Mate i rarely come on here so if you have more to say to me ive got a pm and because i dont talk behind peoples back if you got a comment say it dont tell others and talk crap

All my comments are on here to see...I got no secrets and nothing to hide.....

You only posted in OzE to trash talk anyway and i think you may have a case of paranoia going on if you think I talk about you anywhere else

Trash Talk lol why would i need to trash talk to you lol . You were talking your car up like it was going to do certain thing and then when i pointed out what happen you started the name calling and started showing number (which means nothing on the track/). I laugh because you got so defensive about it.

You can have 180kw and still get beaten by a 155 car setup better . Its not always about the power of a car that wins on a track. Its the better prepared and setup cars that will win.

14's next time - easy - got the numbers just need the set up

First time at strip with car so not a big issue, i know what needs to be changed

On another note I have not seen a N/A 6cyl Eseries do 104mph at the traps - nor have i seen one do 102mph

Jim mocks red eb na did 100mph+. Just don't expect to do the same as that or swannys car. Motors are very different to yours in all honesty. Including being manual and being in a car that's 100kgs lighter.

Hey rosco
I have the time slips that say I do 102 mph x 3 on the weekend ....

It was the rubber that let me down .... Doing a longer and higher rpm skid got me better MPH as I was only spinning off the line but not spinning 2nd.

BLAHHhh
That Its over with now ... Dont need to many post Mortons .... There is another one in 2 mths time and I WILL be there with Slicks on to do 13s ....

And yeah paul has done a 14.1 (with a ************ 3rd ) so what .
I did a 14.29 last time i was at heathcote.

Considering that he has been doing this for many years.
