I went down like 3 weeks in a row trying to get my launches down and my tyre pressure right! Pretty crazy the first time you line up for your very first run... best i could get was a 14.7, that was when i was running 200hp at the wheels...

Yeah there is a bit of an art too drag racing , but more practice an you should see some more consistant times. Then every time you do something find out how much quicker it is etc etc. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Cheers mate it's a lil bit faded but next year Im Gona. Get the interior re done in red leather with silver stiching will be costly but it's part of the family lol tax money is getting used to upgrade my hot side and a retune hoping for around 400hp so if anyone knows where I can get gt3540 for a good price let me know
