I can hit 120 in a cec. More weight and less power than a bec.

I would look on you tube for in car footage.

What date are you on? Im doing the 17th.

Just make sure you fit the wheel nuts before doing the track day

Hi

Take a look here. RGB- Race vids from Brands Some of the vids have data logging on so you can see speed G-force and what gear.

Cheers Matt
