Some of you guys may have seen this on the uk site. For people who dont know the car, it got flooded under about 12m of river last year and this is the second time Ive driven it since. Its a circuit car but theres no track events till the 20th so off to the drag strip
The carbon fender looks pretty bad up close. At a distance its alright though. Ive still only done 1 so it looks a bit wierd.
Anyway, I Dyno'd the car @ the gold coast on tuesday until late into the night. Ended up with 242hp @ 18psi on a safe circuit tune. After starting work ridiculously early and not getting any sleep for the last 2 days, I had one of those "f**k it" moments on wednesday and decided to head to the track as the car was already loaded on the trailer from the dyno. Still in circuit trim we changed tyres @ the track and reeled off pretty consistant 11.4's @ around 123mph before popping the rear quarter glass off the car after about 5 runs. Zuboo was nice enough to help out on the dyno for many long hours and still came back to help last night and even manned the camera. Big thanks to Zuboo for all the help.

should have some more vids up soon. I got a couple in car but I dont know how they turned out.
With no setup going into the car I was pretty happy with it. Hell, it hasnt even had a wheel allignment in over a year.
Cheers
