Mark-rst : Hows the car mate, my mate in a red frst stopped to see if you was alright as he said you'd had problems at the bottom of the strip on your 13.8 run, he managed to post a pb of 13.7 @ 109mph and the other one in our group did a 15.1 a new pb for him running a grey s2 stage 1

I thought it was bottom end intially, but turns out i lost a valve in number 2, haven't pulled the head yet but the plug says enough! Looks like straight mechanical failure from what i can see. I'll put a pic of the plug up later...

Bloody good times there!

I wish I could have gone (car still needs a bit of tweaking) - I'm hoping to break under the 14 second quarter mile next time out!

FPMSL - You only beat me because were pulling faces and put me off

@ Driving gloves, they aren't driving gloves....... They are racing gloves Huuuuuuuge difference



Was a really good day, and it went so quick, I would have kept running and running as the car was getting faster and faster. If I did actually give a shit about my times and I messed about with different settings I reckon it could have gone a bit quicker, but in it's normal everyday, fully loaded, road trim I don't think there is much more in it.

Yep its silk violet covered, which is kind of like vauxhalls version of fords moonstone blue.

Totally bog standard calibra turbo engine internally, with a hybrid turbo and a rechip, still on standard injectors etc.

Will be in the 11s next year without gas hopefully!
(although TBH will probably be losing to sbd16v on ehre wiht his astra until chris gives in and nitrous's the nova too IMHO)
