Chap I ran a 13.7 @103mph, skyline (not standard!) I ran with got 13.1 @109 so not too bad considering I had loads of wheelspin and detonation

I didn't have enough time to do more runs using 50:50 diff lock due to the miserable weather

Good fun though..

Think i saw you there, was gonna come over but was chatting to my mate in his Type R Civic, I had just blown him away, got me a 14.1 in a tek2 decatted uk turbo which I thought was about .2 off of what I could have got (wasnt aggresive enough with clutch but hey, it'll last longer), he got wheel spin through 1st and second and finish in 18.2 woulda thought he'd have backed off and get traction but noooo, just floored it!

He went again later after they'd dried the track (loooong wait) and got a 16.2 again, lots of wheel spin!

Was surprising, lots of supras getting high times because of track, a hell of a lot of spinning wheels there!

I only came over line at 97.8mph was gutted i didnt go mad with the start now, reckon i could have got a sub 14sec run! was watching the video back what my mate took and the car dips at the back but there was no punch to the start, oh well, i'll go back another time, perhaps I'll gate crash the RSOC one

Yeah - I was disapointed not to see any supras doing good times, thought there would be some big HP ones around but nope...

I'd be interested in seeing the videos if you can get them accessable on the web chap...

Also my mate was there and did a 12.8 in his westfield (1.2 reaction times though !!)

JFYI

reaction times dont make any relation to the terminal times!
Its purely to see how quickly you can react to the lights.
You could sit still for 10 secs and still do a 13sec 1/4

Not sure if thats what you were refering to , but just in case

Yeah, I understood the reaction time bit, we were just laughing at the people who took ages - seemed they where putting their seatbelts on, adjusting their mirrors etc..
