Would it be ok to send that link to the guys I race with?

Of course.

Here‘s another one of you. Only using my phone so not very good quality! We didn’t have Jonny there this year to get decent pics of fast moving race cars!

Good luck

Back at Santa Pod on Monday. Now having full throttle helped!

That car just looks and sounds absolutely fantastic!

I think you need to work on either timing or fuel off the line as costing the bog off the launch
Also, can see reaction time costing
Maybe launch with higher RPMs & adjust tires pressures

With good launch, could see more like a low to mid 12 second E.T

I wasn’t worried about the RT.

That 60’ is just a function of the tyres and diff ratio, any more throttle and I spin them. It’s not designed to to standing starts.

This run was slightly more revs and it just lit the tyres View my video at Gas Bash 2024 - oneball

They’re a very different tyre to the drag ones. I reckon you’re right a decent drag slick and it get down to 12.5s or less.

Just an FYI

Couple of things I do for drag racing is

1. Remove the bolts to arms of front swaybar, that then allows the front end to lift even higher shifting the weight over to back tires
for better traction, allowing higher launch RPMs used

2, Rig up the parking brake handle so it cannot latch. This way can hold handle up and that locks rear wheels from turning
thus allows loading and torquing drivetrain up to rear wheels

Using higher RPMs, and to launch simple release brake handle

Sure are some ` hot wheels ` there !

Owww.... is this my claim to fame? Helping you go faster with my post about my carb not going full throttle that you replied on?

"CK - making blue C3s go faster"

Yep it is. Might be faster at Oulton Park too.

Last race of the year was at Oulton last weekend. Gained about 6 secs from last year, need another 6 really. But have identified a couple of issues with suspension and brakes to work on over the winter.

What are you going to do with the brakes?

Just fitting an adjustable bias valve as I’m locking the rears up.
