Despite several days of almost continuous rain, decided to go down to the Champion Dragway at Meremere anyway this morning. Man, was that start line like ice or what? First time I've ever managed to get the GT4 to spin its wheels in second gear! Very damp surface to add the the usually crap start line area anyway. No VHT laid down as the meet wasn't important enough
Not very good conditions for good times - especially with the car as is - ie, spare wheel/jack in boot, road tyres, etc.... Still, everyone was in the same boat 14.480 isn't anything to shout about, but given the conditions and as it was the 4's first trip to the strip, can't complain And yes, before someone points it out - I was asleep at the start Gary -------------------- 1994 ST205 Celica GT-FOUR Group A WRC - running in new engine 1993 Rover 220 GTi tarmac rally car (under construction) 3SGE power here we come....

i'd say thats a pretty good run, especially considering the conditions, and the reaction timing. Man, cant wait till i get my 3sgte all finished =/.
