Re: My Newish Car
Sounds supercharged, my understanding is turbo's are not supposed to whine like that.

With that much power it might as well be supercharged.

Re: My Newish Car
wobbly i take it u mean it looked like a good take off so my 60ft time, dunno didn't get the time slip because they towed me passed the box and didn't stop lol. I was giving my mate shit cos i reckon even though i blew the car up i probably still ran a faster time than him haha that was my best launch of the night too so it probably could've been a low 11 too ohwell next time out will be aiming for 10s if all goes to plan lol
