No Records broken. Best my ute managed was 12.60 @ 108.6mph and I don't know what MR GTP-UTE's was. We went head to head twice and I won the first but kept breaking leaf locator bolts so had to soft launch in the second one to save the ute for the main event. So he won that one...JUST. We will be at it again @ Calder on the 5th October and the suspension is sorted now so if he beats me again I'll have no excuse. Be interesting to see how it averages out after a few passes of flat out racing! My money's still on the silver bullet to beat the Black stallion.
Lets face it Bartoss, a bullet will always kill a horse! :thebirds:

Cheers
Glenn
