Default 1/4 mile times

Thought it would be good fun to run my98 impreza at Redline Rumble. I ran a 15.246 (didnt get traction) then a 14.508 and on my last run beat a supra to the line with a 14.821 and supra doing it in 14.825 was a good battle.. Any body who went may have noticed i was in the red classic with the Simpson Bandit helmet on which got a good mention.. Just thought id share this pointless information..

Glad to see an impreza came out top>>>>>>

I am going to run my T25 very soon a Santa Pod, hopefully I'll get into the low to mid 12's.

Great fun though isn't it

In my bugeye for one of my runs I was lined up against a caterham 7, he launched 2 seconds after me and finished a second and a half before me, so many great cars there to watch.

No bloody grip at all though!

You're probably right, the car maybe capable of doing that time, but I don't think I'm capable of giving it that much stick. Plus the grip there is nonexistent
