Went to Stratford Raceway last weekend, got a new best of 10.71, had a higher terminal of 134.14mph on an earlier run of 10.78 but the wind picked up and i think it knocked the top speed down a tad.
I ran 11.4/10.9/10.8/10.78 and finally 10.71, i just kept dumping the clutch more bravely each time and it just launched harder!
If i could have got more runs in i would have kept upping the revs and clutch action, these latest drive shafts are certainly proving their worth..



A little vid here shows here the difference 0.9 of a second makes!

Still amazed your clutch isn't in a dozen pieces!
