Might be going

Done a bit of work on a friends Seat Leon Cupra R so hoping he gets a low 12 if not an 11

He was doing high 12's last year but has at least another 100bhp this time round

Funny you say that as when I was at Pod last I popped my gear cable off the box about half way up strip.

Got out and my pumps literally stuck to the track I was like FUCK! thats sticky!!!..


Especialy when it feels like off the line its slippery.
