well done anthony all the hard work is paying off.
sounds like jambo has been a dream run.
THE MPH IS DOWN DUE TO THE LIMITER BEEN SET LOWER THAN IT SHOULD, HIS LIFTING THE LIMITER FOR THE NEXT RUN. SHOULD SEE EXCESS OF ABOUT 160+MPH AND HOPEFULLY 8.40'S

well it wont hit the low 7s as some predicted but to run 8.40s would be an effort nearly as good so hopefuly they can by raising the limiter.
8.67 at 155 mph with a 1.36 60 ft

25-08-08, 17:13 GMT+10#17 congrats on the times.. seen the car race over weekend and the manual sounds tuff a little hairy moment when both julian and anthony headed for each other.. Had a quick peek at the car in pits, looks good inside and under hood Also the weight of the car is a massive bonus.. good luck for 160mph.
