Sounds like yours is a high spec, I'v had a remap, the ECU was taken off, sent away and refitted, Bmc filter, de-cat. Powerflow ss exhaust and back box from the de-cat, turbo boost increased + 2 psi plus Roverrons MAF box.

I wanted a car that still was fun to drive with a bit more poke, rather than an out and out race car.

Looking at the site you dont need a helmet unless its an open top, or you go over the finish line at more than 110 mph, dont know how you know that if its your first run though.

Also waiting for the rolling road Dan was arranging in Essex, to see what the bhp is now.

I have been looking at the 180 and its very tempting, getting mpg about the same. Must admit it was up and down the M3 and then the Forest meet, and it was going a lot quicker, He He,
no one will get anywhere near 110 mph at santa pod,stock zs 180 will pull between 89 -92 mph depending on the conditions on the day,diesel zs will pull high 70's low 80's imo , chris will be quickest terminal at about 104 mph imo.
