[QUOTE=SCOOTER;481747]11.9 with a T25, damn them slicks must have some serious grip. I'm running a GT2540 and have so far only managed 12.6 with wheel spin in all of 1st, all of 2nd and most of 3rd!!! LOL[/QUOTE]

That was back in 2005 by the previous owner. At the time motor magazine was testing a brand new 911 Porsche and the rolla beat it by a fraction of time. 911s 11.99 and rolla 11.95. Will post page from the magazine with my car featured by the editor at the time.

Yes, a t25 but hiflowed which was better than just a stock one obviously.

Will post up the time and the magazine article

Is that on street tires or full slick compound?
With full slicks you shouldn't have much wheel spin...
what size tires were you running?

Cheers to all for the kind words :)

That is a narrow tyre with a lot of power. Guessing it's a semi slick than. Not bad time with all the wheel spin you had. Good luck with your new time with wider rubber.

comon mate :)
have to wait till I'm home than I'll post up pics from when it was stripped to where it's put together now. Stay tuned.

wish I could get airbags but this is a 70's era, got to leave it old school.
Roll cage will be done once I crack the 10 sec bracket, but at a later date no rush for that. Plan is to do a 10 in street trim and if I get kicked out which is most likely, I will at least know what's it capable of and work my way if I want lower numbers, ten is overkill anyways.
lol, that's why Im scared now how it's going to handle the extra power.
But still it's a little safer than a motorbike.

You said that the other day mate, buy a GPS :p

Only joking and wasnt privy to your work/living arrangement :thumbsup:

Oh and that iPhone comment previously was based around the joke your mate said to your brother whilst filming. Something along the lines of

Brother Says 'I'm going to send this footage to the police'
Mate Says 'He's your brother'
Your Bro Says 'Its alright, fuck my brother'.

;)

haha, all good champ.

I wanted to smack him one for that comment, disrespectful prick. :p
Showed my previous plates aswell. If police have seen it tough luck for me I guess.

We've all done stupid things, live life once only.
