Oh And please accept my apologies for rushing off, I rescued a fellow twink from that horible 'trying to keep the engine running, juggle the pedals, pulling up at every junction' sort of thing, lol, imsure we have all done that at some point.
I would also like to thank every one who helped, it made a huge difference to the day.

I managed a best 1/4 of 15.87s
best 60ft of the weekend was a 2.34s and best reaction time was a 0.504s
Not bad for a 1275 seing as theclass B third place time was a 15.1 something and that was a purpose stripped out light weight job. First and second place were seperated by a matter of 100ths of seconds with 14.9 something, which is something never seen before in class B, apparently.

how on earth did you get a 15.87 with a 1275?! What are you running? The best i've managed is a 16.17 with a 1380 on a 276 with 1.5:1's..
intrigued!

no doubt there is a spare switched feed to the fuse box you could use.
my best time with the new 1275 bored out by 30thou was a disappointing 18.2. think the standard cylinder head is holding me back. i got a 17.9 in marie's clapped out 1275.
