Bray Hill Sprint

[ASTiMAN]

Keeping the Subaru name alive, I won class 3C Road Saloon & Production Cars over 2000cc in the hill climb on Friday night. 1 km (0.62 miles) standing start back up the TT course.

My time (Type R V5 2.33 SMG) 25.07 secs

2nd in class Porsche 911 C4 25.82 secs

3rd in class Porsche Carrera S 26.28 secs

4th in class Porsche 911 GT3 RS 26.33 secs

7th was a very nicely Norris prepped Nisan Sunny GTiR (410bhp)at 27.05 secs

My resuly was 4th overall and just to put it into context here is the machinery that beat me:

Chevron B25 F2 24.57 secs

Chevrolet Camero Z28 24.80 secs

Caterham R500 24.85 secs

And I beat a westfield Megabusa (25.86 secs)!

Result would have been better if I had a bit more gearing and the TD05/06 20G was able to breath better.

A big thanks to Steve Guirey for the build and Pat for mapping.

Bigger turbo time me thinks to get the best from the engine!

Kind regards

Spot on,

 Heard you where going well,

 

Tried to watch, but came down late and could not get to within 10feet anywhere.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So went and had a play on the mountain instead

Forgot to add, if anyone has photos or video footage, especially from the start, please let me know. I have a little video footage and some photos of empty roads as Sarah couldn't work the camera!

PS is anyone interested in buying a Garrett TD05/06 20g turbo, good for 400bhp on a 2 litre with not too laggy spool up?

Bah!  If only I hadn't spent all my bonus already.  Not sure how easy it'd be to fit to mine anyway as I need a 90 degree entry.

Excellent result Andrew.[]

See Paul did well to, walked into SCP the other day only to find almost every trophy from the event on the reception desk!

20g must resist, don't need it............

Still hunting for video/pictures. Surely somebody must know somebody with start line footage/pics??
