OMG - that\'s quite impressive for a car that probably drove there knowing James - nice work indeed - seems this year is going to be good for competition !
 
As Ben sais, what is the record (UK and World) for the street class ?

Awesome stuff.  That\'s very quick.  I don\'t think either Gary Goodings or Chris Impey have got into the 7s so that\'s a mega time for a street car with IRS!

Apparently putting details of your car spec in your signature means the nice folks on exile-rotorsport think you\'re a fool.  I can think of no higher compliment!

Awesome, well done! :)
Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.
