    Fastest time at Japshow

    Well the tension is mounting yet again........who is the fastest member

    Hopefully we will find out on 10th October at Santa Pod.

    As with the event earlier in the year I think we should have a bit of a competition to see who can guess the fastest time of the day.

    I cant offer any prize at the moment, but I am sure one will be forthcoming

    So who is going to get the ball rolling?

    (By the way, there is a stupidly fast FTO that is also a member)

    I think that there may be a sub 13 at this outing

    So I think the fastest member of CVR4 will crack a 12.98....if its dry!!

    But It's not a VR4 !! separate category me thinks !!
    IMHO, I dont think a VR4 will break 13 secs................................ yet !! over half a second is a BIG leap. :rolleyes5

    I'm going for 12.995

    /edit: I'm not personally going for 12.995, not without a Tornado strapped to my roof.

    Errr...... I'll say 13.3. I reckon people will have problems keeping their car still whilst it's on the start line and fluff the launches....

    (And my other, non competition estimate is that Hordak will run a 16.8 second quarter at about 80 mph :rolleyes5)

    I've put a VR4 engine in a go-cart, expecting around 8.9 secs. Does that count ?

    13.24 by a compete VR4. I may be there to watch BDAs naked run, but my car won't, unfortunately.

    Folks.....

    I am sorry to disapoint you all.......


    But The VR-Micra will get the fastest Time!!

    I estimate a time for myself of 1 - 3 Days :rolleyes:

    That's a real shame. I was going to play you as my wild card with a time of 12.95. Would be good to see you there, though, even without the car.

    I shall rethink......
