Dragstrips don't have enough corners for my tastes. Trackday all the way (but not Bedford for aforementioned "noise nazi" reasons)

We can disconnect your steering rack if you like

I'd go to either. What sort of timescale are we looking at as I'm in the hunt for a new car at the moment. Current fabia vrs of doom will fall off at the first corner of a track and will fail at dragstrip as I won't be able to accelerate "IN GEAR LOLOLZ"

couple of lads at work have spent fortunes on their drag cars and had to text them your quote, you dont want to know their response.

My mate Stuarts mini

I could enjoy a dragstrip day, would be able to go all out, which I wouldn't do on a trackday.

Sparky · 31 Jul 2009 at 20:58

I will ask him , gimme 2 secs

Sparky · 31 Jul 2009 at 21:01

It ran 11.2 ! Just waiting to find out the terminal speed.

ScoobyDoo69 · 31 Jul 2009 at 21:03

Wowsers..

Sparky · 31 Jul 2009 at 21:03

Well think about it this way. He reached 132mph in 11.2 seconds.

My Scooby reached 103mph in 12.9sec.. and my car isn't slow!

Sparky · 31 Jul 2009 at 21:07

He has a very sorted RS turbo engine in the back and also quite a few CF mods to reduce weight.
