FORDSPORT 1/4m TIMES
ok i'd like to point out that it was VERY slippery hence why everyone (except smit the 4x4 loving cheeky cont 
) has times that arent exactly great...
my best: 14.6 @ 99.78mph
and yes that's WITH the nitrous
so karl, i'm currently eating humble pie as i can admit that that makes my car slower than a stage1 cosworth
it was some concelation that pops ran 14.7 tho woulda been ammusing to see your response to that, but then the cheeky coont ran a 13.9 @ 103mph afterwards so i cant rub it in 
smit was running a few low 13s then id a 12.9
time of the day i think!
the RS Turbos were VERY ammusing to watch, alex ZVH cabrio managed a stonking 17.2sec time ive never seen a car wheelspin SOOOOO much the XR2 turbos were in the 16s mostly, the fookers just span and torque steered all over the place could see chicken half way up the strip still violently fighting the steering wheel
i recon that stuff they put on the strip aint really glue, its fookin WD40!
so, who else has got times

FPMSL!!!- was a top weekend IMO, weather weren't great, but still a bllody good laugh- roll on next year!!!!!!
anyways, here are all my times!
16.35 @ 92.7 - first run, was quite funny spinning into 3rd
15.4 @99.31
15.1 @99.2
15.07 @ 100.11 (see that jim- 100 mph terminal, still with 6 psi )
14.97 @ 99.2
so, all in all, im happy that im in the 14's, at at least im reasonably consistant speed wise, just gota get the fooker to grip! - none of my 60ft times are below 2.6 seconds

tiff excuses are as follows:
1) grip was bad
2) recounter weren't workin n helmet meant i couldnt hear the engine revs etc. so didnt know how much i was revving it, hitting limiter etc. etc.
3) the nitrous is WAY too laggy and i was activating it at the wrong time
4) i had a hangover
5) the zetec S owner gave me evils on the startline and scared me
6) "it's not my scene"
7) Diff was spinning only 1 wheeloff the line
8) i cant launch for SHIT
that enuf excuses for you?
