Round 1 PSDS
 
As some of you know ive entered this again this year and it was the first round Sunday, i got there nice and early but had problems with the car with heat.... 94 at track level

A few pics

Lining up with a good friends Skyline

As said the car wasnt playing game and the launch control decided to jam on, after 6 runs i just couldnt do any decent times, problem wasnt helped by the fact i kept on selecting 6th instead of 4th... crossed the line at 89mph lol

The last run i let the car roll and then launched... wasted some time but got off the line clean and did a 13 dead, most weekends i would have been disapointed but as i never broke out of the 13-14sec class i won it.

So 10 points and a trophy to celebrate a annoying weekend :)

What you bought to help underbonnet temps? :drive:

That would be telling lol

Good times - I've got a portable A/C unit for home I don't need - how about running it through the car like on the F1 grids with the heaters but in reverse!

ralliart didz 21-04-2011 03:12 PM

is your new bonnet vent part of the blame 2 the cooling,compaired 2 the factory 1

Anger 21-04-2011 04:12 PM

Im not sure... the problem with drag is keeping the oil warm and under bonnet temps down, having a bonnet vent wouldnt help this when the car is sitting still and is not near the air filter, plenty of other cars running fine without bonnet scoops

Well done mate :-)

On the heat side it might not be any help but have you thought about a co2 kit to keep things chilli?
