I heard it was 55mph all the way! Slipstreaming trucks & Fuel economy for the win!

lmfao

Me westy and sam left the rest of the pack at the services, Sam wasnt going slowly either

. I still cant belive how lucky we were and how we managed to somehow slow to 85 from "other speeds" to pass a policeman with his speed gun. **** me up when i saw about 15 police bikes passing on the other side of the carriageway coming off to rejoin our side :\ Think that was when sam took us off the next exit for a bit of a B road blast

Going to be great for setting fire to peoples ankles round town though...bit fuel-rich at the exhaust

Bit of a n00b question from me, which will probably result in me getting laughed at (even moreso than I do already

)...

The RR result... is that ATW or ATF? Do they take the ATW figure and then the computer calculates that figure against the drivetrain losses? How accurate is this?

They take the atw figure, and then calculate the drivetrain losses on overrun i think...

The dyno print out shows both atw and atf figures

saitrix · 25 May 2006 at 07:23

Though the ATW is the only accurate one.

agw_01 · 25 May 2006 at 08:38

Ah cool guys.

I'm hoping for 140bhp ATF you see... don't want to be disappointed

At the wheels is the useful BHP! Im hoping for as close to 200 ATW as I can get!

Here come the runner excuses eh sam

Watch that list over 20+ runners drop to 7 confirmed by 30th June!

It never changes mate, ive already discussed the current list of runners with a coupleof people, and theres about 14 that I definately know will be there, the rest could well be a bit of a lottery !!!

obviously I want everyone to turn up, but in reality I need to realised that the polarisation of the earth is about to change and that some of the cars will vanish into the ether.... or whatever...

Eidolon definately wins most committed, I think he had to go searching for battery terminal bits on THE DAY of the RR event to make sure he could make it !
