Sun 25th Apr Crail Raceway 1/4 mile drag

[Dan_G]

Just found out that Crail Raceway near Edzell does 1/4 mile drag events every second sunday!! and this sunday there is another......

See:- http://www.crailraceway.co.uk

having only had my car a week I'm tempted, but reluctant to trash it.... although it would be nice to, well, you know, see what it can do, so to speak

anyone taken a manual VR4 down the 1/4 mile before?[edited...inserted VR4 :rolleyes5 iwas'nt very clear the 1st time]

yipp!! but not a mitsy i went a few time's with my cavalier which went rather well ,ive got the time's writin down somewhere i'll put them up later?crail is very good as long as the weather is good!! one time there was less than 40 car's for 1/4 mile then at other time's you can't move!! .

ive found one of my time's for my old cavy= 1/4 mile= 14.1 sec'c@98.mph :-D (why did i sell it!!)

Did a 13.7s/102mph run in my Subaru Legacy RS-B. Crail's very popular now - check the website at http://www.crailraceway.co.uk

It's nowhere near Edzell, though ... Edzell is north of Brechin, Crail is south of St Andrews in Fife.

I was at Crail last week with my new VR-4. Only had it 10 days!!

It was a jap festival day :-D Had lots of looks from the posers wondering why an estate car was there :-b

I beat every scooby I went against and was only beaten by my mate who runs a 480bhp soarer

best time was 15.216 @91.5mph lot of improvement here I think

See here for a video of the run

thats a sweet looking VR 4 mate !!! great to see them being used properly :-D
As you say, there is room for improvement with BDA's de-cat pipe, decent [ twin ] exhaust, & a touch of boost etc !!
I've run a 14.01 @ 97 mph. & I think PJ holds the current record @ 13.8 !!
welcome to the club !! :wavey:

Cheers,

Only problem here is I also run a NOS 24v Probe and its taken up all my spare cash at the mo.

The missus drives the VR-4 so any mods will have to be done on the QT ozey:


Thanks again for the welcoming comments

I think you will find the de-cat pipe @ £45 well worth it, if not for the performance increase, then just for the noise !!
search the forums, & you will find some soundbites of Dave's & mine's exhausts. [ damned if I can find them though ?? ] :$
I'll keep searching !!

Nice car. My V6 was that colour. Good to see more scooby bashing going on!

[SGHOM]
