   Seen a VTS do 15 dead standard with no back seats. Bit of a freak that time though. Actually that car was just fast, no idea why

   Ahhh, Simon, long time. No, I was thinking of Nickhead's (Bunny's chum from the folembray trip) when he did a 15.0 in his at the pod with no mods. Craggy's was another of the rare beasts that could do silly times for seemingly no reason.
   
   How's the turbo going?

   aye saw the pics on various forums and in ppc, may just be tempted by folembray as be good shake down for it. atleast no james bond style opening doors with lack of ejector seat next time,lmao. of course a lap will be in order for you, if fairly quiet(froggy feckers in ren 5s,gtf!) might be tempted to passenger in it with you showing me your style.
   
   anyhoo, mid 15s very respectable from a fully stock vts.

    mid 14s should be decent, hard to say as too many things t be taken into account.
