RaceDynamix get 3rd place at MLR 30-130 day at Marham

Had the 30-130 day at Marham yesterday and my targets for the day were to hit 180mph on the top speed run and to improve on last year’s 12.6 seconds for the 30-130.

I managed 180.72mph on the 1.5 mph runway. Very scarey with a cross wind at that speed with no rear spoiler.

As far as the 30-130 time goes I was 11.2 on the first run… but lots more to be had, then I upped the boost and got down to 10.7 for a few runs then discovered I still had a boot full of bits !! LOL So them removed and I dropped to 10.14…. then 10.08… argh !!!

So. would it do less than 10 ?

I was determined to make it so had another couple of runs on the bounce.  First one lit all four wheels building left foot braking to build 1.5 bar in second before lifting the brakes and shooting off down the runway. Back to the holding area to start another run with hot tyres.  The start felt awesome and I did not lift the throttle until I hit 140+ – this had to be the one.

I headed back to the MLR caravan and saw amazed that I had done 9.93 on the previous run

I waited for this time and it was 9.38 !!!

This gave me third fastest on the day out of 34 and I am WELL chuffed with that given the cars I was up against.

Awesome day and big thanks to the MLR for organising it and for the normal subaru team spirit.  Well done all other scoobies and especially to Clive for winning.  Well done.

598.3 BHP on the dyno

Scoobycity held it’s annual dyno day on saturday at Clive Atthowes in Norwich and I ran the car on the rollers.

I was very pleased with the result of 598.3bhp – hopefully with a bit of time on the dyno I can top the 600bhp mark

Snetterton Track Test – BC Coilover review

Well, first time on track with the BC ER Series coilovers today at snetterton in the wet.  Although they have not been properly aligned yet I have set them up to visually replicate what was there before – way off being finished though but it doesnt tramline or pull either way so cant be a million miles out.  The ER Series are the external reservoir set up and I have uprated the springs to 10kg front and 8kg rear to use this as a baseline for future changes.

BC ER Series Coilovers

Previous suspension set up worked well but was always under-sprung bearing in mind the downforce I am now running and the power.  BChave been very helpful in providing excellent support during the set up process and I am pleased to have their support during Time Attack 2010.

I have played with the set up of these on the road and got them to what I thought was a good compromise set up for general road use and track work in particular. Today I managed to spend some time at Snetterton testing them and spent some time setting them up to provide a good predictable ride in the wet.

I was running T1R road tyres and normal fuel on low boost so not out for lap records but to get a feel for the composure over kerbs, on turn in, mid corner, exits etc to see where I go from here.

Unreserved judgement is that I am impressed – still. They work great and very smooth and controlled in the wet. I will reserve judgement for the dry until I have tested under those conditions but from what I have seen so far the extra stiffness of the set up is helping stability in braking as well as reducing weight transfer during turn in so it feels more planted than it did with the ex-tc in the wet. Riding the newly raised kerbs in the wet was a test to see how settled the car is on return to black tarmac. My passengers for the day seemed very impressed with the predictability of it.

No drama today but no lap records – some ten + seconds off the TA times but you would expect that in the wet. Mind you quite impressed with the T1R’s in the fully wet too.

I am very excited about a dry track test next month on 888’s to see whether this revelation continues.

More coming soon….
