Post by: spankier on 04 May 2010, 17:40

managed a 14.9 second pass at 92.7mph on sunday at santa pod on sunday in my mk2, plus another 4 runs below 15seconds.

2litre 8v, head ported by me, k-jet buggered about with by me, stripped/lightened by me, copies of the peloquin friction rings made and fitted to diff by me, pump fuel, n/a, no nos, eagle f1 road tyres. phew!
