so hard to get our cars off the line.

mph is going to be a better indication of how quick it is rather than et.

114mph on low boost is great mph, if you could crack 120mph that would be awesome!

60ft was 2.123 lol :)

It was good fun so will probably be back some time. Would be sick to get a hold of some street radials and raise the back of the car so I can get a proper launch :) one day lol

yeah would help a bit having a softer rear end with more travel.

Could def im prove times if you get your 60ft time down a bit, you could shave at least half a sec off your time. Were you frying them off the line or was the car bogging down at all?

Any vids? :)

Unfortunately no vids. I was bogging at the start then I tried to launch a little bit harder and it just spun :p

I didn't know where I put my go pro but turns out it was behind my seat the whole time haha :p
It was good fun though. Would be interested to see what better tires and a harder launch with softer rear end and more boost got me lol. Would be cool to have an 11sec car :)

Yep same thing happened with my bros car, try and milk it off the line and bogs down hard, try and launch it and its like bakers delight only because of where the powerband is on the car. Something with a smaller turbo would be more forgiving off the line
