Richard D has kindly put my latest power figures in to the Cartest, and these were the results, headline figures are 210mph top whack, and a 10.7 standing qtr!
I'll have to see if i can actually do it, but in the past its been a fag paper out!

The 60ft used is actually my best 60ft with my skinny wheels (1.78secs at the pod) so the 60ft calc is fact!! smile

I've actually been in touch with the Cartest author within the last 24 hours as the 0-60 times seemed too quick. He said the timing doesn't start until the car has travelled 1ft, so a drag strip "hook up" type figure smile

Only a 7.5 @ 98 for me so a bit of catching up to do.
I agree the 0-60 is optimistic but its got to be low 3's
