All of Blacky's times were consistantly over 100 mph she was just let down by a poor driver lol

That's because roughly speaking the ET (the time it takes) is a reflection of acceleration acheive i.e. the torque whereas speed is more a reflection of the power achieved. At least it sort of makes sense in my head.
Anyway come Sunday - we'll see if my ETM repair has made things better or worse. (I suspect the latter).

Frankies unmapped scooby is lower on power but would get off the line quicker due to 4wd, hence the fast time but low terminal.
Grey 855R Manual. Totally standard.

I finally got to have a go, my other attempt to get there last month ended in a failed diff and gearbox before I even go to Shakespeare. It was nice to meet up again inc the homeless man again
I only managed 3 runs in the day at 14.1 111MPH, 14.0 113MPH and 13.2 117MPH. I'm looking forward to going again, I don't think I'll stop over as the sight of a homeless man teabagging might not be the best lol.
