I'll let others give their own results but I only managed 104hp at the crank due to a misfire and erratic fueling that I need to identify the cause.

However, my 104hp was the lowest figure of the day, the standard being so high.

The twelve TurboMinis managed an average of around 170hp !!!!!!!

Matt Woods got the highest figure on the final run. Congrats Matt.

Big thanks to iain for organising a great day.

Yep 130 is correct, but at only 10psi. Should be at 15psi so the 150 is there somwhere. Needs investigating. We knew it was down on power, so I was happy with 130.

Just heard from Sturgeo at The Pod.

There are some impressive PBs being set.

Back to fixing my misfire, else I shan't get there today.

Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

Many thanks for everyone turning up!

was an awesome weekend and will be repeated next year i reckon.

Mine ran and drive, just ran out of time to map it to power run it and race it but its getting there. Bloody throttle bodies are loud!!!

Awesome power and looking forward to reading the article. Thanks to Matt for organising that side of things.

Nice to see some old faces again and also all the new ones. Goes to show that TM is all about go and not just fancy paint!

I'll be back next year fully prepared and ready to see what this vauxhall thing can do!

My first ever drag meet and I was disappointed with my performance,

The compensation was that I got to meet some TM people and find out what a nice crowd they are.

I think Santa Pod should be told that booking in 500+ vehicles does not work -the queue for the strip after lunch was over 1 1/2 hours.

I,ll be back next year with a bit more power and hopefully a better launch technique.
