It'll be interesting to see how this guy gets on though. If he has similar suspension set up to mine, which in truth is quite basic. He would have around 50bhp more than me and bet his boost comes in with more of a punch.
Would be fun though, I hope he has a soft rev limit because I would guess that's where he would spend most of time lol

But you did say that you weren't sure whether to take your car to the Performance Ford Thrash incase you had a repeat version at Brunters.
You have a very fast car there. Use it to it's full potential
