Default Drag Strip

Just wondering if anyone else has run their D2 S8's on the drag strip. I only found one video on YouTube of an S8 on the strip. I only mention it as I took my car to Santa Pod on Saturday to see how it would do.

Pretty quick was the answer......14.77secs @ 96mph. Very happy with that result. Only did 5 runs, as I was nervous about keeping the transmission intact. Didn't monster it off the line either, as I avoided winding it up on the brakes. I just let go of the brake and stamped the throttle simultaneously.
