i was taking it easy on the launch, and got a 12.8 @111 mph
i saw a green wagon with a red bonnet do a 12.7 on sunday, i spoke to him on sat night, and he had basic mods, fmic, filter, exhaust. but his launch was spot on and his gear changes!

My two best runs where both 12.13....one with ET @ 110.39mph and the other @111.32 mph......both with 1.6 60ft ....... consistent i suppose....
Was hoping to better the 11.9 from last year.....
We had a great turnout at the type ra stand...

I was there, didn't go down the strip though.
Anyone else see the classic WRX blow his gearbox on the start line? Poor f*cker.

The BABS stand was funny, it was the only one with 'don't touch the cars' signs, which, for me was like reverse psychology and made me want to!
Nice 22B
