Made 3 runs today, could have made more but just wasn't really into it and needed to get home, anyway my times were

14.8
14.6
14.4
in that order so heading in the right direction.

I did 2 small burnouts over 3 runs to put some heat in the tyres and to clean them, if you get the Bridgestones too hot they get greasey which obviously has a negative effect.

how do you find the quaife, worth the money?

The Quaife seemed to work brilliantly on the drag strip, not tried it on a regular track but will do over the coming months.
It works really good on the road too but it does pull the steering about a bit

Agreed it has a different feel when it starts to pull the car around a corner.. I did manage to overpower both tires at a stop light breaking loose in first and chirping hard into second ... Oops. lol

I fitted Michelin Pilot Sport 3's about a week ago, way better than the stock Bridgestones.
