Thought I'd post a few pics I took of Tom in quick succession, Tom seems to initially pulls away from the Grey Mini but then it starts to catch up, I can't remember the final result though but I could hazard a good guess:

I think its the red top conversion mini. With something like a 100bhp shot of nitrous.

Ah, this was on the Saturday. That was my worst run of the weekend in actual fact, bogged it off the start and then missed 2nd and 3rd, did a 13.73 @ 106mph.

Judging by the lack of weight in the back of the DON, I'm surprised that it doesn't do endo's at the end of the strip.
In the 13's at last!.. Just |

when i saw the don at combe, tom was doing something or other to the exhaust to try get through the sound test. I was suprised when he just lifted the whole back of the car up with no effort! Edited by Ollie on 18th Jul, 2008. On 2nd Mar, 2008 joeybaby83 said:

Tom, i dont think 13.7 was your worst run of the weekend, we did one run together and i'm sure your time was worse than that |

I did a 13.9 on the old tyres datalogging just to see what boost we had, but wasn't "trying" as such. 13.7 was my worst "competitive" run so to speak.

i have to say 12.36 from an a series is trully amazing, i was looking at the ten of the best web page and in the first one andy nichols won with a 1/4 mile of 14 sec!!! ok there all a lot quicker now, but with a little time maybe the Don could be a contender
