I'm guessing at someone thinking 'sh1t, camera, must flee'... ;)

Lol yes I did run out of the way because you know I hate getting my pic taken, but oh no that didn't stop you did it, lol ....... :D

Nice one Dave,

This was 1st time I have taken a car on the strip. My fastest time of the day was a 14.804 92.67mph which isn't bad for a stock 172 (bar panel filter).

I finally broke 15 barrier in the afternoon just after they dried the track.
I saw J3ned's car do a 13 which was impressive and the KTec run a low 13.

Cheers

Maz, you've lost a 'Z' ??

Lost Z and A actually ;) lol

Wanted maz as my username when I first signed up as a forum user on the old forum but it said I couldn't have it for some reason...

Roamer has now changed it for me :D

Very impressive time mate for a panel filter! Mine can't be running right surely! :S (saying that, my tires could have done with losing a few psi apparently).

Yes Maz! i'm guilty. :D

Thanks Dave. I saw the other cup do a 14.0.

I didn't know it was your first time as well. Well Done dipping into the 14s.
That's a great time.

I think I need some mods to get into the low 14s.

Cheers

  '18 Megane dci
One of mine was with it on (not the fastest), the rest were with it off, prefer it off to be honest mr edt.

Thats ok Mike, yeah I did get the car on the strip yesterday but my times wern't anything to write home about cause it was my first time (drag strip virgin) ;) lol and the car was carrying far too much weight (e.g full fat, Ice etc) just wanted to try it to see what it was like and I did so I am well pleased with myself and it was a right good day :)

Who was the guy in that blue clio that got 16.3 secs?

I was there in my Blue Valver, first time at the pod and enjoyed it. best time of the day for me was 15.920 in my standard bar de-cat valver.
Think it would of been quicker if i didnt have 1/2 tank of fuel lol.
