well I'm chearing, I decided to give a Honda s2000 a run for it's money and I came out ontop. Beat him by half a car length. Though my gear changes weren't 100% I still managed to beat him. He was on his ownand I had 2 guys and I had a tank full of BP ultimate.

Sorry mate either the S2000 driver wasnt giving it or he can't drive manual. I know what S2000's go like because my brother had one, and if it was a proper run the S2000 would've had you for sure.

ive hit 108 kw with my vl after anthony maatouk tuned it. exhaust all the way back from extractors and running through a manual box. Since then ive put a k&n filter tray in the box. Felt like a bit more power but probebly not much
