Default Willowbank, how did everybody go?

Hey guys, didn't recognise anyone up there, so don’t think I was being rude, wow, I’ve never seen it so busy, I got there at about 6:30 and didn’t do my run until 9:00.

This was my first time I have ever competed, and I was very happy with my first ever run, completely stock BA Fairmont GHIA (6cyl), 15.853!

How did everybody else go?

Au Fairmont, 15.20 @ 91 mph. The conditions were terrible, and there were heaps of cars, but I still got a PB, so Im happy about that.
Congrats on your time as well.

First pass since freshened motor and box.
Left at 3000rpm instead of 4000 and backed off at about 1100 ft. Ran a PB of 10.11, bettering old mark by 0.05 but ran 7 mph slower due to backoff. No damage and motor looks like it did it nice and safe and easy. Estimated it would have been probably a 9.97ish pass.
