Yeah, ask Paul Ripley on here, he was in the 4's, as was Tim Butcher and a few other aswell IIRC. You'd need silly power for those times though.

Either that or a seriously funky diff/suspension set up.

Tyres mate. Are you on 17's? They're useless for grip. 15's, with the widest cut slick you can get on the rim. If drag is your thing, then Mickey Thompson drag radials.

Either that, or race Vectras from a rolling start

They're the best compromise between looks/handling.

What kind of tyres are you running?
