What he said. This is my 1/4 mile video from a while back:

106 destroys me off the line cause mines a big car and alot of power to put down compared to the 106 but after I grip it's a different story. He only finished 0.4 of a second behind me but I was 0.3 seconds slower off the line and he was pulling away whilst I was still fighting for grip.
On the road however, I'd destroy it...

Yea agreed, your car must be what 500kgs more than the 106? 0-100mph is a better test, going by your vid 0-60 the 106 is just as quick as yours...

I'd imagine so mate, mine weighs 1480kgs. I have got a 14.7 since that run but still, lighter cars just beat me off the line. I know I could launch my Zetec S off the line faster than my MPS.

My mate's CRX did a 14 dead at Crail, which I wouldn't get near. Once rolling however, I slowly pull past him.
