I've hear SHER1F ran 8.94 @ 156 from a reliable source. Well done Johnny, you've got your 8. I'm sure there will be more to come in the future, if not tomorrow! Good luck. Must mention Justin too, can put an engine together hey. Good work all round.

The red vl is my car. I was happy enough to get there and run let alone run a new PB. The only dissapointing part was the 8.7 is truly not a indication yet of what it can run. I had some stability issues on that run and the log showed two big pedal jobs so will run a lot quicker soon. The final run i did we seemed to have sorted the stability issue but I had spent so long on the start line I aborted the run as my transmission temp guage was crying in pain and I knew i had red lighted so it rolled through for a 9.0 at only 98mph.... All the incrementals were better then he 8.7 run to half track.
Must thank Mark and the Guys at Godzilla Motorsport for putting in a huge effort this week getting my car to the track and with tuning the Vipec V88( We only got it fired up at 3am friday morning)
Also Kyle and the guys at 6boost.com for getting the turbo setup done for me in time. Hopefully be back out to run some low 8s

Here is a update matty lisle ( mr enforcer ) driving lairdys car ( graphic skills racing) put the car into the wall at around 160-170 mph.
We didn't know what had happened cause we couldn't see from the start line. Got down the other end and it wasn't pretty
