Yes I saw the Nova do its 2.8 run, (and its 3.1 too) what a launch! Also saw the Sumo Evo do 3.2 and the Fensport Corrola a 3.49 run.

It would also have helped you if the Calibra hadn't dumped a load of water on the ground shortly before your run. That can't have been good for grip.

I saw the Nova do the 2.8 run, what sort of power is that thing running, must be good for ¼ mile runs...

Did anyone see the 106 in the paddock area with an engine in the boot? Not sure but I guess he had one in the front also unless he convinced peugeot to do a rear wheel drive just for him!

Wonder what power that had? - couldn't see the owner about to ask.

The Nova was running about 650bhp so I heard with twin turbo engines. Also heard of a Gti-R doing 3.7secs.

The times were somewhat incorrect though, towards the end of the day people were holding back from the beem, like always at Trax, so I wouldn't read into them too much.

Cool

Well done CatFlap

We watched it for a bit, and even from back on the bridge it was obvious the cars were starting from all over the place, accuracy was not the order of the day.
