Thanks for the positive comments.

Just a little cooling issue to sort the temp just climbs in idle. I thought I had the most powerful spal fans 12" you can get but after speaking with them today they have some which are twice as powerful so out comes the wallet again lol

I wont attempt drag racing unless I'm on some mickey Thomson et streets minimum or I'm wasting my time turning up and paying lol

MT street et radials are road legal and all the grip Neal would need. On normal street tyres a fair bit of peddling would be required but I reckon still a mid to low 11 easy enough.

Agh, 11's is not 9's however I'm aware there are I believe a fair few street legal cars have got into the 9's with such sticky tyres.

Good luck and great thread.

They are universl Stainless Steel ones from MJ Exhaust.

Only £35.00 each the whole exhaust came to just over £200.00 which was an absolute bargain!

I know a street legal car in this country that has run low 8's on the same tyre.

Granted a mid 11 is a world away from a 9 but street tyres will only provide so much grip, maybe a low 1,8 to 60 foot. Whereas on MTs the grip is all there and with the sort of power Neals car will have then drivetrain and suspension permitting he could drop into the 1.4's. That would knock a whole second off the ET. So my prediction is low 10's on MTs. Then maybe into 9's with a good run, on the power early, quick gearchanges etc.
