Hi guys,

I've been a member of netty for over a year now and thought it was about time I also joined here to!

I live in Bristol, not that far from Kev.O (lovely car!), and own a Black 6spd T61 single. It's my 1st ever Supra and am very much in love with it. Recently took it to Santa Pod were I managed a 12.7 @ 117 mph. Was fairly chuffed with this considering I'm a complete drag novice, however if I manage to learn how to launch without leaving 30 ft tire marks 11's should certainly be within reach!

The Supra is my daily, well a car this good needs to be used! I've also got a little weekend toy, a 1380cc mini which is immense fun, espcially on some nice twisty B roads.

All ready recognise a few of you from netty but look forward to meeting you all.

James.

Bigger pic of my sig:

Maybe in the future I may look for some gains, possibly in the form on a turbo change, but for the time being at least it makes for a very quick (and fairly lag free) street set up
