yes you can imagine how we felt but in the end it turned out to be our own fault we moved the nitrous injectors and it now needs to be much richer than we thought so before we realized we had several melt downs.Problem was the melt down happened so fast we never stood a chance of seeing,feeling or hearing anything till it was too late

And not a cheap way to go either!!!!!! Any stocks n Shares in Omega? 
Still, as I say, i have high hopes for you when its all running right. Although to beat Mr Nicholls and his 500bhp forced inducted drag slick times, u'll be hard pressed.
But as a home built, shopping trolly supercar chasing Corsa, we'll i'd be happy.
11.5 aim? Or faster (hope)?

them times that andy nicholls and the golf run (mid 10`s i believe)are not that far off when you consider the golf runs 11.8 on road tyres which we also run on road tyres we will have to see if the slicks can make that much difference to us this year
