Well done that man, When is the magazine due out?
Have you got any plans for the winter to make her go quicker?
Cheers Marcus

Thanks fellas,the magazine is in your local reading centre,sorry,WH Smith as we speak. as for mods,apart from learning how to use the slicks,I plan a little more boost and/or gas in time for the drags. .

Thanks for posting that.Yes I hope to be at the drags,but i have a meeting with the local RR first to play with boost and a bit more gas,so IF it survives that then I will be there.I put the M/Ts on too narrow wheels at first and had a very hairy ride down the strip,so now have some wider wheels.Best 60ft with the slicks was 1.9 secs,so more to come I feel.Funny though,even with the car weaving about all the way down the strip,somehow it never causes you to lift............

Lifting just causes more weight transfer and can make it worse
...at least thats what youre told to think when youre aiming for the wall!
I'll be there, probably in the mustang but not running, trying to get a few others there as its usually a bloody good weekend
