Its not really that funny didn't glen suckling run like 8.0 something on a holinger which is similar to the os88 box. Very impressive considering gtr700 couldn't keep the hollinger together when they were running 9's must have been the 13500rpm...

Another PB.

Once you get that close to a world record it must be extreemly hard to not want to carry on and go for it.........

3/10ths is still a long way to go agreed but already their times have come down by 3 - 4/10ths this year

I cant think of anyone else remotely close at the moment so seems a shame to sell the car when they have made such great in roads
