Hallo guys,

I did 11.2sec with 130 or 134mph(I don't remember exactly) and 1.9sec 60foot!

Unfortunatly the drag strip was very very bad without glue and very old.

With bumps over 1/8mile as you can see in the video.

Theese bumps caused the accident..

In a good drag strip and with rev limit 8500 I am sure that the time will be mid 10!

In other races I did 1.5sec 60foot but in this drag strip was impossible to do a good launch!

I set the tyre pressure at 7.5psi (cold tyres-before burnouts) in my try for a good time :(

This tyre pressure sure was an other reason for the accident.

At the time that I lost the car I push full brakes and the car did drift because the street has dust and was very old.

Glue has only fore the first 1/16 mile

I tried in the race to tune a little the car with the commander...

Rev limit: 8000rpm

AFR wot: 11.7!!

IGN: 19deg at 8.000rpm

Boost: 2.1bar - 31psi (without vaccum hose at wastegate :P :P )

100octane fuel

Very hot summer day!!! 100F 38C

The car is really fast now!!! :);):P

Ofcourse it needs tune but it is really good instead without tune.

Did the guy in the S2000 hit the wall because of the collision or because he was taking evasive action? Whatever happened that's a nasty hit - both of you walk away?

Isn't the rule on most strips that if you even get a hint of a loose ass end and don't back off you get in a fair bit of trouble?

Obviously not in Greece..

And if it is..then the guy is a wanker!

**edit** i retract that statement. He's a wanker anyway. He could tell his grip wasn't the best..should've acted on it

then again..i don't know how hard it is doing 11sec runs so i should probably not comment

^^ to me it looked like the Honda was trying to get out of the way.

The little story thing with one of the videos said that....but being that the OP tagged the ass end of it at 130mph...well yeah

Of course they did......thats why the Honda got out of control too....right.

yeah it def wasnt the 7.5psi in the tyres :) or the fact that he kept the boot into it with the car trying to swap ends

Been over pleny worse bumps than that at similar speeds on dirt, (Legally in rallies) and not had any issues like that... and as has already been said, the Honda was not having any troubles, and unless you car is far and away the quickest thing to ever run on that strip the cause of the crash is plain and simple, you ran shit out of talent

Idiots aren't even wearing basic safety gear.

I'm amazed they weren't hurt or even killed.

The 180 definitely tagged the s2000.

Gotta love 3rd world drags. :)

mate i dont know if i want to see a video of you trying to run a 10, running an 11.2 nearly killed you and someone else.

you can just see a guy in the 2nd video at 0:24 with his hands on his headshouting "RE MALAKA!" that comments sums it up beautifully.

    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
    • Yea, that is what I was getting at in my ramblings too. The nismo one actually is a 1.5 way and a 1 way. They don't do a *2* way because a true *2* way would have equal ramp angles. Or is that a true 1.5 way? Realistically I think a "1.5 way" does not actually exist. A diff can either lock in two directions or one. It also doesn't help that a LOT of people in Australia speak about 1.5 way diffs are referring to their 1 way diff.
    • Well, the trouble with that ^^ is: The configuration shown is absolutely a 1-way, not a 1.5-way. There is no way that a 1.5-way can be said to offer LSD action only on acceleration. If Nismo cannot get that right, then it is impossible to believe their documentation. That ^ is not a 1.5 way setup. That is a 1-way.   And so now I have allowed all doubts to flourish and have gone back to look at the MotoIQ video. I originally made the mistake of believing him when he said "this is a 1.5-way" at the ~6:10 mark. Because what he did was take the gear assembly out of the 2-way opening and just rotate it one place to the left to drop it into the 1-way opening. When he dropped it in there, the cam was "backwards" compared to the correct orientation shown in all other photos of that config. The flat shold have been facing the 1° ramp side of the opening, not the 55° ramp side. And I thought, "gee that's cute", but I was concerned at the time, when he put the other ring back on, that the gap between the rings looked like it was wider then in the 2-way config. And then I said a lot of things in my long post on Tuesday that could only make sense if the guy from MotoIQ was correct about what he'd done. BUT... I have now done my homework. I grabbed a frame of the video with the 2-way config, and then grabbed another with the "1.5-way" config, snipped out the cam and opening of that frame and just pasted it direct on top of the 2-way config. I scaled it so that the triangular opening was almost exactly the same height in both. AND.... the gap between the plates is wider with the cam installed in the triangualr opening backwards. That is.... it cannot go together that way. There would be massive force on the plates all the time, if you could even reassemble it.  So, My statement on the matter? The Nismo diff is actually only a 2-way and 1-way. There is no 1.5-way option in it, regardless of what they say. Here's a photo of a real 1.5-way ramp opening from Cusco (along with the 1 way option). And the full set of 1 through 2 way options from their racing diff, which is not same-same as what we'd typically be using, but...the cams work the same. A little blurry, but it comes from this Cusco doc, which is quite helpful. AND.... Cusco do in fact do what I suggested would be sensible, which is to have rings that do 1 and 1.5, and 1.5 and 2. Separately.
