Looks that way, my eldest lad is coming down as well but he`s only in a Subaru Impreza wrx sti so i will have to keep waiting for him :roll: See you there
Was that you I raced on saturday in my Gtir?
I didn’t realise how close you were timewise until I looked at my slip later on. What was your best time? I got a 12.063 at 112.66mph which was my new pb. (the race against you was my 2nd slowest time of the day)

It was indeed Paul who you went up against & i remember seeing you there ( well the Gtir anyway) I think Paul had a bit of a boost leak but i dare say when he sees this post he will respond I think he did a pb of 12.210 @ 115 mph

yes that was me!! yours is f’in quick!!!
as julian said i am having boosting issues!! i can only seem to hold 17psi, it setup to run 22/24 psi, i was hoping to move into the 11’s but was not to be!!
i love the Gtir’s they just look so normal! then you plant the right hoof and goes!!! it’s great!!!
maybe we will meet again when i got the leak sorted!!
are you a ex gto/gt owner as your join date on this forum is 2004!!!
Mine’s quick, but your mph was faster at the 1/8th by 2.5mph but in 0.37s longer, but I clawed it back to within 0.21mph over the line :lol: Yours is pretty impressive too for a big car.
I was hoping to break into the 11s too, but just missed out. I worked out I needed to lose another 25kg or gain 10bhp to do it. Gutted. :lol: Maybe I should have tried taking the rear spoiler off.
Alot of people don’t have a clue what a Gtir is as they’re not that common, so they get a major shock when we floor it.
Possibly next time you see me I might have upgraded the standard turbo to an HKS GT-RS and be running around 400bhp. As far as I know, I currently have the fastest standard turbo’d Gtir and I’m still an easy 30ish bhp off what a good standard engine/turbo/injectors can do.
I’ve never owned a Gto/gt. I forgot why I signed up. I think it was to post some pictures of Dave Naxtons car that I took at TOTB one year.
