Scoobyghost Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Will I be doing 110mph then? Must be a calculator to check. I haven't tried a 1/4 on normal roads so no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I think there be plenty of helmets there..... Mostly on the Honda stands [emoji39] Joking aside I think I read they're only needed for open top motors doing over a 112 when they cross the line . My weather app says possible thunder storms for Sunday [emoji57] hope they've got it wrong as I probably won't bother doing the 1/4 if the strip is wet 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Wtf Tapatalk keeps stealing my smileys too [emoji35] Sussed it you have to use the tapa talk emoji button not your phone's keyboard one's [emoji6] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Think before you could use your phone smilies as well as the tt ones but now it's ******.

stants Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Ask nick how fast he was going at the end of the run, his was 360bhp and did it around 13 seconds I think and he didn't bother with a helmet, Ash on the other hand came helmeted and took about 10 seconds to cover the 1st 50 feet [emoji51] Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoobyghost Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 One of the local lads has 324hp blob eye and we have a bit rivalry. His power comes in top end where mine is lower down. So far we have seemed pretty even so we intended to run this side by side. Can you pick who you run with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 You can try depends on how many people are in front if you brake down on the line etc. At the end of the day you get your timing slips which have reaction time & quatre time so you can still see how well you compare without being side by side Those two were planning on going head to head but I can't remember why they got split up Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I'm not interested in racing anyone tbh I'll probably fook up the launch or miss a gear change anyways [emoji4] just fancied having a go at full throttle cos I rarely use anything more than 3/4 throttle on the road . As i need my licence to get to work every day 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Same as that savage. I give it a quick blast sometimes but never launch and flat out through the gears. It'll be nice to have a "figure" that I can use for pub chat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfnick Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Don't worry about helmets unless you're running mega power. I'm 99% sure if it's not a open top you have to get above 120mph for helmets to be mandatory. Mines 350bhp and did it in 13.2 at 101mph. I think you need at least 450bhp, if not more if you've not had a drastic weight reduction to get 120mph on it. If I remember rightly a mate of mine with a Turbo'd and stripped CTR ran about 500bhp and he "only" got 125mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I'm definitely safe on the speed front. Thank you Nick [emoji106] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
