What's the story behind Andy's 3.6?
I assume it refers to engine size? What engine is it?

Gobstopper is effectively retired so no RCM this year, hope to have them back next year with their new car.

Stu, my car does not like corners And I am not allowed to run the other also

And I put all the bhps down not the team members, so just put the big ones down Though the handling only cars don't need it; i hope

600 is big for those that know how to use it Steve

Andy has run 9.99 on a previous spec (smaller turbos) at actuator pressure ! Latest spec is way, way over 800bhp !!!

Did the previous engine not have this sort of bhp too? With an extra Turbo and many moe cc's available i assume there is a lot more to come from this engine?

Evos look very strong, they will be the ones to beat. As for others we still await full line ups.

I have a feeling Andy has already run some serious times but is keeping quiet until he blows everyone away come TOTB with 8 second run.

Good luck to everyone :-)

Cant wait to go this year .
I wont be marshalling and directing the competing cars this year so will see more of it but downside dont get to sit on the start line for the final run that was such a buzz but almost blew my eardrums out with all the popping and banging.
