ive heard your scoobys a bit nippy;) surely enough to justify a place?
ive been practicing my launches (with the diff LOCKED:D) :D on paper mine does a 4.3 standard, but with mods hopin for a bit less!
managed a 4.5 at a 0-60 event last year in my old uk scooby but the type r feels much faster...
Rannoch 23 April 2004, 18:36 I might go along if the gearbox is back in!
Needed to reattach fifth to the shaft!!
Rannoch :D:D
PS I don't think it is low 2s, but into the 2s!!
