Outstanding top speeds!

Gutted for Tony - he's spent a fortune on that car recently

Quite pleased that Sunny's top speed has gone, as I know his new car will blitz 180, so it's better to have somebody else's record to beat.

Christian's car goes well AGAIN

Congrats to paul - still remember his line at national day - "oh yes the record is mine" LOL.....

oli had quite a few problems, loosing arches and belts....only spoke to him for about 30 secs and said needs some more work...

155.7 was the top - not bad really, beat the last one but didn't do as well as expected, 2nd Ever top speed run beat the last time and the next the time before so its all in development and we have some data to go on now as the cam was never tested prior to event so on wards and upwards....or it might just be it.

Oli said he never really got any chance's at other timed runs 1/4 etc dur to problems

Engine is solid still tho

Christian never a got a chance to do another run, as they think the MAP sensor has gone down, as the fuelling has now gone rich all over the place, so rather than risk running again without the correct mixture , they have called it a day and are now driving home .

However, on the day in question, 161 beats 155 in my book . Not bad for a 1.6 that still hasn't been finished (new injectors and inlet manifold still not fitted). And as ever, Oli was a total gent and was all day (according to both C&B - in fact B said, and I quote: "Oli's lovely" :eek - watch out Christian ). Shame Oli's No.1 supporter doesn't know how to chill - hello Dingle .

Fair play to that black fester!! Can only imagine what 180 must feel like in one! Awesome result. Has it got a funky gearbox??

Well done Christian too. Wicked top speed.

Very gutted for Tony
Lots of time and money has gone into that car, making it, for me, the best RST out there at the mo.

Do hope he and APT can sort it

Although I do think Christian must of sabotaged it as deep down he knew it would beat him

Mental speed for that fiesta , rather him than me lol
Christians time is a gooden aswell
