Lap record is 56.09 by ex F1 car.
Super Bikes down in the 1.05 area
Seat TDI touring car in the 1.11/1.12
I guess anything under 1.20 is very good for a road car.

Yep, im up for that mate.
Probably wont be there right at the start, but you can always have a couple of practice sessions on low boost first anyway.
Ive got wideband and det cans with me but no tools, im guessing you dont even own a spanner, but im sure we can borrow some
