That'll be really interesting, I go there a lot, kids always beg me to take my car up the strip, but I explain to them I'd get laughed at, cars at the Pod are in a different league.
Never seen an 800 there.
My fave car was watching a 10sec MK2 Escort launch off the line, you could see the whole car twist as it took off, think he was pulling over 500bhp and it looked standard.
Be interesting to know how you find the launch.
I've seen many cars go 'pop' there so please don't blow it up.
