I was thinking the same thing Mark. I'm going to try a few different techniques at Heathcote so see what I get. I know the 2.20 I got was not stalled up to the max, IIRC it was only about 1500rpm and a slight bit of wheelspin off the line to get the revs up well.
I keep looking at the 92.5mph run I did and shake my head because I know thats a hell of a lot faster than a 15.0, its got to be the first 60" killing me.
