Drag Preperation for Sunday

Gordon · 26th March 2004, 18:58

about the e220, will it give only 50 bhp more? thats it??
I mean at the time when he uses it, it should be a hell lot na
why do I feel 50 bhp is less?

I've seen that Silver Supra a few times around Blore, but that isn't the fastest one. The other, White coloured Supra is supposed to have 750bhp. It can pull early 12 sec times for the 1/4 mile. They say, if driven correctly, it should manage late 11 sec times.

One more thing to keep in mind is that the Drag in Blore was held in Nov 2003, under colder conditions.

I feel the cars that ran in the Blore drag might no be able to post similar times in Bbay, as Bbay is a lot hotter and humid and this will affect performace.

So even if the Supra comes he won't be able to post the kind of times he managed in Blore, unless he's tuned it for more power.

Hey RG

I've prepared some prints infact lots of em ... I guess we can have them on urs as well as our cars .. man we should rock the place...

Cheers

Hey Dippy,

do you guys have any special ideas on how to stick the stickers?

Better make sure they arent gonna be ripped off by the wind coz then it becomes a bit of a safety issue!..... how about some 2" duct tape and maybe some double sided tape in the middle to keep it down? .....cant really think of anything else.....

and i guess u guys are gonna put it on the door that faces the crowd right?

cheers!

Hey u Guys where are all these drags held we uys in pune never hear about these events if we did hear about it we would be here burnin rubber too:angry:

TF,

These drags are organised by Autocarindia, and seem to be held on a 6 month basis, alternating between Mumbai and Bangalore.

In Bombay, it is held on the newly and partially constructed Bandra-Worli sealink. The entire flyover is cordoned off for the drag race.

Keep visiting team-bhp regularly for happenings on our automotive scene
