Got s few runs at Santa pod today and I can see why people are addicted to going just that little bit faster!
I was running it without launch control or anti lag and still have the turbo to replace but ran it anyway! Lol

13.22 was my best run however I did 13.24 with a passenger!
If I get a clean launch with slick gear changes I think I can get into the 12s

In car footage
Looking at matters abit more in depth I need to hold onto gears and sort out the launch!
And maybe turn the boost up alittle!

Looks brutal on the pickup when it grips!
In other news, who is the driver ? Looks like he's level 1000 at chewing gum!!!

Think you'll hit 12's no problem - I found launching the hardest part, always struggled to get used to the extra grip

What was next to you on the final run?
The fact it spins the wheels must make launch challenging.
It's all about practice and getting your reaction time down to 0.4 of a second.

The chewing was down to nerves.
It was pretty intimidating to say the least as I rocked up in my dirty mini with other cars being immaculate with race v8 engines! I just thought it would be a quiet rwyb event with not much there.
I just need the practise, but am already thinking of tuning mods!
