Absolutely spot on. No dramas what so ever, and the crunching / grinding noise when going round right hand corners has gone.

Thanks agin for your help mate on such late notice.

Midvale was good fun mate. Once I got my head around the dangers of the trees and curbs that are everywhere it was awesome fun.

So gave the track another run down the strip tonight. I took around 70kg of weight out of the car plus I had my coils & plugs changed as the car had a miss fire. So with another tune from Warick, he managed 340 hp and 436 nm.

My best time tonight was 12.33 @ 109 mph, which I was pleased with but not happy. I ran the Federal RS-R tyres and it seems either they are really slippery without heat in them, or the track was not prepped right, because I just kept spinning all 4 wheels. Other people did mention that they were also spinning their tyres too, which makes me think it was the track, not the tyres. No matter what I did it would just not hook up properly off the line.

Videos of the 12.33 run tonight

12.3 @ 109mph with a 1.8 60' is brilliant!

Is WAW open next week? Always good to go down after a big meet (jet cars on Monday) as the track is prepared better for them.
