11.53@122.19mph
Had a run At Wsid tonight.
Fastest I have gone. Air Temp 21 Rel Hum 75 Abs. Baro 29.92 RT 1.059 60 1.724 330 4.973 660 7.494 MPH 99.21 1000 9.703 ET 11.530 MPH 122.19 K/ph 196.65 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulsUxK92fzg Getting there, I found I was backing off the throttle in the launch rather that putting my foot in.

Philm
Phil, Great run. Looked pretty casual about it too... |
Nice run Phil.....
The car is quick and seems to have pretty good manners. I'll be happy in the 12 seconds somewhere. Video is great, nice and clear and very little distortion. Anything special about the camera?? Hogster |
Well done Phil. Not very many QLDers have ever gone that fast in a Cobra.
Hogster, 12 sec pass in a Cobra is certainly more than respectable. We certainly never managed that in the first Cobra. |
Camera
The camera is a "Chase Cam"
They are fantastic Pneal let me borrow his and then Karen bought me one for my Birthday. The Youtube is greatly reduced in quality, the actual footage is much better you can watch it full screen on the TV and t feels like you are in the car. I think it coped with the low light well. Phil |

HI Paul, That is the electric water pump light, lets me know it is working. Bourret, Ther tyres are Mickey thompson ET street radials. Time, definitely not the quickest, Greg hood and Geoff pinch and the WA guy hold these honourws for a NA car. Phil |
All of the DRB GT40's seem to hit the low 12's very easily...even fairly modest 5lt examples. Don't know how many of gone into the 11's though.
I've been meaning to find out what the fastest GT40 time is. I expect Peter Ransom might have that title as he frequents the drags and has some serious HP. None of the GT40's I know of up here have run Mickey's. Don't know of any NA Cobra's in QLD that have gone faster than you Phil. |
"Missile Mizzi" is 100% RIGHT.
Hi Phil,
Well done, good to see it all coming together after all the effort. Hope to get there myself one day soon. All the best for your Birthday too!!!!:LOL: Don |
I just took a sticky beak into your Gallery Don, your car is looking fantastic.
|
Go You Good Thing!
Well done Phil!
Definitely two wheels spinning at the burnout! :) Bring on the low 11s :D Stef |
Nice work Phil, the video is worth watching just for the fabulous sound that your car makes!
Ross |
Nice run and car,:)
The run looked a little short shifty except in 3rd. Not having a go. Just commenting. Get another 1000-1500 rpm out of 1st and 2nd and you might shave 1/3 to 1/2 second off that time.:) Great sound too!! |
Nice
Nice time Philli,
But your short shifting , and your suppose to drive with two hands When's the next outing will have to come and chase that 11 sec barrier see u at brekky ;) Hey Don , hows the car coming along |
Short shifting
That was something new was to short shift first and second.
You are dead right the 300 times I have watched it I now know that I need to stretch out 1st and 2nd a little more. I also have the rev limiter set at 7000rpm, I am booked in for another dyno session next week as the tune is rich up high, we will spin it to 7500 now and get the tune better. that with the better shifting will see a better time. Drag racing isawsome it is a perfect test of man and machine, stuff the slightest thing and the run is stuffed. Phil |
phil
nice run when u goin out agein so we can come ;) ;) |
Having a go
Boys,
have a go on Wednesday. Anyone else coming? Phil |
Getting Ready
Having another run tomorrow.
It was about time that we really streched its legs and see what its got. We reset the rev lim to 7500, this is the most we will get from the engine untill we run the NOS. http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/data/500/DYNO_1_.JPG Phil |
