I'm back! YEEEEHAAAAAA!

I am so over the moon, I might not get back to earth in a while.

I had two runs tonight...

First run.
13.890@98.07mph 60ft=1.917

Second Run.
13.870@98.56mph 60ft=1.933

I left it after that, as I achieved what I wanted tonight and that was get into the 13 second club.

Big thanks to Chris@Bluepower and Craig@ACE, you guys are legends I would not have got this time without your help and support (and Craig's tyres).

Thanks everyone who has replied, I love being part of the AFF community.

You would not believe the smile I have on my face.

Here are my vids...

Thanks guys

I didn't see you either, it was just starting to get busy before I left. 30 minutes between runs is not too bad there though, plus it gives your engine and transmission a chance to cool down. Heathcote on a Sunday is much better, you have all day and can get lots of runs in, that's where I learnt.

Thanks guys, I owe a lot to Chris and Craig, what they don't know about drag racing probably isn't worth knowing.

My word that's impressive! Congrats mate.

So what was done to achieve that time? You mentioned no backseat.

Thanks Kenaz,

Well, no lower back seat, I didn't know how to get the upper back part of them out, so they stayed in. Ripped out the passenger seat. Ran on slicks and front runners. The rest of my mods are in my sig. My previous PB 14.21, was run on MT streets and with full interior.

Thanks Mark,

Yeah, I love the old school look, probably the closest I will ever get to a set of Centerlines. I would drive with those rims on all the time if I was allowed.
