My N12, fastest FWD car in europe! 9,35-248kmh

Post by Bjorn325 »

Hi everyone.
It has ben a looong time since I was here.
I know lots of stuff worth knowing about these cars but unfortunally I have been quite busy playing with my N12...

..infact I made it the fastest FWD car in Europe a couple of weeks ago. =)
It is now SR20 powered so I imagine most of you dont look at it as a N12 anymore,
but it is still the same N12 Cherry as I ran 11,72 according to the top-ten list back in the days.
I actually ran 11,53 a couple of weeks later but Dan and Ben were still faster with there 11,52 so I didnt bother to update the list...

I am not aiming for a place in the list with this either,
I just want to tell you Im verry happy. =)
Here is a film from when I ran 9,35-248kmh:

Very nice man.

Quick question, why do people put wheelie bars on a FWD car? Is it part of the regulations? Or is it just for looks? I've seen a few FWD vehicles with wheelie bars, and always wondered why they have them.

i think more to the point they are designed to stop weight transfer to the rear on a front wheel drive so to keep more weight down on the front wheels for more traction.

its to keep the weight transfered over the front wheels, by stopping the rear end from "squating"..... they also help with stability at very high mph as bjorn's car would see.

CONGRATULATIONS Bjorn!!!

I was reading the latest copy of Banzai - Tuning Magazine and on the front page of Oct 2010 issue they have a Civic Type R Tunned by CPL Racing claiming to be the first car to run a 9 sec quarter mile in Europe. They manage to pull a best of 9.91 @ 149MPH at very best. I would like to prove that ort N12's are one of the first in Europe to pull a 9 sec out of the bag. When did you get the result?

P.S Still, its nice to see that the Bjorn's N12 is Quicker lol
