Great innit!!

I did the same for the first time ever at the Bulldog last summer, and I too had trouble with the starts. I did 11.66 and 11.06, 126.xx and 128.xx mph.

I had a knowledgeable type watch me (I had asked him to observe) and he reckoned there was a second or more to be gained in the start.........

Really enjoyed it though - especially being interviewed by a topless Rio (from gladiators) for M & M tv!
