Tom Selby Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 That would have been me, plate ends ccy, yesterday didnt go as planned if you saw the first run ! ;(Spotted at RWYB yesterday.

ashbuxton Posted June 4, 2017 Author Posted June 4, 2017 No I didn't see the run but my mate said you had some problems what happened? Was a mint day for it weather was spot on! Some nice old fords there aswell. Would love a cossie powered mk1/2 escort. Quote
Tom Selby Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Yeh i camped over for classic ford, just couldnt get traction, ended up running 20psi in the tyres amd the clutch hated it ! Still on stock clutch so should have known it wouldnt like it but shopping for one as we speak aha just not sure what to get, i saw you ran a 14.3, i nearly missed you but ran over and caught you Quote
ashbuxton Posted June 4, 2017 Author Posted June 4, 2017 Yer 14.3 was my best of the day. To be fair I didn't get a perfect start all day i was running 15 psi on a ct9 hybrid but wheels were spinning to much on the start (poor/nervous driving I think). My old GT had a LSD and I found it helps so much with traction you don't realise until you've not got one how important they are. It's great fun though isn't it 😂 It's great fun though isn't it.. 😂 Quote
Tom Selby Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 What power you running ? Yeh id imagine lsd would help, i meant 20psi in my tyres, mines 187.4 bhp 180ftlb @1bar, i dont think the tyres im running helped at all aha Quote
ashbuxton Posted June 5, 2017 Author Posted June 5, 2017 I'd say about 190-200bhp mate but tbh not had it rr. What set up are you running? Would of been nice to have an 82 vs 91 showdown running similar power aswell! I didnt mess around with tyre pressures as we had no pump with us or pressure gauge had a boot full of tools and a jack though so that must of slowed me down abit 😂 Was paranoid about not making it home haha Quote
Tom Selby Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 Mines 187.4bhp 180ftlb @1 bar on the ct9 turbo, need a clutch and will be a lot better !! Yeh would have been good against you if i was getting decent runs in :/ Quote
