Was it overly busy? How many other marques came down?

Wish I could have gone!

We need a table of everyone's results to compare easily!

I personally found it pretty tuff getting the power down at the start, a couple of times I just spun and got terrible starts   :ashamed:

To much rev as not thatfamiliar with  launch control and it showed. That 14.1 I got I used the paddles in m mode.

Here's my result. Sh!t 60 ft as I can't seem to launch as well as Vtec (Ben). Best things are I achieved my target of under 14 seconds and over 110mph terminal speed. Also went up against Rupo off R32oc and nailed him :P

13.6 @ 110.75 mph with a 2.58 second 60 foot time in the wet is mighty impressive in my book  :happy2:
