My belly tank is this years Pendine sands poster car, which as you can imagine I'm very pleased about. A great bit of photograph/artwork...
Just a lilte update, been out testing at Santa Pod this weekend and although not the perfect place to test due to it being a 1/4 mile of sticky rubber not a lake bed/beach/salt flat the tank still managed to clock just over a 100mph at the 1/4 mile and felt like it still had some leg room to go on a longer course....we'll see in september.
Nice video. It looks like it ran straight and tracked well. You musta given that FED a run for his money too. Have fun.
The FED is the Charles Bang dragster, they were very sportsman like and gave me a three second head start to even the playing field, was a good race.
I hadn't noticed this while driving, but shows up well in the video, I'm going to do some investigation. Due to no rear suspension it hops the rear wheels badly at Santa Pod as soon as the boost kicks in in first and second it starts to hop, so I usually change up a bit early to minimize it, once in third it seems OK so long as I don't stamp my foot in it straight away....which is hard not to do
