Ah, damn fine reason! How do you find it compared to the SC? More fun?

Not sure about more fun, I'm just starting to learn the car, it's got a heap more top end than the S/C but you don't get that instant thump in the back either.

I haven't got my launch technique set at all as can see from the vid. But it gets away pretty damn nicely, it's not the wheel spinning monster you might imagine.

It is great to have such a reserve of power, It may well push close to 250km/h at Phillip Island or Sandown. Looking forward to getting it on the track next year.

Wow 250km/hr in an adub would be damn scary. Just going from what I've read you would want some sort of aero revisions like the radiator vent in the front firewall and maybe a flat floor wouldn't you?

Yeah the front end gets the wanders at speed for sure.
Definately worth considering the vented bonnet and putting a flat tray under the radiator/steering rack.
