    Cheers.

    In the end, I thought to hell with the gearbox and held it at full throttle while still on the brakes!

    Think I may be able to just sneak into 14s with some cam tweaking and no back seats!

    Now, to get Ray the 460 through in under 16...

    Hmm... Addictive, all this mallarchy.

    I've added your time Nathan it was great racing you, the green bitch can gets away well as you found out, your comment about you though you had a fast car is still correct, just a few are faster, now you will be champing at the bit for new upgrades and we look forward to racing you again soon.

    I tried a power start in my s70r auto once, but it felt like i was torturing the car so i didn't do it again............and that was only at 1500rpm, so can't imagine what it would be like at full throttle.

As it idled at 450rpm and seemed to hesitate from there until 1000rpm, so i held it at 1000 then let my foot off the brake...............it just sat there spinning its wheels, going slightly sidewards, while claymore disappeared into the distance lol
