Hey all,
Im gonna bite the bullet & go for a run down the strip this Wednesday.
I know the cars not %100 finished yet, nor tuned to its full potential, but Im curious to see what it'll do. Will also give me a benchmark to work against as I finish the car off. Wont be using the nos this time, but will be winding the boost up.
So come have a run, or just come for as a spectator
FYI my best last run was 14.97 @ 158kmh, that was with the old 6A12 non mivec & a 100hp shot of nos.

I would love to go for a run but I have just gone back to work so I don't think they would like me having a day off

racing starts from about 6 normally and finishes about 9-10. I've not been for about a year and I can't get on the site at the moment.
