Sounds like a good day.
Charlie driving andrews car 10.78 at 138 mph on his 2nd run more to come i would expect.
Charlies car 11.3
Charlies old mk1 focus with a 380 harvey engine 4x4 done a 12.2 first time the boy has driven the car scince it was built at andrews.
Think col cos is having a few runs.
Andrew is busy with his mobile rolling road its a 2wd one be good to hear the results see if any the ava boys have been on.

What was your quarter mile times?
Charlies m3 made 321 at the fly on the rollers that mean its over 400 really then? standard evolution
A boy with a 130 mondeo made 137 that would mean they were reading more
Col still had the most powerfull car there on the rollers
