Default Went to the drag strip Wednesday night (stock 2016 F Type R)

Took my stock 2016 F Type R to the drag strip at IRP Wednesday night. The car was very consistent, given that ambient temp dropped about 15F from my first run to the last. Definitely turned some heads in the staging lanes, and surprised some Hellcat and ZL1 owners. Might have to work on my reaction times and do some bracket racing next summer 😁.

Looks like you had some fun. Not exactly sure why, but seems the majority of other brand's owners underestimate the R (unless they've been educated )

Jaguars are often wolves in sheep's clothing, c.f. XJR.
