What do you think to that????
I think its pretty average!
LOL Its the business mate, I am more than happy now we know and can see what the thing is making. Crazy how much extra was gained!
Bring on the slicks!
More importantly though THANKS goes to JKM for all the bending over backwards during the build this year , fitting washers I left off (HA)and staying LATE when we all just wanted to give up really!

Not sure if i will get them in time tbh mate, its Autumn and the money tree has shed its load!
Will see though, if i did then m&h or Mickey T's I guess.
I have some drag radials though so can try these again.
