Default BA GT Runs a 10
After a couple of 11.0's i got my 10 sec pass

I ran a 10.7@127mph with a 1.61 60ft with full exhaust,pump fuel and full weight on street slicks and FULL weight,It was the first and only pass of the night as i got booted because i dont have a roll cage which was a shame as i feel there would have been a 10.5 in it but i will have till wait untill i head down to Melb in september

The car is a MKII GT Auto sedan,mods are a Capa Vortech V2 NON intercooled supercharger,Nos,X-Force exhaust,3000 stall converter and CV Performance fuel system,motor is COMPLETELY std with std gearbox and diff,

Does that mean your gearbox has not been beefed-up? How does it cope with all that torque?

Well done mate, shame about the cage tho. Will they let you back in if you don't run the gas, if the car is hooking up fine save it till your last run then give it a hit.
