Santa Pod is a 1/4 mile strip only. As far as I know they don't do 0-60 times. Trax (which is coming up soon) has 0-60 runs and I'm sure there will be a few people from the site that will be trying to see how fast there car is.

I might give it a blast but might also wait until next week at Locky's little event as they will be cheaper :lol:

Quickest nova 0-60 i saw at trax this year of 3.18, which ain't bad for a twinengined balck nova running either 18's or 19's with over 600bhp. good lad hey

I really didnt wanna spend an hour in the q for the 0-60 at Trax cos i dont rate my car as a 0-60 weapon - corners are my thang but i realised that the EDS was in it so i joined in so as i could have a looksee. :lol:

Anyways I got stoopid wheel spin and thought my run was a bit shit really and on the basis of that i reckon that:

Dan could do sub 6 maybe 5.75ish?
Chris T could do sub 5.5 if not better?

But of course they need to get off their arses and have a go :P :lol:

Sorry ladz - cudnt resist it :oops:

:lol: :lol:
