That's a very good time for your vehicle with minimal mod's ORSMXR, especially considering the heat up this way today, is your's a manual or auto?.

mmmm.....My Man Machine Interface needs sacking severely!!!!!;)
Before I start ORSMXR....were you car 263? as I have got home and have looked at my timeslips...I was near last to leave and picked up an extra timeslip from the pile in the out tray. This one is a 13.85 at 102.51. also 35.2 degrees I couldn't better Mr ORSM's times but my car comes home well!!! 104.02mph... The best I could do was a 13.88 at 103.12...Kiwi a 13.80 at 104.63. Have to work out how to launch the thing! After lunch I didn't want to get out of the cool car so just kept going round and round!!! Good fun....roll a night meet! Now where do I go and practice these launches???!!!! motomk Last edited by motomk; 10-01-2005 at 12:03 AM. |

Actually, I think what Chris means is to head to calder and heathcote as often as possible to gather as much practice as possible - Im sure Mr Orsm and all other members will contribute to safe driving on our roads.
Practice makes perfect. |

Finally a colder day at heathcote for me and ran a PB of 14.8 (see sig) with a 60' time of 2.1
(Previous 2 times at heathcote for me have been in 40° heat and a 15.2) ORSMXR the quad exhaust tips look awsome on the back of your car.
