its only a short film taken by Andrew Nelson on his I-phone at this years s club event, at RAF Cosford having a bit of fun blasting over the 1/4mile, Andrwew then doing his own run in his S2.

a lot of fun, timings were 13.2 secs but this was done by chaps with flags and stop watcheshehe but on passing the 1/4 mile mark, speedo indicating 125mph in 3rd.

I can't wait to see the car in the flesh at the Growl.

I would have thought if your terminal speed was 125MPH the 1/4 miles time would be less than 13.2 seconds. You should get down to Santa Pod on one of the RWYB days.

it was set up for a bit of fun, rather than serious stuff, as the timings were done by a chap dropping his flag to go, another chap with a stop watch being started on this signal at the other end, and me trying to get a good launch as the flag drops, so a bit of trial and error, but good fun.
so yes a santa pod day would be interesting.

Glad you liked it, still don't get bored of watching it although you are considerably quicker than my S with a lowly 15.99s and yes the 0.01 makes all the difference rotate !
