A few pics from the 1st Cayley Event of 2019...

 

...Danielle did some friendly taunting, Yoon did some arithmetic, Mark did some incredible launches, Danielle did some more taunting, Ross throttled Brodie - who claimed he had too much "ballast" on board, and some cars even broke down, (no WRR members though)...apparently there was also a "Dick" spotted...

 

...lots of nice cars, but P-cars were the best of the bunch!

Wow, Al, that photo of me is simply magnificent. It captures and pure passion & enthusiasm. Brodie even has his game face on. I love it!

 

The "DICK" got raucous laughter from the crowd too.

 

Thanks for sharing your photos. That was super fun, I can't wait 'till the next.

oh yes, there was a lot of arithmetic involved lol.

 

My last 2 runs were my best of the day. Top speeds on all my runs were 150.5 to a high of 153.06mph. (Danielle was in the car to help counterbalance the suspension preload on the 153.06mph run haha) & on my last run, got called out by a new Huracan that was taking part in the Royal Rally.

He didn't use launch control because he didn't know how to activate it so I got the jump on him off the line. Finally got my 60' down to 1.6seconds with a 1/4 mile of 11.6seconds & 1/2 mile of 18.01seconds.

Thank you to everyone who came out. I’m always really busy running the timing system and don’t get to talk much, but I loved seeing all the cars run.

 

Dragon, what RPM did you get your 1.6 on?

 

It’s hard to not want a 991.2 after seeing Marks. They are incredible.

Thanks for all the work you & Raz put into these events. I think you need to corral up some more volunteers to lighten the load & ease Raz's stress level haha.

 

Yeah the pdk launch control on all the new turbos are just insane & unfair lol.

 

I think my rpm's were somewhere around 3500 rpm on that one. Can't say for sure though haha too focused on the lights & thinking just don't stall against the lambo. Though I know I should be able to get my reaction time down a bit more. It was a 0.56 reaction time on that run.

Just bugging you Al. I had my Jeep there.

 

...double apologies then James, I did want to get a few shots of the Jeep, but every time I headed over that way Brodie would intercept me and go on & on about how much faster he was than everyone else, and I just couldn't get away...;)...I'll try again next event!

Who or what car did the 1/4 under 10 seconds?

 

It was a sport bike. There was a turbo Hayabusa that did 9.30. The Jeep had the fastest run on 4 wheels with 10.40@131mph

Fastest Porsche out there this time was my 991.2 Turbo ... all wheel drive, launch control, and that low end turbo-torque is the ‘ticket’. 10.96 in the 1/4, 150 mph flat at the 1/2. I fully expect this will change when James brings his monster out next time — per above his Track Hawk Jeep is already 1/2 a second faster — that thing was amazing.
