There's going to be alot of egos dinted in the 2010 drag season and prob by cars they have already written off even coming close to them i.e. 4E powered cars.

I'm fully expecting an asswhoopin at some stages lol!

dont think so, daily driver, just hope having a wee run at it, and getting beat by faster equipment and better drivers wont give me the drag addiction lol

will have to get up and see you for a wee run in your motor some night ted, maybe sort something with the shifter too.

@spuddy will the MR2 be ready for next season?

If it's dry u can use my spare 888s.

The outting in Feb is usually a practice with no points and snow

The MR2 will be running in March prob around 300hp, April 360hp and July on should be 500+

My thoughts exactly lad.

Going to try and win Class2 and Class3 in 2010.

Will be interested to see what Weejohn has planned for his car, or is it all topsecret?

not just that, problem is the evo launches so well, its made for quarter mile and the fact that if you spend 3 grand on one you can have an 11 second car its too easy! (northern ireland times-we dont bullshit!)

even compared to subarus its a different world, the ai500 2 door type r didnt catch me til third gear, evo would have been gone!

The standard box can handle over 600hp, good old Toyota at it again lol! 100mph in 3rd should be grand similare to the GT

Oh yes, going to be the first wheelie at the court! There'll be a serious brown stain on the seat after that though!

The car's going to be mental! We're just having a delema now in deciding to take it to the original 600+hp or just take it to 500hp, MR2 blocks have a tendency to split in half!

you have the banzai mag with the fastest mr2 in it>? i have it somewhere ill look it out for you, some details in there about the block threshold. though if i remember right he has split a few, and i went something like, "you can get lucky, and get a strong block or not"

lol so yeah i hope you have a strong block. heres to hoping

as for the offer of the 888's, that would be great, i wont turn something like that down!
