M45 Supercharged world record set -13.0959

It’s taken us most of this year to take this title from Isellem who frequents the MINI COOPER :: North American Motoring board, but we’ve finally done it with this run at the Easter Thunderball at Santa Pod Raceway.

60ft 1.8790
330ft 5.4169
660ft 8.3818
Mph 83.53
1000ft 10.8589
1320ft 13.0959
Mph 104.20

We also ran a 13.13 and 13.18, all this was acheived on Tescos 99.

Unfortunatley, we didn’t manage to get the mph record set at 105.5 mph by Isellem, though this will be our goal over the next few weeks to extract more power so we can hopefully be first in the 12s and go 106mph+

I’m sure we won’t hold on to the record for long, as I know Isellem will want it back! Also, there are a few other tuners who frequent this board who’ll now be working to get their hands on it too.

The nice thing about this is all our customers will benefit as we find new power levels and keep re-establishing the records as the 1320autos One S is fully street legal and although a demon on the strip is a monster on the road.

The good thing about drag racing is that we can prove how much horsepower we really have in the real world, and also we can compete with like minded people across the world because 1320 feet of tarmac is the same here as it is in any other country.

So if you fancy a custom package, have some bits you want fitting, would like to discuss
options for gaining hp or would like to know what the 250+bhp/ 220whp 1320autos car feels like please feel free to contact us – it won’t be for a few weeks as it’s getting a roll cage fitted as we have to fit one to go faster than 11.99 in competition .

First M45 Cooper S to run a 12 (12.96@105)
On Nitrous 11.16@123 0-100 7.1991
