Default 11.0/129 at Santa pod this weekend

Ran my c38 special again this weekend. first run 11.19/117 missed 5th gear. on Saturday. Ran a load of bad runs with miss shifts, 1st ,2nd 5th etc.Couldn't get it together. Sunday first run blew the diff apart, luckily after reading these forums new it was a possiblilty and had a spare. Fitted it and followed with 11.01/129. 2 100ths off a 10. I had to try harder, Went out again and blew the diff again. Had the Geo done last thursday by Wheels inmotion at Chesham and it runs straight as an arrow, its not scary anymore. The engines still stock, just fitted a Competition Clutch St5 clutch which is holding up at the moment.

Best times were.
1.51 60' backed it up with some more 1.5's which was pretty awesome
7.1 1/8th
11.01/129.36 1/4

2 Diffs I am sure that there was a place in the US that did re-inforced diffs.

Good time.

It was rapid. I was there on the Sunday and that little 1.9 Pug was running a charger. I watched him for most of the afternoon causing havoc amongst the Skylines\ Imprezas etc. Very fun to watch.

I saw your car Horsepower queuing to get on but gutted I didn
