Well done guys... I would've liked to have joined you all but unfortunately work comes first at this time of the year. I may have to give her a run in the new year and she what she's got.

Well done what was the touque? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yeah it was awesome fun and DAMN they were loud!! I might try post a pic of my sheet at some point, I've scanned it. But I had around 325 NM for pretty much the entire rev range. Oh and we don't know what revs we make the power at, just the wheel speed for 3rd gear (well, 3rd gear for the N/A's anyway.) My graph stops at 160km/h. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
