Mine and Ste's fell into the disspapointing catagory :(

My terminals of 108/109mph were matching the tuned Evo 8 that went with us and getting mid 12's but my proven lack of ability to get it off the line properly ment I was stuck around 13.3's again which it was doing last time with 60 less bhp & torque :evil:

I gave Ste the keys to mine to do a proper launch but an arsey marshall clocked us switching cars in the queue so he never got the chance.

Good day though with some very nice motors and Greeny's 2 taking the trophy after it's 2nd run :D
