What were your 60' times like? Ohsigmachi '96 GL MTX Zetec SS (SuperSleeper) Suffice it to say my mod list has become so long that it is just ridiculous

I will have to let you know later today what my 60' times were cause I am not at home right now and that is where my time slips are. I will scan them in and post them here.
