I went on Saturday. Was well pissed off. Only got 3 runs and fucked every one of them up. The timing on Saturday was suspect too!
My best was 15.943 @ 87mph

I was in the Silver Corsa next to you I think. You and your mate in the MG were talking to me.
My times were...
1) Reaction - 0.799 / 60ft - 2.305 / 330ft 6.669 / 1/8 - 10.104 @ 70mph / 1/4 - 15.943 @ 87mph
2) Reaction - .660 / 60ft - 2.409 / 330ft - 6.718 / 1/8 - 10.212 @ 69mph / 1/4 - 15.969 @ 86mph
3) completely fucked it up, pulled off with handbrake still on, couldn't find second gear! passed the line at 16.713 @ 83mph

Sam no pictures as yet. But I have been taking loads of step by step pictures that I will post up in a couple of months when car is finished (bodywork wise)
Smashed my front bumper up last night too!

All in all though. Thought it was a good day as I got a couple of 15.9's and could deffo of got faster if had more runs!
Reason why I thought it was good is that my car is running badly at the moment and was rolling roaded on Friday with just 139bhp! So sub 15.9 with that power is good I think?
