This is first round with hector taking the win,60 ft was down on the 9.33 and that pretty much did it,was still happy to go this well in the heat of the day and it showed the 9.33 wasnt just fluke,that the car should do it regularly now  cheers richie,uk

Fantastic! 9.28 in a full chassis'd trailered race car against your street ride convertible 9.40 with carrying the roof! Its still more amazing the more I look at it and just realize what you've accomplished.
