Posted 19/02/05 05:24 PM Share Posted 19/02/05 05:24 PM well tonight a few off the guys and I went to the drags we all had ishues with take offs I managed to run a 12.3 @121mph but the 60 foot time a bit slow 2.1 and now the clutch needs to be upgraded now<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Well done on the PB, Bruce. No doubt you're not very happy as I know how much you wanted an 11. Its a frustrating pastime. No doubt when you get the clutch sorted you'll be joining the 11 second club real soon.Regarding the MPH. I think the manuals have a different level of MPH/rwkw's than the autos. Your MPH is the same as Deano's and mine in the auto's but I think that the manuals need considerably more power to achieve the same MPH. Brians MPH would also help confirm this aswell as JB's. I think JB ran 13.3 with 270rwkw's where as in an auto 270rwkw's would get a 12.8ishMaybe we could start getting a data base of manaual power and MPH figures to get a sort of guide. There are a few more manuals getting down the strip now so it could be possible.Geea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
