Wow! Was it a dud run?

That MPH is really low for a 380rwkw car.

Dont know really,

Had a couple of issues on the night with teh battery going dead flat and then an engine light coming on for the mixture being too rich so yeh probably wasnt making 380rwkw on the night.

Plus its the first time for me out racing this car so I am still learning how to drive it really. I have never raced a turbo / auto combo so it'll take me a little while to figure stuff out like how to get it too boost up at the start line which I couldnt get it to do all night.

We are going to have another look at what the tune is doing and I'll be back out again soon.

Your 11.75 run was done using Proxes R888 ?

yeah they are 4 years old and 235 wide, want them? ive been driving around on the street last few days and they are no better than the 19" maxxis...

the held the grip off the line fine, but I drove through wheelspin top of first gear a few times

That shows you how good Calder track prep is of late. R888 need to be warm to work good so they are not the ideal street tyre, but being 4 years old there probably long gone from being optimum.

Yeah miles better than heathcote, at heathcote I spin every time on the 1-2 change, then sometimes back off and then get back into it and then it spins on the 2-3 change!

Then I give it a squirt on the highway and it spins less damn it!
