View Full Version : 9.82@144 no gas
Cosie Convert 09-05-2005, 07:25 AM This was a run without the nos, first warm up run of the day to put some heat in the transmission before 'going for it'
Lots of wheelspin off the line on the cold tyres.
Unfortunately I fried the clutch on the next "full bore" launch after I let the tyres down a bit to try and stop the wheelspin off the line :(
A 12 hr roundtrip for one competitive run :rolleyes:
Still, at 9.82 @ 144mph it's a new UK record for no Nitrous, beating the previous totb with-Nitrous record :D

..:bigFAT:.. 09-05-2005, 12:00 PM damn, how are so many other people in different countries getting faster times than anyone here in the us ..... BUT THAT IS STILL ONE HELL OF A RUN
metoo 09-05-2005, 12:48 PM damn, how are so many other people in different countries getting faster times than anyone here in the us most of them are not running these heavy New Age Imprezas.
Ghost Rider 09-05-2005, 12:55 PM and they have had the turbo platform for a hell of a lot longer
Kostamojen 09-05-2005, 03:23 PM No sound :( :( :(
sabaka95 09-05-2005, 04:28 PM those cars are the same as Rigoli's Little Red Wagon....2400lbs....
The car is 1000lbs less than new age Imprezas...
Ghost Rider 09-05-2005, 04:50 PM there is a euro car magazine that had a big imprezza line up and it had at least 12-14 imprezzas that were 10 sec cars, some lower. I am going to have to buy it and scan the article. these guys are crazy.
of note, seemed like a lot of them had 2.3l
Cosie Convert 09-05-2005, 05:05 PM those cars are the same as Rigoli's Little Red Wagon....2400lbs....

The standard car weight difference is around 200kg (thats 440lbs ;) )
My car is now fairly stripped in the rear but retains full dash/heater/carpets/elec windows etc and weighs approx 2500lbs unladen.

Great Run Andy.
Wasnt raining on your parade. Just sometimes on these threads some people just refuse to believe that two Imprezas are not the same if there is big weight difference.
Anyone doing a great run like that with full interior deserves applause... :banana: :banana:
Pavlo 09-05-2005, 08:08 PM full interior my arse! I think a picture of the interior needs to be posted Andy!

Anything wrong there Paul ?
ride5000 09-06-2005, 08:15 AM pics would be nice regardless... ;)
4wheelmotion 09-06-2005, 08:59 AM what about specs. engine? turbo?
damn awesome run!

jblaine 09-06-2005, 01:57 PM Congrats.
Pavlo 09-06-2005, 04:56 PM Anything wrong there Paul ?
Nope, but I think you would need to use your imagination to get to "full interior" !
20 litre fuel tank in the trunk, no inner skin to trunk, no sound deadening, no radio, no roof lining, no door cards, no anti roll bars, no power steering, even the blanking grommets removed to save weight!
jblaine 09-06-2005, 04:58 PM I didn't see anywhere in the thread where he said "full interior"...
deuce189 09-06-2005, 05:02 PM awesome, need to see a suby that can come close to shepard, maybe heh heh.
Pavlo 09-06-2005, 06:46 PM Great Run Andy.

leap of imagination above.

Ah shep will be in the 7's before long.

bunot 09-06-2005, 07:03 PM the only suby that might catch up to shep will be the ESX tubbed out AWD car. lol.

Wow, what a launch!
Vid does work. Need MPEG1 (VCD) codec. Moonlight Elecard MPEG2 codec pack has the necessary codecs to view it:

Wow who cares if it has some weight reduction, that thing is damn fast! Good looking too! :)
So what shortblock are you running, what turbo?
ryanjorunner 09-07-2005, 12:55 AM Why does the title say no gas? What were you running? :p
Just kidding, awsome times, keep us posted.

Kevin Thomas 09-07-2005, 09:38 PM I didn't see anywhere in the thread where he said "full interior"...
If you look REALLY hard, you may be able to see it. The words are the same color gray as the background. I could've swore I saw it earlier. :D

Do you have a particular shortblock in mind? :)
Cosie Convert 09-09-2005, 12:15 PM An exact replica of my current 2.33 unit !
It would allow me to push the envelope a bit further with out concerning myself about potentially losing a months racing waiting on a short motor build.

That's a tough one, as the block we made your R1 from is no longer available from Subaru.
bunot 09-09-2005, 12:39 PM give the guy a 2.8L....enough with the pansy 2.33L. :D
