Front diff blew on 1st run (literally sub 0.5sec after launch) as it was standard i was told (std is mega strong, but car is SILLY powerful so was gona be a risk) as uprated one hadnt arrived.

Exploding diff damaged sump so took a while to fix.

Ran RWD only to do a top speed run.

Even with driving over 1/4mile before even putting foot down supposedly he pulled approx 9200rpm in 6th which is WELL over 200mph and woulve won the top speed by a mile...

But the dappy bint meant to be controlling the equipment was too busy chatting to record the time

Nope.

The Giken Diff hadn't arrived so had to use standard Nissan. It lasted about 1/10 of a second. On inspection, it had stripped teeth clean off both the crown wheel and pinion
