This was a run without the nos, first run of the day to warm up the transmission before 'going for it' unfortunately I fried the clutch on the next launch after I let the tyres down to try and stop the wheelspin off the line.
12 hr roundtrip for one run
Still, it's a new UK record for no Nitrous

660 miles round trip, give or take a 1/4 or so

This is an awesome bit of kit - seeing it break 10s for a standing quarter mile at TOTB really was bloody special...
