lol, we'll jacqs being a bit modest

Best 60ft you did was 2.49, so 2.5, yet still managed a couple of 14.1's with good terminals, and it was still wheelspinning after the 60ft mark as well, so to still be getting 106mph by the line takes a good bit of grunt, which from first hand experience of the car, it definately has lol, not bad for a first day out IMO.

Was raining intermitantly throughout the day, and when it did dry up for a bit it will have been cold and greasy, plus first runs in 2 years for you and first launches ever in the car on that engine/gearbox/diff/cutch

Easily a 13 second car with no worries as it is now, and still got stuff to come, more practice as well, so we'll see what develops
