Just had a ride out with a couple of mates the other weekend and had another bash at running my 318is after a diff change . Was well pleased with the results as it ran 14.55@96.07mph. A bit off my normal pace ,but then i was lacking a load of cubic inches .

Never mind the E30, tell me more about the pro-street pop

[prostreetpop]

Ha ha.. Its got a small block chevy in it with about 440 bhp on the motor and then i run 150 bhp of gas when i race.. Check out Outlaw anglia . My number is OA70. Im no where near a quick one but then mine is on the road. It has run 10.20@136mph best in street trim. It is good fun.

10.2 is damn impressive for a car in street trim with a non-blown SBC

Love the pop by the way. As a kid one of my mates' dad had one, just a tame steet rod with the usual rover V8 and jag IRS rear end, but so cool. It obviously rubbed off on my mate, he's just sold his Model A delivery van which had run 10.03 with a blown BBC.

Ever get up to York?

Never been to York. I run at santa pod and Avon park and went to brunttingthorpe once. It was a 200mph club day. It went 2.02 0-60mph and i come off it at 156mph as it was floating about a bit.
