took my 172 cup on a runway

[ColinG]

wow..what amazing fun, living in cumbria theres an airfield at kirkbride so i went one night with a mate in his silver 172 cup and also a highly tuned 106 gti, for some reason the silver cup just couldnt keep with me which was odd...its done 24k against my 9k and i had my girlfriend in the car too.

oh to settle an argument whats the best revs to launch at? i was using about 4k but still alot of wheelspin..any less and it bogs down a bit..

the silver cup probably has air-con...not a proper cup
