Tuscan 4l standard on narrow 16" tyres

Reaction 1.124 (v. poor taht one)
60FT 2.187
1/8 ET 8.456
1/8 MPH 88.69
1/4 ET 12.837
1/4 MPH 112.37

So if you take off the crap reaction on that run it gives a running time of: 11.713 secs

Oh and I was still just wheel spinning on alot of them as I went through the 1/4. Fishtaling at 100mph isn't that good!

My Sat Nav records 1/4 mile times where and when and put up a top 10. So Griff 500 12.8. @5000 rpm change up. Dont try it all the time though, not a boy racer really!

Fish - the reaction time is not included in the 1/4 mile time! Only matters if you were actually racing somebody. So, 12.8, which is still pretty decent!

I think Ian Moon managed 12.3 with his Cerbera 4.2.

He got it down to 12.2 when he dropped the tyre pressure to aid with grip off the line...
