I was secretly hoping to have turned up but it's a bit far to travel without any guarantee of getting on.  :sad:

And I've also just had plans made for me for Sunday now.  :angry:

Anywaynended up there after 3points from a cu*nt in cambridge in an unmarked Saab in Brown! Arrived about 2:30,
 Basically dead to be honest just about 5 cars running, 1000bhp skyline and 2 subarus, A type 25 and some wagon and an Old Audi Quattro.
 Got to run just round and round with no que's.
 best run I managed 12.69, Terminal 106.91

The car ran low 12.7's consistently. And the track condition was pretty poor as they wernt using glue and it was pretty wet.

 Pretty happy with that, It'de have alot of high end cars sweating down the strip I bet. Expecting low 13's would of been v happy with 12.9 so all in all  :laugh:

Oh you got a ticket too huh.  I got hit for my window tint today was not given a prohibition on my car though.  Funny part was I didn't get done for the 80 in a 50 ( didn't realize that was a 50 zone till I was parked in front of a speed limit sign) I was trapping 107-110MPH in the 1/4 but my ET times were in the low 14's to high 13's could not get traction till I was in third gear no mater how hard I tried.  I made like 12 passes and nothing I did other than put it in stock mode allowed me any traction the entire track seemed really slippery to me.  I have spent the first 17 years of my life living with in 2 miles of a drag strip I have never had this much problems getting traction.  Even leaving traction control on I was getting the light all the way through third gear any one have any suggestions to get better traction?

Yeah f**k*r, Couldn't hide his delight at getting me, " Your in a powerful car there son you should no better, Im going to issue you with a fixed penalty notice, " f**koff you cu"nt im thinking.
 Did you try launching from 3rd or 2nd? Sounds basic,  Also I found the right hand lane much better than the left. Did 2 runs in right lane and they were both my best times. Obviously left lane is for posing with the stand haha, But seemed the right was for the speed.
 Also on a side note, they took the piss 2day mate, They wern't doing the track prep because it was 2 quite and wasn't worth the money like them spreading glue etc..  + They closed at 4, So I only got an hour n half 
Closed at 4, So only got like hour n half in. I got my printout ill upload it later
