Herman surprised many last month doing a 14.32 @ 101 mph

Didn't feel especially fast- but it won the class etc vs the Honda S2000s and Nissan SX200s and SKylines from the drift boys, and I don't know what I am doing here!

[quote="nas80"]isle of man is miles away .

you are right there!!!

not to mention some water as well-
still it was a long shot

the key to this drag racing IMO is to obtain that all important ticket which you should file away with your car docs
once it is done it is done!
