Unfortunately theres no video of the 14.2 @ 100.9mph, but I can post the link to the website for the times if anyone doubts it lol.

However, here's another run to show you what a 14.5 run in the car looks like, we got another 0.3 off of it later on, largely due to a better start and 2.3 60ft as opposed 2.5

Me driving Jacqs S40 T4 vs a m8 of mine in a 218 bhp, 207 lb/ft Rover Coupe Turbo

S40 T4 vs Rover Turbo
60ft 2.53 vs 2.72
ET 14.58 vs 15.59
TV 100.2mph vs 97.2mph

Neither cars best showing off the day, The Rover was 14.6 on its best run and as above the Volvo got 14.2 by the end of the day.

Glad you like it.

Next time I'll try and get a hold of a camera of my own to take and video all of the runs so we can post the fastest one.

No, neither is, neither car had its fastest run of the day in the video either. 14.5 vs 15.5 in the video, 14.2 vs 14.6 overall on the day.

The Rover is up 21 bhp and 33 lb/ft over a standard car, running a bit more boost than standard, de-cat,custom wider diameter exhaust, thats all I think, it's not my car just someone I know.

Jacqs T4 has an MBC @ 16psi (13 standard), de-cat, cone filter, and most likely a remap of unknown origin going by rr results and performances.

So, Volvo is 236 bhp, 266 lb/ft, Rover is 218 bhp, 207 lb/ft, and the Volvo is 200kg heavier than the Rover.
