Cutting out boot floor ?
What are the reasons for cutting the boot floor out and putting a flat floor in?

Not for weight then? Wouldent the exhaust muck the air flow up?
|
Think I will leave this to the experts now, all the top cars use a lot of carbon fibre to save weight, I will also be interested to hear the comments on this.:ok:
|
And alot of the big cars use side exit exhausts with the big diffusers
|
Not much of a weight save then?
|
What are you going to do fuel tank wise ?
|
Not sure yet, going to use the car at santapod and track days and need to drive it there from Eastbourne

This i post few months ago on SN

You must know how it works and probably will be best test this in Aero Tunnel(£500 per hour), technically i would do this on mine,but practically will is not for me,due i don't want put something which i never use(i'm not professionally racing or i'm not preparing my car for racing/TA) http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/907...arienzoyn4.jpg And here is great article on EVO forum about the Diffuser and how it works. http://forums.evolutionm.net/evo-x-g...unctional.html Jura |
What times are you looking for at the pod ?
I was running 11.4's @ 128mph with 450bhp with just sound deadening out Do you really want to go that far for a road car |
Anger. think i need some tips from you, my best time is 12.4 , really need to get into the 11s
|
You should come up to one of the SDS rounds with us mate
|
Hi Anger , maybe you can pm me a few dates , info. Thanks
|
As the last one was a wash out, there planning on adding another round, as soon as this is sorted and i know when my car will be finished i'll pm you mate
|
Thanks Anger , dont forget
|
i cut my boot floor out for weight, there are eaiser things to remove/ do for weight reduction
|
Hi Jaffa what are those?
|
Do you guys who drag race use shift lights?
|
Nope and dont use lauch control
|
So launch control is the key then? Got it but can't get the hang of it
|
Sorry you don't use it. Take the 11.4 was in your ra? Was it stripped out?
|
whats your 60ft times?
|

0-60ft 1.54 and normally about 1.6 at the worst |
On P2 we are cutting out rear floor pan next week.
Removing fuel tank and floor section and having it alley plated to include 30 Ltr fuel cell, twin swirl pots, fuel pumps & braided lines. We are having diffuser made at same time will be attached to underside. |

1st run 1.8 60ft 1/4 mile 12.6 105 mph 2nd run 2.2 60ft 1/4 mile 13.1 118.5 mph 3rd run 2.0 60ft 1/4 mile 12.4 112 mph |
Should be about 1.6 on an RA mate
|
are you spinning up on the line or bogging down? 2.0 60ft seems a bit high
|
Had the dccd fully open and the back wheels were spinning so locked it and started to bog down, need more practice and some helpful tips lol
|
More revs... 5500 revs and lift a little till moving and then side step the rest
|
Launch Control is only beneficial when it mapped to launch and many aren't.
Optimum set up for most of the big fish in the Scooby world is 5000 - 5500 rpm at 0.8 boost. That is the set up for the quickest 0 - 60 ft times in general. Triple plates are really hard to use. Did anyone see Mikee Singhs launch at The Pod on Sunday afternoon ? That was one of those best launches I've ever seen. The thing just took off. |
Mikee did a 1.5174 60ft time with a 9.66 @144 thats on a 2.1 on a gt30 very impressive!!
|
No launch control with Mikee ;)
