I managed a 13.6 at 105mph vids going on youtube

Your right, Your mate utterly spoils the vids with his potty mouth, Tell him next time to shut it... On the plus side - good runs, and welldone on beating the MR2, They generally are crap at the pod unless have 400bhp, Or slicks..

The mr2 was stuggling to break 14 I don't think he did it all day strange for a powerfull light car, it must have had good power to run a 109mph terminal.
Yeah his mouth ruined about 3 vids we didn't put on youtube so we didn't insult half of the people at santapod.

Not bad launch on 2 of the races but the greddy helped I had to start in 1st gear on low boost then flick onto high after I changed into 2nd.
When I ran 1st in high boost it was almost impossible to launch.
The run against the lotus was my 1st of the day, ran a bad time because I launched in high and also hit limiter before the line in 3rd, my old coupe crossed the 1/4 in 3rd easily so thought id make it across but I think having a 6 speed box and more power meant I needed 4th a good 2 seconds before crossing the beams.

Nice vids. Pardon my ignorance but in the description box for one of your races you've put "jedward britney spears raping fast ford"... any significance?! laugh

Good times there though, very impressive.

You should an Apexi AVC-r, you'll be able to set up exactly what boost you want to run in each gear, and get your 1/4miles bob on.
