Are you joking... about 3clock most people start to go home and then they open it to anyone... Me and Ricky Youll got in about 15 runs between 3 and 5... Its double quiet...

The cheapest place we could find tbh Shell

Its the Quality Hotel in Northampton, we've stayed there for the last 2 years.

£45 for the night, and a really nice pub just down the road from it

[luca]

What a classic name

Quality!

I've got Proxy's on the front at the moment but will prob put my slicks on...

Proxys just run them about 20psi and the slicks i run at 8psi...

Luke... if you have a jack there and wheel gun your more than welcome to borrow my slicks for a couple of runs... i wont be using them all day

shell what you doing to the engine this time lol, its fast enough as it is

New rear housing, new intercooler and a map...

Never had it mapped before just MSD have just stuck me loads of fuel in to make it safe

ive always run 10-15psi on my 888s
BF GOODRIDGE 205/50/15 drag radials are the best street legal tires for drag racing tho

[Shell]

I ran my road tyres at low low pressures few years back... left santa pod down those lanes... came to turn and coulnt cos i forgot to pump them back up... D'oh so i dont like to run my road tyres at too low... just in case
