mtec 2 on a pre facelift.

would have been lighter and more aerodynamic with the tech 1.

Oh lordy how I need that car in my life, E30 styling and big yank V8 power

I believe it's good for 8/9 second quarters

He runs it in Super Comp which is running to an 8.90 second index, although it will do mid 8's I believe if he goes 100%.

I was down there all weekend (Thursday morning through till Sunday afternoon),

DapperDan your car wasn't the Malachite Green touring I saw on the way out was it (day parking)?

No, I was in my mates scooby

but I did see quite a few e30's, Black 2 door 325 and a grey/silver touring.

I only saw it on the way out as it was next to the road, I saw no E30's as we were camped in family camping (no knob heads playing music at 4 in the morning and falling on other peoples tents, plenty of space, cleaner porta-loos etc).

I never actually saw the car run this weekend, although I didn't stay 100% glued to the track, I did watch all of the Pro classes though...Top Fuel FTW

I like what he's done with the inner wings there. It's certainly opened the engine bay up a bit!!

I saw it run late on Saturday evening, as it's for sale I guess he was taking it a bit easy as it ran just over 10sec.

Looking at the entry list he was running Super Gas which is a 9.90 index so running just into the 10's is normal (although normally gets you nowhere as it is a tight class).
