Made 3 runs today, could have made more but just wasn't really into it and needed to get home, anyway my times were

14.8
14.6
14.4
in that order so heading in the right direction.

 

[Drifter]

Well done. Havent taken mine to the strip yet. Impressive mod list you have there.

 

[ian.j]

saw you do a couple of your runs, my best was 14.7, I decided not to burnout or launch high revs as had to do a 500 mile drive home. here is my run https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDXbXNfAHHY

 

[Nitro-Si]

I did 2 small burnouts over 3 runs to put some heat in the tyres and to clean them, if you get the Bridgestones too hot they get greasey which obviously has a negative effect.

Still very good numbers.

 

[Nitro-Si]

I may go back later this year to try to improve in things.

 

[ian.j]

few people went home with a bag of bits, did not want that to be me

how do you find the quaife, worth the money?

 

[Nitro-Si]

The Quaife seemed to work brilliantly on the drag strip, not tried it on a regular track but will do over the coming months.
It works really good on the road too but it does pull the steering about a bit

 

[rodmoe]

Agreed it has a different feel when it starts to pull the car around a corner.. I did manage to overpower both tires at a stop light breaking loose in first and chirping hard into second ... Oops. lol

 

[Nitro-Si]

I fitted Michelin Pilot Sport 3's about a week ago, way better than the stock Bridgestones.
