    Does that mean that the jag didn't do a 14.7 1/4mile? I did wonder, as i'v always thought the x-type was pretty slow.

    no, the thinking was that it was the previous race's times its obvious its wrong look at the reaction times on the slip and compare against the video also it says the volvo was quicker to 60ft but was clearly slower

    Well at the end of the day my time doesn't matter against the jag as it still is a personal best for the non colour matching T5-R and i'll just have to try to hook-it all up again .... now theres a personal challenge that i'll enjoy trying to attain

    Plus my ticket says the jag was the winner with a 14.77 as i thought i must have jumped the start but watching the vid's i had a green light and was announced the winner .... oh well iffy timing but the camera rarely lies

    Thanks guys its was a great day and the banter has been great as well

    the battle will continue.......lol
