Yes mate will be sorted for then so hopefully with some practice I'll start to get somewhere with this drag game.

Are you going to be there?

2.5sec FWD Focus 145bhp. Not too bad imo I get off the line quick enough compared to cars that really should take off a lot better than I do but come 300-400ft I get left behind

Fair play, I've done quite a few just car never gripped enough to get that kind of time. Tried every kind of launch with it.
