Default went santa pod last sunday

as above me n a mate took our saffs to the pod, were both stage 1 but his has 10bhp mre than me at 280bhp. wat would be good times for 270/80 bhp. i had crap tires on mine and my best was 14.1 my mate had toyo's and got 13.8 so are these times good average or poor lol.

keep in mind this was our first time i thought we done ok

both good times in my opinion. especially for a first time!

what terminal speeds you running should be hitting 100+

are you 4x4 or just well maintained 2wd?

13.2 isnt impossible, but very unlikely...

how did you find it anyway? getting good gearchanges? changing gear at the right times? how was the launch? too spinny? bog down?
