Default Calder Park new PB

Took the XR down to Calder yesterday. What a turnout!! At one stage the cars had lined up all the way to the timeslip box. I got there early though, racing started at 3.30pm and we stayed till around 9.30.

Last time i went down it was around 19 degrees and last night the temps dropped to 9 degrees at around 8 oclock. The car reeled off a best of 13.286 @ 106.32 mph. 60ft time was 2.071 and the car was run in full street trim on my 18s. Was very happy with that time, dropped a quarter of a second off my previous PB.

My best NA time was 14.28 so with a little bit of good old centrifugal boost the car has managed to drop a full second and pick up 8.5 mph.

Also saw James (XHXRSIX) there with his turbo windsor, wicked sleeper. Anyone else from here there as there were quite a few Fords there?
