Well wenny in the mk3 has finally broke into the 10s today at york even in this blistering heat

These are the stats i got off him

10.9 qtr at 129mph and a 0-60 time of 2.9

Will hopefully go even quicker tomorrow

Also a big well done to stu and will @msd for getting the car to go how it does

york is a faster strip as only the first 60ft has glue

the full throttle issue is down to high ACT causing the ecu to back things off

hopefully when its just up to temp in the morn for the forst or second run he will crack a better time
he wasnt useing the launch control today

im sure the times will be repeted at pod
as they say if you can get a 10 there then its a real indication you have a good setup
