fudge Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 Sorry about the delay, wet weekends or work played a part. All following times were achieved on level ground / in dry conditions / full tank of V Power / driver + passenger using a Lorus Digital stopwatch as accurately as possible. We completed 3 of each to supply us with an average. All 6 runs whilst timing 0 - 100 were launched at 3000 rpm (preserving clutch until upgrade later this year). My Launch Control is not enabled at moment. This will be enabled on next visit to Roger Clark Motorsport together with a shed load of other mods. 1st run. 0-100 mph Anti Lag OFF 11.34 2nd run 11.28 3rd run 11.29 1st run 0-100 mph Anti Lag ON (used in 1st only) 12.68 (my fault) got the start all wrong. It's difficult to make quick launch using A.Lag 2nd run 10.89 3rd run 10.96 1st attempt at 50- 70 mph (in 3rd gear) 2.86 2nd attempt 2.82 3rd attempt 2.82 1st attempt at 50-70 mph (in 4th gear) 3.61 2nd attempt 3.64 3rd attempt 3.65 I dare say I could have achieved slightly faster 0-100's launching at higher rpm, but I kept thinking of clutch & box. They are pretty much at limits at moment. 2009 we will have 180-200 more bhp - Launch Control - all new transmission (bomb proof) - double plated ceramic/orgainc? clutch - 6 speed box and various suspension mods (not known at this point). When the project is complete towards end of 2009 I will run the same tests again.
Nudge Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 Thats some good times, oh how id love a.l.s........what figs are you running at the moment then ?
granby Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 Was the car bogging down at 3000rpm as that seems a bit low 20withascooby was closest with 11.04 CLICKY
rodregos Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 Excellent times be interesting to see how she does when u have completed all your upgrades. well done

When the project is complete towards end of 2009 I will run the same tests again. I have not tried the 0-100 yet on mine,but when i last went down the drag strip i hit 96mph in 8.1sec,so i would say i hit 100mph in 8.5 that was at long marston drag strip in Stratford i think if i get the correct tyres i should hit it in 7 seconds.Thats what yours should get in 2009 cheers Marty
baser999 Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 what do i win You get to stand nearest the bar and get the drinks in when we all meet up - guess someone forgot to mention that when the competition was set lol

fudge Posted June 1, 2008 Author Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) Granby: no it was not bogging. Matt designed the complete engine to come in early. Turbo comes in around 3350 rpm. I tried one launch at 4300 rpm with anti lag enabled two weeks ago. It was a much faster launch, however the inside of my car stunk of burning clutch for the next 30 minutes. Stiggy : thanks for the im mate, however I could not get it to work when cutting & pasting?..send it again..cheers. Hi Marti: hows things with your beast?. I will be coming up to RCM sometime in Oct / Nov to leave my car with them. We shall have to meet up. Marti, before you had launch control fitted, did you try quick off's using A.Lag?, if yes, how did you find it?. It seems difficult to get it right but when you do the grip is insane. To get optimum use of anti lag when launching I find with mine that you need to increase rpm to around 6K then just when the rpm begins to fall, dump the clutch then floor the thing, then lift, then feather, feather, feather then floor it again? As you know yourself all what I have just described spans 3 seconds max, and that is why is is difficult to get it right every time. Launch Control is easier I bet Speak with you soon. Have fun.

fudge Posted June 1, 2008 Author Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) Hi Nudge.. Matt Clark (RCM) who built my engine, and Dave Rowe (Motec) who mapped it both estimated the engine at 420 -430 bhp at the moment. There is heaps more in the engine however I need many mods to the transmission and suspension before the engine comes back in "blokes mode" Edited June 1, 2008 by skullfudge
fudge Posted June 1, 2008 Author Posted June 1, 2008 20withascooby.....it does say rather clearly in my original 0-100mph thread that the winner does in fact buy the first round at the next meeting. Check it out. Cheers mate........... Fudge <- looking forward to the next meeting. Will be bringing everyone I know who owns a Scooby
fudge Posted June 1, 2008 Author Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) Stiggy .... I have often mentioned to you about the real quick P1 from up the midlands, and I mean real quick, well thats MartiP1 (scroll up). I believe he lives up near RCM. His car is truly awesome in all respects. ("proper blokes stuff") Edited June 2, 2008 by skullfudge
dazzlers82 Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 some good time fudge an im up near rcm this week may pop in an have a look around

Hi Skullfudge,cars running really well thanks,the re-map i had done last month really made a big difference ,car is harder to drive because dave rowe has pushed it as much as he can ,Olly thinks its running around 530-540bhp now. I tried a quick start before i had the launch control fitted and i had to drop the clutch at 6,000rpm ,any lower and it would just die on me, mainly as the turbo is not on full boost till about 4600rpm the O.S Giken clutch i have does not slip at all so thats also why it used to go off boost. Since fitting the launch control its much better ,i usually have it set on number 4 which is around 5,200rpm and 1 bar of boost ,Dave Rowe has programed anti lag with the launch control so once you start off it switches itself off. Its just there to help me on the launches on the drag strip. See you up RCM some time Cheers marty
