Maybe change plates and get booted again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even told the guy I would just do a half track run if he let me go again of course I would have gunned it again but he would not have a bar of it. Really don't want a cage. It's my family car. I left the line at 2700-2800 footbrake only. No handbrake at all. Don't have a boost gauge so not sure what boost. It feels fn quick though. 60 foot is starting to get up with the big drag V8's now. I really think I can do a sub 1.45 60 foot. I had a good launch but far from perfect run. I short shifted into 3rd and 4th also so time to be had. Did not want to go near my limiter and ruin my run but probably a bit over cautious. Also had a very strong headwind last night but overall no complaints. Got my 9. Such a great feeling when you reach a goal you set. Now to move the goal posts 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant believe no boost gauge arent u at least a little intrested to see the boost off the line lol Looks like calder has paid off good choice steve I take it the track was perfict last night What kind of tempreture in the air ?

Hopefully full boost took the run as I don't know anyone there that did. Thanks for all your comments guys and another special thanks to Nizpro. Their service and tuning ability is clearly very strong. Watch out for more quick cars out of their stable with bigger turbos than my little 35. Just goes to show you don't need a massive huffer to run quick times. Air temp last night was around 15 degrees. Track was ok but started to go off during my full run compared to my practice run an hour before. As soon as sun goes down Calder track gets way harder to get good grip.
