1000+bhp skylines doing 11's :| pull the other one!

440AWHP on ours was enough to get the fastest time at the last event :lol:

440 awhp = what fwbhp = what 1/4m time ? and is that a striped out race car (r32)?

you do need big/huge power to get them lumps over the line in 10secs im no carin what you say !

Well I had a great day Mercedes 9, BMW's 0, best time 14.611 and 97.2mph, even better I work with my mate Grant so now the whole work can slag him.

Good to catch up with everyone, my kids had a ball and I should thank Mandy for letting me abuse her car.

just short of 570 bhp at the fly.... but thats a guestimate isnt it. WHP is the real deal. The car weighs over 1300kg but it is stripped out on VERY firm suspension setup for track work. R888's etc. In no way ideal or designed for a 1/4mile blast.

At the last Impreza vs Skyline day it did a 11.02 at 131mph with a 1.6 60ft. 8000rpm launch LOL - a baw hair away from a 10, same as the black 2 door Impreza really. A 10 would have been on if the day didnt end - less fuel etc etc

Half the skylines you see running are NOT the power they state, or are just generally eased off the line.

Great day out, excellent turnout from the sidc. Nice to see lots of new faces.

Colin and Chris stunning cars guys, made everything else there look slow.

Fastest on the day (N/A up to 2l) was me, Woop woop, when do I get my trophy? ;)

I was faster than a few scoobies :lol: Im away to the Salon to do some hair

So you are saying their owners over estimate! :lol:

either that, or the dynos are a bit optimistic LOL or they have too much ****e/ICE, leather, bling bling Rimz etc LOL

What power and weight were you running for your 11.08 at 132.

It could just be down to drivers though.. as there is no logical reason a GTR (be in 32/33 or 34) should be slower than a similar power/weight Impreza.

Hmmm never had it rr but it was 2 bar with a GT3040 2.5L with head work.

Near full weight blob eye minus seats and boot gear. :lol:

How did the orange AWD scooby get on?

The launch was good with the AWD car as I could not get the power down launch control was not playing, after that all I seen was an orange dot in my rear view mirror :D

Hi all Nice cars lads playsatan and braveheart scoobys were really good and were fast all day with some very good times done by both cars i think chris was fastest car on day beating all including the skylines so scoobys won ;)

Its the other way around mate AWD built this car for a customer from glasgow but i bought it back from him in march 2010 so was out at crail to get a feel for the car and to see what it could do up the strip, its a track car for knockhill but i still had a good day blasting up the strip with it at crail ....Got a lot more mods to do to it yet its only running a TDO5-20G just now.....400bhp or there abouts ..........

Race with chris was good the car sounds great no much in it he just pasted me and no more by the end only about half a second in it very close that time. but was beat by better car on the day hats of to you lads and SW Motorsport for a very nice Built car...very fast and still got more to go i here.

I'm going up to Banzai day this month to play again so see ya there if you make it lads cheers grant
