9.04, 9.03...same same Car is a weapon mate...looks angry...like the rear wing too...
Agree re number of cars out there, I wasnt racing but fark, people pushing in etc...my brother waited over an hour between his 1st and 2nd run...wtf? He figured out if you wait at the hole in the wall you get through A LOT quicker...think he got 4 or 5 runs in. Good day though, perfect weather.

Lockie you gotta remember that mine and brendons cars are ss/bb cars and not street cars.
11-12 sec cars are Damn fast on the street. Half the big v8's are struggling to crack a 11.
Cheers Darren, I only got the 4 runs was waiting a hour between runs. Except that one run which was 15 mins as I get to line up in the comp cars lane on the track.
What did the other vls there run. Was a blue, white and group3t??
