Performance Box Runs - Best Times

I'm slowly building up a database of performance times using my box of tricks which is accurate to 0.01 of a second. Where possible I try and run the times over a perfectly flat piece of asphalt that's in good condition.

The best results to date are:

0-60: 6.3 seconds (BRMCooper)
0-100: 14.5 seconds (BRMCooper)
30-70: 4.5 seconds (1320)
50-70: 2.6 seconds (Snowie & 1320)
AccelerativeG: 0.587 (1320)
60ft: 2.8 seconds (BigShow)
1320ft: 14.8 seconds (BRMCooper)
1320mph: 101.9 mph (Snowie)
30-70 (3rd gear): 5.1 seconds (Snowie)

Looking forward to measuring some more times next year... but if you think you can beat the above times, step forward and be counted

Thanks for this - very interesting

If only I could have hooked up better and had less wheel spin. I need to practice more.

We said the car went well on the road.

Is the one I share with Paul in my car or is it mine and Pauls lightweight machine?

Erm Paul your 30-70 got quite close! I think we need some of the big hitters stepping forward, are there no BBR275 or GTT260 cars that want to have a go??

You sure that 30-70 wasn't through the gears, I dont remember seeing that 5.1 I saw a few 5.2s.

MMM -- I see I have lost a few spots here - I need to get off the line quicker

Paul has the big advantage of being able to regularly fettle the little beast and see what works whereas my GP has not moved off the drive since the SRR day.

Well done Paul

If I 'd known it was going to be neglected like that I would of come back for it and taken it on holiday and improved its times

Neglection is as a result of me not being at home to drive the beast or get it sorted for a custom remap!!

Too many things to do from a work perspective and organising moving to Italy

Now found myself a nice New (14Kms on the clock) LHD which I am in the process of Importing from Sweden and then it will be exported to Italy in April next year. The toy box is soon full
