For sure, Mark is very good.... one thing i was thinking about the other day is someone told me you have no super unleaded in Ireland... is that true and if so are you mapping yours for 95?:)

Thats true if you live in the republic I think?

In the North, We have various 97, my local is BP ultimate so we are mapping on that.
Strangely enough all super unleaded pumps here are BP ultimate. Reason is there is only one high octane tank in Belfast Docks, and all companies share it, being owned by BP.

Mind you i'll have a couple of bottles of Millers CVL in each tank.

I think Mark said it should be around 1100-1300 I can't remember properly now, but I don't think the BHP is what they bother about really.

The car runs about 1150 / 1200 bhp on full boost 3 bar

I got banned from the gtroc but if any of you want to read about my car i have my own forum and website.

Great motor Keith.

Now for the obvious question, why did you get banned?

Why did you get banned?

Also, isn't 8 secs a bit slow compared to those US Supras?;)

Keith are you still going to have a crack at that 0-300 km/h record???

I was talking to Mark (Cordy) about that and he said you were going to have a do at it, but that was last year. Is that still on the cards?

I am guessing a mixture of you were took quick and a tad of jealousy from other members got you put out.
Car clubs sometimes attract dreamers who just can face that fact their car is a gutless wonder, and spend their time bitching.

Good luck Keith, well done on a brillaint time, I'll be watching your future success with gladness! :d

Sounds about right, I believe they had a moan when he won TOTB 2 years back, as they felt it wasn't a road car.
It has an MOT doesn't it, so it is road legal (although very unpractical ;) )

Some of the above is true,but the main problem was that my tuner would not pay for a banner as he does not need one and he never goes on there forum, i was told that if i wanted to post i had to pay so much per month lol.

JamieP

I will be going for the 0-300 record at totb the record for a 4wd car is 13.1 seconds held by Veilside hope to take a good bit of time off it.

Ok thats a tad on the quick side. Commentator was hardly charismatic though lol. What was last years TOTB winning time? Surely this time is quicker than that?
