Congrats to Alski and Damo

[Paul@1320]

Outstanding results from your cars and combinations.

Its defintley the most we've seen from a stock head / stock manifold combo, the question remaining is why, So if you would both like to pop back so we can strip your cars down in the name of reserch

Its hard to explain to people the low and highs off drag racing but I think a lot off people now know what emotions you go through and how important a piece off paper and some numbers are

I was surprised at what Damo's got on the RR. Cos he hasn't even got a re-map. But, it just goes to show that some are quick cars from the factory & I think it helps with the kind of driving that the car is doing and even the driving style may even help!

[Paul@1320]

I was surprised but not that surprised to be honest. I believe the owners were more surprised and just shows how sometimes you can make very good horsepower with a stock head.

Alskii needs to work on his power below 3500rpm otherwise he'll get his ass kicked by a BRG Mini if there ever is a race invented which sets a limit to 3500rpm

[Damo]

Only thing got me thinking was we had the same whp but his drivetrain loss was more Can't be the wheels as his where lighter than mine!

Oh yeah, forgot to say who 'tuned' my car...

...well the GRS badges only lack the "Motorsport" part

Don't know whether to thank Graham or give him commiserations. Going to alter my other post to add the cost of my mods.

mostly similar bits and bobs to his but i still run std injectors....
