30-70 Et in 3rd

MiniMorgan came up with the idea on Mini2 http://www.mini2.com/forum/engine-dr...ear-times.html

Its something we can do within our speed limits on our roads, is cheaper than drag racing but unfortunatley might have a bit of human error in it unless you have some form of data logging like we do.

Anyway have fun with it, please post your results on Mini2 if you're registered. In theory Jans GP should be top dog on this one.

This was done a while ago on this site with mixed results. It always seems to end up with people doubting others' times/circumstances, etc... Weird, right?

I think the thread was called "to hell with the dyno" or something of that nature.
