very good results despite the track being unglued, only ran 1 bar boost, 60fts were only 1.8s no grip wheelspun the first 330ft , ran a series of 11.5,11.8,11.7,11.6,11.8,11.6,11.8,  best terminal was 124.

checked the plugs and the tune is spot on thanks Reworx for a great Map.

The feels real strong engine thanks Era for Great engine build and being superb pit crew!

no car beat me this weekend but a old skool Mk1 4wd Golf turbo ran me close

well done mark. Nice and consistent.  Was the 11.5 your first run?  typical you get the best time first run but it seems to happen quite often.

Nice pics, you can see you back tyres doing their job well.

yep it was before the track got worse from all the runs by the normal tired cars taking what ever glue off the start line also track and air temps just dropped like a stone
