Here's one for you Carl : 13.573 @ 103.2 mph

Dave_3 · 03-22-2009, 03:07 PM

In a MKII Escort Mexico

Martin just finished rebuilding his Harris 2.0 Pinto (was in bits last time I passed by). Not bad from the old car.

Need to get mine out for a run sometime. Just a big schlep to get to any raceway ~300 mile round trip.

Serjames · 03-22-2009, 03:15 PM

what power is that thing putting down ? those are really impressive times ? I know it's light, but WOW That's like 400bhp quick !

dxb335d · 03-22-2009, 03:17 PM

Looks lovely mate. Must be knocking well over 250bhp to run that.

Awesome.

LOL Mate

it weighs well under a ton mate. Its doign 103mph also.

A 345bhp saff cossie's can run 12.6@110 mate

Dave_3 · 03-22-2009, 03:25 PM

I'm not sure about the exact power in its present home ... but approx 205+ BHP (using a Ron Harris built Race Pinto running 48 Webers, forged pistons), with LSD and sticky semi-race Yokahama tyres.

Another of our members (Sharkey) is creating a N/A Cosworth, shown below ... so should be a bit of competition on the track between the two at events this year.

dxb335d · 03-22-2009, 03:28 PM

I dont think 205bhp will get you over 100mph trap and also no where near 13.5,

thats packing pony.

Dave_3 · 03-22-2009, 03:38 PM

Remember it is light and he is running a race/rally diff

At least 4.33:1 - an Aerial Atom only puts out about 245BHP and that thing rips your face off

Just heard he was beating the Subarus and an RX8 and an RS4.

All I did today was wax the car ... sigh. In the wrong country this weekend.

D.

dxb335d · 03-22-2009, 03:41 PM

Id expect it to rip normal subarus all day long. They were running 14's today at the pod.
Now the RS4 is a good kill. I want to rip up one of them.

marriedblonde · 03-22-2009, 04:00 PM

Just out of interest what will a standard 330 coupe run? Petrol that is not denzel.

J.

dxb335d · 03-22-2009, 04:16 PM

Mid 14's at about 96-98mph.
You could have just asked for 330i... saved all the explanation

Dave_3 · 04-14-2009, 04:29 AM

And the proof ....

M3-FAST · 04-14-2009, 05:53 AM

WOW, impessive stuff, the engine sounds lovely

booforty · 04-14-2009, 06:15 AM

Sod the DXB, get a cossie Carl!

MOB · 04-14-2009, 06:43 AM

I like the way that Crail lists all of your times on one list - better than the Pod's crappy system
