Been racking my brains why they got bad times even in the V6's... The best time of the day was 16.1. They are Very quick cars and should do better than ....at least in the 15's i realise now that the launch is important and anyone who knows the V6 vec will realise that in 1st they are pretty tame till you hit 2nd and the gears are so long that when you cross the line you'd be in the very low revs of 3rd gear so the only decent gear you get on the strip is 2nd... therefore knocking around a second off what you'd expect... What do you reckon?

slow off the line cos they are heavy, give them a rolling start and they would be quicker than a lot of cars that beat them up the quarter mile.
