Never done quarter mile, but definitely wanna have ago!! The horror stories put me off a little though, i.e Nigel's car left parts of his gearbox on the line iirc last time he did one?! Cars not back on the road till April 1st though..... No jokes!! How often are these open days at pod on?? Shakespeare race way is prob a better bet for me I think!? Nick

Tempted to head down to the Pod this Saturday (4th May) if this nice weather holds up. Its been a very long time since I last went. Im hoping to beat my personal best of 15.1 seconds set in a Honda Prelude Anyone else planning on going?

Back from the Pod! Was a good day!.... but mainly for everyone else! My clutch let me down a bit today. It has been the Achilles heel of my setup for a while as its not quite man enough and to top it off it has started slipping quite badly when i launch the car. Today I couldn't launch the car at any revs over 2k and had to ensure the clutch had fully engaged before accelerating. Once engaged it to coped with the torque ok. As you can expect this is not ideal for drag racing. It bogged down every time. My best time was 14.1 seconds which was not that bad I guess but I reckon I should be seeing mid to high 13's. Watch this space for a "which clutch" thread in the tuning section!
