    About 156km/h. Theres a lot of turbo lag as well which I suspect is caused by crappy FMIC install.

    What sucks is I wont be able to get the work done thats needed on it before the season ends.

    I'm thinking you should be good for a mid 14 pass.

    I'm hoping work dies down so I can make one of the remaining drag days.

    Apparently one of my mates was there in his VL and struggled for traction too, but he was running on hard old 15s so I shouldn't be shocked

    the day just seemed to cold for the track to have any real heat in it for the night=traction problems!

    14secs out of a t18, not bad at all!

    Looks like I might be locking up a spare centre and swapping it in, semi slicks and hopefully that will get rid of our wheel spin issue and make for harder launches. (until something goes snap, crackle or pop. lol)

    Might not make it next week, but definately going down the week following.

    Anyone else up for it?
