330bhp 11.772 @ 115.93

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

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

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

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?

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

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.

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