Robandcolin Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 I'm just braver I let the results do the talking.... 2:1 nuff said?!?!?! *Flicks through freshly printed book entitled 101 sprinting excuses* Well you see at Shelsly........ Cough*Promotion*Cough Rob Quote
Blatman Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 QUOTE Any one else reading this thread who isn't running a Xflow with 130ish HP and a 2000e 4 speed with 3.5 ish diff please dis-regard above advice. Thanks Phew, that's a relief. I thought that I was doing something wrong when you said "flat in 3rd" approaching the first hairpin. I can't do that with 250bhp Quote

machin Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Cough*Promotion*Cough Rob Swing the hammer enough times and you're bound to hit the nail once or twice......!!! Sorry Rob, I do this when I'm playing squash.... normally works then.... Psychology being 95% of the game.... Quote
Blatman Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Nearly have on more than one occasion Plus Blatgirl has actually managed to spin it in the forest. Very scary, but she still finished the run 'cos there isn't really enough room to actually get all 4 wheels off the course Quote
Robandcolin Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 Sorry Rob, I do this when I'm playing squash.... normally works then.... Psychology being 95% of the game.... Too late I already have the upper hand by putting in that 3rd run proving I can go alot quicker. Now you are left wondering where I found the time. Rob Quote
machin Posted September 11, 2006 Posted September 11, 2006 no points on offer = wasn't trying (you may fall for that if you ignore my earlier post!!!)..... Quote
machin Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 One last dig.... During the timed runs...... or after them in the "wind-down" 3rd run......?!!!! It was a pretty impressive 48 seconds if I remember correctly... and Rob's only got a 130-ish BHP crossflow.... Quote
Robandcolin Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 I did 48.68 in my 135hp Xflow. Could have gone a bit quicker though given more runs. Richard wasn't trying otherwise it would have been close. Rob Quote
John Loudon - Sponsorship Liaison Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 Well done Rob. I thought all timed runs counted towards the SS results? Quote

Could have gone a bit quicker though given more runs.Richard wasn't trying otherwise it would have been close. Rob yeah yeah, very funny....... I may've got a few tenths off.... but you were so much quicker on your last run it shows you were doing something drastically different to me (Which you described earlier)... learning how to "read" a course and how quickly I can go through any particular combination of bends is definitely the skill I've got to learn..... oh and..... [flicks to page 5 of the "Wayward Racing 101 sprinting excuses"].... I've got 120BHP.... How'd Cadwell go Rob??? Quote
