    cheers mate, yea its hard achieving those times without LSD and launch control.. there are images and videos on the images section, ive put my phone on the steering wheel and recorded my first run (14.3).. have a look how sh*t my launch was..

    my mates got a mk2 fezzy with 200bhp and he couldn't put the power down yesterday, he should of got 13's but only broke into the 15s! astra vxr's was doing it in 18s, so track conditions obviously wernt the best

    Sold it July 2009. Had just a Purple Mazda 2 for a bit, bought another place, rented out the other, now got a blue Boxster S.

    I was the first to take the piss re hair dressers car etc, but we did test drive every roadster going, and it was the best, most connected driving experience. Plus it makes a lovely noise. Fairly rapid. Quicker than the Exige 0-100

    If you have high power and a bad launch you will get faster terminals, you will find that a good launch will bring down the terminal speed. all my good times come with near 2.2 60 foot times and the best with 2.19 60 foot.

    I ran 13.5 on an normal diff and road tyres using a 50 shot of nitrous, that was on top of a rolling roaded 193hp seb 4.1. 220hp should put you into high 13s 250hp should be in the mid 13s easy.

    peter, was that 13.5 run in santa pod or else where?

    so, 2.44s 60ft is quite bad? looking at my first run (14.3) if i could do a better launch and not miss 4th am i right to say i can see mid 13s?
