Well done, excellent result. For that power it is an impressive 60' and mph.

Must have been a wow of a ride.

Yeah same here. But driving a manual turbo with that much power would be a bloody handful I'm guessing. Well done.

It would be interesting to see what you've done to achieve that much power from the XR8, never knew you could squeeze them...

Cheers.

That must have been a real handful to launch. 2.1 is still not a bad effort. I know with some slicks you'd probably get a 1.7 60 and easily get an 11 but for a full weight, full street trim manual XR6T with "only" 320rwkw thats a great effort.
