Hey Don, well without fully knowing how much boost and what sized slicks you might be running:D  I will be the first to have a wild stab in the dark and guess at a 12.9 at roughly.......ummmmm....109mph. Is there a prise for the person who guesses closest to the mark?:rollin

[rotorhead666]

maybe knock half a second off..?

[travellinbob]

C\'mon people, there have been alot of us following closely the story of Dons car. Maybe the person who gets the closest to the time gets to be taken for a drive by the man himself!
 Rotorhead666 so you reckon it will pull a 12.4? Anyone else?

[MikeLMR]

I havn\'t a clue .... I think I guessed at a 13.somthing last time so I\'ll stick by that with a 13.5 estimate

Tim ran a 13.2 in an almost standard 12at....but we all know how he drives!

It will be interesting to find out.  Hope the gearbox is up to it.

Don\'t know what boost its running, but it does have water inj.

I may fit an intercooler too.  Just need rack & pinion steering & its done (apart from the paint).

13 seconds is a fast car.  I reckon 13.4ish, but who knows...

yes its much easier to make a standard engine go quickly if you know where your next rebuild is coming from

Yes, a 13 sec 1/4 is still a very quick car ... a standard 3rd gen is in the 14\'s and in standard form a 1st gen is probably in the 17\'s at best so 13 is a massive jump forward in performance.

Yes, a good 1/4 time is not that important to me, not to the extent of prematurely knackering my new engine.
