Title: New personal best.
Post by: larrym on October 06 2013, 01:59:27 PM: I live on Vancouver Island and we have 1 event a year at the Airport in August.
Decided to take the car to a real track for the first time. Got up at 5am drove an hour to the Ferry landed then drove an hour and a half to the track arrived at the track at 10am.

First 2 passes were 11.43,11.44 tried a little more boost saw some knock so I let off and coasted to 12.1.
Mission Raceway is a great track.
Drove her home and gave her a pat on the back I love my street car :D
