    is that all?! hardly worth going just for that was it?

    At least I'd get a good 30 seconds on the track.

    I did two runs......

    first run (and first ever 0-60 in the clio) was 6.94. but I felt I had too much wheel spin.
    second run, I launched at lower revs and bogged I think and I got 7.15.

    I'm sure I could get towards the mid 6.5's with some practice.

    Car's still only done 7,000 miles and it's a common consensus that the 172/182 etc don't loosen up til 10-15k.
