Yep I did have a play with it prior to going today. Anyway I didn’t use today and have a whole load of excuses:- there was strong headwind; it was too cold and the track never warmed up and neither did my tyres; too much heat soak in the queues.

I did a really rubbish 12.8 @ 110 mph and that was my best of the day. My 60 fts were 1.8 but conditions were not right. I went up to 1.4 bar max and didn’t see any point in going the extra 0.1 bar that my setup would allow. I haven’t dragged for three years so that may have been a factor.

Pretty disappointed really. Nothing broke though and the car feels mighty on the road just rubbish on the strip - for the moment.

I think an RD350 would be pretty slow too. I did see someone on a GPZ500S like I have and that was slower than my 12.8.
