprayed after the IC.

have you done any other drivetrain mods to get a better launch? is this run on drag slicks or street tyres??

sorry for all the questions,

Chris.

Its hard to control it on the dyno with nitrous even with our controller which is probably thebest one out there at the moment.

Its sprayed after the IC.

We're running a Clutch Masters twin plate clutch which is man enough to hold the torque, we also run a quaife diff as wel as Toyo slicks, we havejust modified the driveshaftsto cope with the extra power.

Never be sorry about aslking questions.:biggrin:

Paul, how have you modified the drive shafts to prevent a possible 'Loui' with that power?

it was the engine mount that caused mine

Awesome time ,thats faster than a Ferrari F40!!

Think Pauls got some sorted if he needs them :D

Thanks Jan for developing the best clutch on the market:D

No problem Paul!!!!:biggrin:

Poxy driveshafts / axles snapped on the first run of the day.

Next time you develop a clutch Kuhmo Kid can you make sure it doesn't break axles / shafts as well.

Time to get the chrome moly out:biggrin:

well,
If you would have bothered calling me instead of buying the clutch the way you did you wouldn't have that problem of breaking the axles. I would have set you up with the ceramic as it gives just enough to save the axles at your hp level:hmph:

excellent!

The clutchmaster stage 3 is brilliant on the street, but for drag use, as Jan said, it would be best to use the ceramic twin plate or the stage 4 to just allow a smidgen of slip thereby saving engine mounts, axles etc :)

Cheers,

Henry
