Did 2 runs both the almost exactly the same.
No Nos, 21Lbs of boost
The time is slowish and the terminal is slow because I was unable to select 5th gear (driver confusion!!!)
I was maxing out in 4th, missing 5th and coasting to the finish! missing about 3 sec of 5th gear acceleration.
So defanetly a lot more to come, with more boost, some nos and a better driver!

Fast Ford snapper
Deffo not bad considering it was its first time, short shifting and coasting at the end 
I've got good at launching and doing stupidly fast shifts (have to try my best to make up for lack of power
) ....so I'll drive it next time for you

Simon I had it in my head that the PF date was the middle of March
I plan on taxing it form March, needs an mot & a few bits a pc's looked at and I'll take things from there.
I do aim to be at Crail though and there shouldnt be any reason why the RST shouldnt be there too. Its highly unlikely it will be ready for the strip though!

Yes Wul, fingers crossed.
