Dunno sorry.
*edit*
I found some times from USSC 2011 when i was on road tyres...
Best 60ft was 2.187, not too bad for a WW2 runway with no grip...

my best was 2.2.. thats on a proper strip with A048's. I'd image your under 2 now??
It just goes to show it doesn't matter what power you have got, most important is getting it off the line or you are just playing catch up!!
Im happy with my 12.7sec though, to say its built for track and not drag racing/sprints.

Well i was more than happy with the way the car performed at FCS, the car pulls hard and the brakes are just awesome 
Really annoyed i was black flagged 3 times for noise so had to keep off the throttle on certain parts of the track. Im going back to the drawing board again with the exhaust, hopefully 3rd time lucky!.
Was really good to meet some new people and put faces to some names 
Here is some pics of the car on track (thanks to nicole)

Nice to see in you drag run the other person didn't overtake you  (assuming there was another person there?)
This car is a real gem mate, retained the standardness of it while making it absolutely rapid.
The engine bay made me jizz a little, wish mine looked as chromey/clean as that lol. Those rims look really good too, what are they?
Two thumbs up.
Do you have a 0-60 time for it?

Wheels are Rota Attacks, 1 of the lightest around in the size and fitment.

How did you manage to get the VVT to come in at 2.5k? Was that on standard pulleys? Thinking of putting an Omex600 on mine with R1 bike carbs with standard cams and VVT

Its switchable on the omex at any RPM, just need to switch it at the most suitable point. Im running standard pulleys, you can only change the exhaust cam on these engines which is pointless.

Time for a small update
Progress has been slow over the last few months due to building a new garage and workshop. Its been the main priority but will be worth it in the end
This was 5 weeks ago, its more or less finished now!.
Still managed to make a few changes to the car ready for a trackday at Cadwell. Temps were slightly high at donington (fcs) so ive made some air ducts from old headlights. I have also fitted a water intercooler spray which work really well. Its controlled manually at the mo but will eventually work out away for the ecu to work it.
A pic from Cadwell
Video
Really happy with the way the car performed, had loads of people come over asking questions. The highlight of the day was pushing a 530bhp new skyline out the way down the straight. I was waiting all day to have a play with it haha.
Had the car weighed aswell, came in at 816kg. Works out at 375bhp per ton
