Terminal speed, target 100mph. Entry Rules.

[shortcircuit]

model - turbo II (JDM) 1991

Didnt spot this so i will add my car :-

H Reg TII
106K On the clock
Dodgy Clutch
Play in Turbo
Blitz Induction Kit
Main Cat and Pre Cat Removed
FCD
Blitz BOV
Not sure if to run with the SAFCII or the Blitz MFCS yet

RSI - i got a 15.03 @ 91mph ( althought the fastest speed was 93.xx .. )

Just to spice things up a bit I have run a 14.5 1/4 at 98 mph in a stock engined FC Cabriolet about 4 or 5 years ago.
The only mods were a complete racing beat exhaust and a pretty serious launch.No ECU\'s,No porting,no water injection.The engine had done 50,000 miles.
My Brother ran a 14.4 on the same day in the same car with a 93 mph terminal.
Now the really interesting things is that my Bro weighed 20 stone at the time,and I was 15 stone.
Make of that what you will,but it shows that it should be possible with minimal mods to achieve the 100 mph terminal at RS3.
Hopefully this will encourage a few.
Regards
Carl

gives us food for thought

[sadgoth]

humph! I\'m not allowed to play in this game :-( as according to the rules my car is too far from stock! Please let me play, I\'m rubbish at starts

mods:
stripped interior
1/2 bridgeport
FMIC
Microtech LT10s ECU
decat + SS 2.5" exhaust
Koni adjustables + Pi springs

at RSII I ran a 15.4 at 92mph on stock ECU and stock IC (as the turbo is still stock, I don\'t see me improving too much on that!)

[Kaptainbalistik]

I\'ll play.
Std Series 5 atmo
Slipping clutch (Ill fix it when it is above -5 outside!).
FACTORY Exhaust (And airpump pipe!)
Does wanky Mudflaps ,Rear Konis and a Sparco steering wheel count me out?

[grinder]

the cars being built on a tight budget by me and a few mates from work
i work in the tool room and the other guys are coded welders welding stainless and ali so we should be getting it done for sod all apart from gaskets seals ecu and injectors, weve got everything else
ive got a bit of a challenge on buy a guy that works with me who runs in the wild bunch with a proper space frame dragster and 3 speed box shift break and tranny module, chevvy at 350 hp but all last season best run was 10.8 at 120mph which to me is pretty ****e for a proper dragster compared to some jap machines knocking about nowadays.
were having a race at shakespear in march for the crack anyway
1990 rotary against purpose built dragster that cost 15k to build!"
the fc stands us at 1500 quid with big front mount, fd diff and t51r turbo but with blown engine!
im getting a wideband sensor so we can have a go at mapping  ourselves :Hammer

[grinder]

MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmm FMIC

[stuart wizy]

to me the rotary is unreal for power yet so cheap! specialy buying from the states huge front mounts for 150 quid t45 ball bearing turbos 500 quid!
no wonder theres so many super quick fcs and fds in the states
you can pick fcs up now for under 500 quid, do a bit of welding buy huge turbo front mount fuel setup ecu, and see off mega expensive macinery :Thumbs-up
