Small update: I haven't driven the car yet due to lockdown, but did book it in for a day at Santa Pod just so I could get behind the wheel.

I started off cautiously as I had no idea how it would drive/come on boost etc... but the first time it did - Jeeezz - never felt anyything like it. Made my old single turbo BMW feel like a Transit van.

Started getting braver with it (diff isn't rated for big power so wasn't exactly doing full bore launches, hence the 60 foot) but the terminal started creeping up with little effort, so must have some real power. I ended the day on a 10.6 at 149mph on street tyres.

It's not really a drag car so was happy with that for the day - I'll be going back to crack a 9 as the terminal is mental high - should be good for a deep 9.
