Hi Cliff, yeah saw most of your runs, some good hp there but....whats with the hook ups mate, looks like your driving off the line first 20ft or so and then in comes the power and nailing it?, was it spinning up?

First ever go on the strip 16.3 was the best, but I have found a hole in my new inlet manifold

so surely should have gone faster

Beat Mark with his 2.3 second reaction time, allowed me to watch him in my mirror but I knew he'd be first between us to creep into 15's

Which he did, with a manual gearbox to learn with

well done. To be honest I wouold have been happy to take a couple of minutes to roll up the strip and pose

What is your mph at the top end?
1.8 is not too bad for a car on street tyres; my guess is that its a horsepower issue and slicks may not help - in fact it may make it worse.

Also what rpm are you turning through the traps?
