super Xflow

[Toby]

this is it 12.104 so far fantastic naturally aspirated only and some mods

 

Now thats impressive!!! Makes me and Toby seem slow

 

I think if you built an all steel pushrod james it would be close to that, 200+bhp with light body = a fast time

 

I think you're right it's all a matter of physics, but I am sure weight must be an advantage for this car as there must be an upper limit on power somewhere with an 8 valve push rod , plus I know James did the London to Brighton in his and my sister went to her wedding in mine - how extreme is this engine? And how many miles will it do between rebuilds?

 

Hat's off the them though whatever spec the car is this car must put a smile on a few faces!!

 

Brilliant.

I assume from that you told Jo and Col to stop it!

[Toby]

this x flow have a 2000 std gearbox belive it or not ......

 

I believe some of the boys over here run those. It gets them off the line well

 

Do you know 60 ft times or any of my other questions?

 

What I said?

[escortmad79]

Swap it for the 1100 crossflow in my estate

[dragaddict]

the more low the ratio is on the diff the more power comes up from an xflow

[Toby]

Thanks dragaddict

 

You're not giving much away though!! Weight? Terminal speed? 60ft? Capacity? Is that ally floors etc? Ladder bars?

 

I had a little look on Maltadragracing.com for some results and couldn't see any. Only photos of the Taz car. I can see it has Perspex all round, enormous slicks and skinny fronts but that's all you can get fron a photo.

 

Don't make me come over there!!

[dragaddict]

it has i lightened body,ladder bars,lots of alluminium

Sounds like a very well engineered car

 

Looking forward to hearing about an 11 second Maltese CF!

[dragaddict]

thats where he is aiming

[tazrocks88]

the secret is the spirit from TAZ in the decals gives it more power

[dragaddict]

maybe something like that

thats where he is aiming

 

sounds really impressive mate!!! Shame im going pinto now!!!

 

What sort of 60ft times and terminal speed is this thing reaching to cover the 1/4mile in 12.1

Haven't got a clue what you're talking about Toby ... nothing to do with me.

Must be Col then! I've always been a little suspicious! Kids and a wife - just a smoke screen!

[Toby]

Ok then - bring it on!

 

I recon - if my prediction is right, I should loose by about 0.5 - 0.6 seconds.
