Default ORSMXR showing serious potential!

Just spoke to ORSMXR, he ran a 13.18@108.84mph 1.97 60' at calder tonight, huge mph .
Last week at heathcote I watched him run me down even after I put .2 on him at the start.
He,s letting the car cool down for another pass PB looking good at this stage.

Mind you he's done this on street tyres, orsm driving dude.

Congratulations to Mark on Club 12, and a big congrats to ORSM on his 13.1. An outstanding effort considering the 3.46 diff gears and street rubber.

I didnt see any doubts, all those areas you have suggested all help.
As for the tyres who really cares anyways.. As the first posts says "Street Tyres" would they be the usual opted run of the mill tyre for the street??
It doesnt matter, still a goodtime and great effort

It's a great time and getting better all the time.

I personally don't care if it was run with slicks and race gas, I beleive you should use the best tool available to do any job. It's just that the other post reads like it was an easy achievment because of different tyres.

Hey I said Good.[Yes should have said good time].Nitto's are known to be good drag street tyres...
I'v bought some mot radial slicks and they do make heaps of difference...Well over a second gain..Latter model irs suspensions seem to get power down much better..Taking nothing away from the time done..
