Hot 460 PB- BF 260 ute WSID

[Quadcams]

Just spoke to Rich he did a 13.092@104.51 1.967 60' on factory dunlop street tyres at WSID tonight also he said he was spinning the tyres past the 660'.
These BF 6speed autos are quiet impressive when he only has exaust,cai,tune. Be interesting what it could do with diff gears, stall and sticky tyres.


Also Chris (MYV8) was out running his ute managed another 12.97@106.

Well done to both of you guys.

Air temp was 8c 100%RH ABS 29.90 RA -684ft

Well done Rich so so close to a 12 seccond pass on the dunlops. About time some one had a crack with a Boss and a ZF.

[Craig]

Nice Rich real nice, the last time i saw you run there was stuff all over the racetrack, hope this didn't happen again. Well done mate love the results.

Cheers Craig

[MYV8]

Well done mate. I couldn't believe that last race!!! I expected you to be 1 - 2 car lengths behind, but you weren't in my mirror so I thought it must have cr@pped itself on the line. Got a real shock to see you beside me. LoL. .0045 difference over the line. When you get some good rubber I might have to consider putting the race tune in my car again. LoL
Pity about the track being so slippery though.

[Bluepower]

Top work Rich, and I must admit, very nice driving. You are a very hard man to keep off the blacktop lately!!

[xr8ute]

Awesome Rich. Thats moving bloody quick on Dunlop street tyres...

[hot460]

Took a long time to get my head around the dunlops! And a track like ice didn't help, heaps of cars that normally hook up just turning the tyres.
1st run 13.485 @ 103.69
2nd 13.357 @ 102.95
3rd 13.299 @ 103.27
4th 13.224 @ 103.45
Last run
13.093 @ 104.51
1.964 60ft on Dunlop sp 3000
5.536 330'
8.470 660'
82.67 mph
10.982 1000'
The car was turning the tyres alot all the way too the 660'. And I had no chance of being able too stall up on the line. Just had to ease into leaving the line.

A huge thanku to Chris (Bluepower) and Craig ( A.C.E ) for getting the car moving. Now we have to wait for some decent rubber. 17" unfortunatly.......
Thanks Chris (MYV8) for someone to race. :

[MYV8]

Best change your sig mate....albeit temporarily......

[F6BF]

Well done boys

[baboon]

Congratulations fellas.

[nugget378]

Well done Rich.:

[PhantomXR8]

Yeh, great work Rich. It appears the BF is more of a natural than the BA for the strip, in auto trim atleast. Your times kept tumbling, like you said, it makes sense to try and get a 12 with the Dunlops, it seems reachable.

[PhantomXR8]

I forgot to mention, onya Chris, seems too easy for you to get a 12 these days, keep up the good work mate!

Maybe next week. The boys from rocket said the 17"s will not be in for a couple of weeks atleast. Bugger......... :

When I get that 12n/a it will be time for the little blower! :

[rodderz]

Well done fellas

Great effort on stock rubber!

Lol Craig. I hope I dont have that problem again. Still waiting for the JW bellhousing from the US.
I was very surprised to heard your C/v let go on the street after the punishment you give it on the track!!!!! :

[Craig]

Oh well i certainly wasn't surprised, it was back on the road the next day laying rubber down high street.......LOL.

Mate you're going the blower option on the BF you will need a nice stainless cat back exhaust to go with the big headers you got there. : :

[CSV_LS1]

These 6 speed autos are damn good.

I really want to see what happens with the MT's on first.

Love the BLUEPOWER tune........ Chris is awesome with FORDS.
You guys rock.

Whatch that guy Craig when your not looking he will chuck a 3v in you car. :

[347_XR8]

Good work!!! So close to another Club 12

[hot460]

Went to WSID again last night. Over 200cars and bikes there. :togo:
Managed to get 4runs in.

13.124 @ 103.76mph 1.972 60'
13.102 @ 104.27mph 1.982 60'
13.090 @ 104.33mph 1.976 60'
1st 3 runs on MT ET Streets, then put the dunlops back on and new pb.
13.063 @ 104.69mph 1.986 60' :

The MT's are much taller than the dunlops. Still had traction issues with both.

[Craig]

Well done Rich, it's always nice to see guys get new PB's...

[xr8ute]

Wow, thats interesting results for ET Streets vs SP3000As. What size where the ET Streets? 255/40/17 (or whatever they are?)

I know this time of year is great for low RA and high MPH, but is grip noticably worse in the really cold weather? Must be hard to keep heat in the tyres let alone the track.

Regardless, its another consistant/impressive result Rich. When is the blower going on

[dute]

Getting close Rich well done..............

Cheers

Pete..
