I dunno if this counts.. but I did from 70-110 mph in 4 seconds... but this was in my previous set up before the front mount...

I'll get out and check the 30 - 70 ASAP..

I wonder what this cars 30-70 time would be.
This car sounds amazing.

Sounds good I want my table position

Hyper Active · Nov 27th, 2007, 05:20 PM

Here's some updated from me, from worst to best all with a stop watch

.

7.52
7.39
7.30
7.17

These give me an average time of 7.345 seconds.

roland2003 · Nov 27th, 2007, 05:30 PM

Just took another GTT220 (+GTT Re-route) out for 30-70 in third gear ,that was in for a service today. This is a high geared early car with very tall large outside diameter tyres.
5.7 Average.

Not bad ..and no weight removal either!

Impressive Roland, did you use the gtech for this? Just shows that my high geared car needs to lose some weight... or its driver does... dust for tea again

roland2003 · Nov 27th, 2007, 05:35 PM

How much does 1320s car weigh compared to the other cars here.? Someone said it was 200kg lighter ., even 100kg is a fair bit of advantage. I think you should mark which are early and which are late gearing cars too ,to give a better picture.

No stopwatch, its quite cool out there now too.

But then it gets a bit silly as I could be running on fumes and get a quicker time than someone with more power but a full tank or my lightweight wheels (when they turn up) could be seen as an advantage. Removing weight from the car IMO is just as important as adding power... the benefit is its free... if it helps I can put the bhp next to the figures I measure??

Plus I weigh 155kg (or two BRMCoopers) so I'm at a disadvantage from the get go!

Revolution Mini Works · Nov 27th, 2007, 05:41 PM

why don't all of you show up on the track on the 15th and see who has the power?

good grief this is like a bunch of hens

roland2003 · Nov 27th, 2007, 06:12 PM

Not at all. Yes there are many variables but a fully gutted car is more difference than half a tank of fuel. Its your thread . At least make the point that the weight and different gearing have a significant effect.
Our Mini is always the quickest Mini on the race track Jan ...even when it was a mere 270bhp.

Weight is the enemy ..I'd agree with that

well, our full bodied car beat a turbo car with much more hp and less weight... go figure

expect competition ..... it's coming

BigShow · Nov 27th, 2007, 06:24 PM

True, a fully gutted car will make a difference but not as much as adding a bloomin great turbo! lol. Whats the setup on your car Roland, just wondering what you'd be bringing to Bedford if you can make it??

roland2003 · Nov 27th, 2007, 06:41 PM

But you havnt added Lees 'turbo' time to your 30-70 list. and if you did I would fully expect it to be marked 'Turbo'. I could strip a GTT220 car right out, use late gearbox,low fuel, 50psi in the small diameter tyres and probably equal 1320's time. What Im saying is these differences could easily change the running order. I know its not 'serious' but you might as well make it as best you can.
Jan....we dont use the large turbos you use over there. tbh I too would expect a GT3071 or GT3076 to be not very good on a track. Lees car gave 300lb ft torque.

GT4 Baz · Nov 27th, 2007, 06:45 PM

RMW, are you going to be in the UK for the 15th?
