hi everyone..
thought Id let you all know...
my CA has just done a 10.8 @ 136mph
we believe its a new European record...

we should be quicker next year when we fit uprated driveshafts after
snapping 4 last time out (too much grip off the line for standard ones)

cheers Tony..

strange the link works for me????

initially the engine was built by Norris Designs but we have had it
stripped twice and rebuilt it twice ourselves..

I love the headlights, should weight a lot less than the stock ones with the motors and lever arms.
