Good work
Best I could manage there in the BX was 15.9 @88mph I think. I had a dodgey gear linkage (theres a vid of it coming off racing Luke's car!) and 16inch alloys at the time, plus a nearly full tank of fuel and a boot full of subs etc. (think thats all the good excuses I used for the lame time!)
Got 15.6 @ 92mph at a different location, thats a bit more like as its the book speed. Had smaller wheels back then too.
Gutted I missed that event though, let me know if theres another?
Cheers

I've spotted an abandoned rover SD1 locally, heheh, my plan is to go knock on the door and buy it, must have V8 drag power
