I have a vid of your car smoking it down the straight against that 'raddo Gaz. I'll compress it to be more 56k friendly and upload it. I'll do the same to the jet car vid too.

The times come as no surprise, a loosened up 16v engine will put out loads more than 139bhp, even a standard one.
They are a lot quicker than people think  ;)
