ahhh - that beemer i did not want to embarass myself on the run from the line! It was fast. I am a reformed man when it came to launching my car until simon ragged it from the line so i had to do the same - i did a lot of runs so didn't want to do too many launches.Julesm wrote: I did get to run against Doug in the S4 but he took it easy off the line and I was long gone.....although it was good to watch him fly by at 190mph as on most runs I coasted home due to hitting the limiter at 155mph!!!

Just put a bit of footage of the day together, it's not brilliant, but gives a bit of a flavour of the day:

Yes, it was fun. Only wished I'd done a bit more filming on the day, especially of Doug's car. I think I had the camera in my hand but was chatting rather than filming when Doug's S4 blew my car into the weeds on the main straight. I blame my mate who was driving it!simon_golf_tt wrote:nice vid Jarv! Was a great day out, better than I expected.

You wouldn't have embarrassed yourself by the looks of some of your good launches. I knew straight away that you weren't trying so just tried to get as big a gap as I could before you came sailing by......Doug_S2 wrote:ahhh - that beemer i did not want to embarass myself on the run from the line!

Good to see the B5 doing well and with the current costs of them it is almost tempting to dip back in and go down the modding route you have.....
Get your name down for Fighting Torque 08 on PH when the official threads go up.....
