Maybe I'll just wait until Oct 28th, the local circut near me Llandow is also having an open track day (I'm track virgin, but been to the dragstrips plenty).....

Will there be any TVR's that I can hang with? Your time is flyin'!!! 11.6 with the bottle.... What time without spray?

I usually run 12.7x's pretty consistantly, good for a 2000 kg saloon..... driving

I have just fitted a replacement engine that has been mapped running megasquirt to give 308bhp.
I ran without gas at York a few weeks ago and managed a 12.4 @ 111. (0.6 and 4 mph improvement over the old engine).
At Shakey on 1st of this month i ran 11.65 @ 123 with 'only' 65 bhp from the gas and a below par 1.90 to 60 foot.
Lookig forward to nudging into the 1.7's and running a true 100 shot on the 28th.

12.7's in a 2000kg car is very good. My car only weighs in at 1060kg.
