The car is still on it "safe" tune when it did not have many km's on it. After easter some time we will have to get it on the rollers again and see what it can squeeze.To get the technique right took a few runs. The car is so different when you need to launch it. Felt like the front of the car was lifting.I can tell you I have never felt my car move off the line so fast before.CheersAdrianF6 Ute and youngy used to put blocks in the rear....think it may have been another one of gramp's innovations! It may help but then again I thought you had a pretty good 60'. Safe is good, so is 11.6 :-) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/55848-waw-ver2/page/17/#findComment-858491 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firming up the rear is a good idea too. Nice Adrian.. Well done.I'll be there tonight - and possibly Friday if it goes well..

I would just slip - never ride.Bogging it down would nett better than a 2.6 wouldn't it??
