This guy is just amazing

Northy 8 · 27-08-2006, 17:22

The man and car are awesome he ran 9.3's all day, that 9.1 run was not even perfect it bogged a touch on the start, the way it picks up after second gear is not real, looks like someone has pressed fast forward, do not know how he stops the thing there, not alot of run off area

Sure i heard someone say that his 60ft was 1.9s as well , so more to come . Well done Andy

Northy 8 · 27-08-2006, 17:37

That was mark algin, he got a 1.54 60ft, time, the 1.9 was his reaction time, not a bad day mr peach, and i know there is alot more to come with your car, that will be it for me till next year, plato'd no more to come,

Well done

I wanna see what Mr Cowie does when his thing is alive and kicking

scoobytyson · 27-08-2006, 18:48

did he back it up with another run ??

Northy 8 · 27-08-2006, 21:23

ran lots of 9.30's then 1 x 9.19, went to back it up and a drive shaft broke, so not offical, but good enough,

evo400 · 27-08-2006, 21:26

well done andy !!

another good set of times there .!!

Andy.F Scoob RA · 27-08-2006, 22:51

Thanks guys

Here's the 9.1 run taken from behind....oh-er

An excellent day everything considered with all 7 runs in the 9's
Note to self.... don't do celebratory do-nuts on warm sticky drag radials... its not good for the shafts

well done andy

The track guys at York Raceway were excellent, they had the track well prepped and sprayed right up to the 1/8th. They were actively seeking feedback on how the track felt and re spraying as necessary. Pulled my best ever 60' there yesterday at 1.541

I think thats why Steve was jumping on the startline He knew the track was spot on. It's difficult to get an ideal surface for launching a 4wd car and to have the UK 4WD (perhaps European ?) record there means a lot to the track team. Well done guys.....I'll be back
