David is smart! There's. No doubt... but.... he's a little out of touch with our scene.

I read a magazine some 28 yeras ago belive it or not. ??

David with took a N/A 1293 engine with 2 slicks and swaped them over on the front wheels at santapod his daughter drove the car up the strip and netted a 12 second 1/4 mile dead.

the enginee had all the trick bits 5 port head and 45 single Webber. Well that's a magazine for you believe or not? ? .....

The mini was a stock 1275 clubman apart for the slicks and a racing snake daughter weighing 30 kg. ..lol

Lets invite David on this forum not to slag off or whatever! but make him VERY! WELCOME!!! And if. He wants ? To have some great input to it. .......... that's the way forward gents



Everyone knows the efforts I have gone to with my car, verrrry lightweight, all the power an n/a can muster and I run 13.0 at 107mph, so I personnally cannot believe she ran a 12 dead without some evidence. I have read the same article

I seriously doubt it!

I don't think I've seen that ticket before, that 1/8th speed is very fast.

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination,
talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol

I'm mainly concerned about swirl in the runners caused by the tangential entry.

Reading the thread I think he's talking about N/A engines. Anyone can get a turbo into the 13s.. just run a fuckload of boost, not exactly rocket science is it..
i think there maybe abit more blackmagic involved than just a fuck load of boost


i think i ran a 13.8 last year on 13 psi ? 625kg.

Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM

There is also a video of that same run on You Tube. It is massively underwhelming to watch. Even in the car it didn't feel all that quick. Apart from the 60ft which felt bloody blistering.

Have you not seen Paul Wigintons car ?


Phil, we've all agreed years ago that this is only "half a car" *wink*

The A35 is the best one on there :) Lovely!!!

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem.

I can assure you I was pulling cogs as fast as possible, as backed up by the above ticket, LOL

Paul your mini is just the definition of lightness.

If she ran 12 sure it was in a mini? The clubby isn't the most aerodynamic car in the world. (unless you brought the Austin Princess and drove it backwards...)

Everyone here gets a very warm welcome I think regardless of who they are, everybody is on a level playing field, there is no 'I'm better than you' attitude to this forum either which is part of why it works so well.

I believe Carl's twinni was lighter before fitting the second engine
