It's a huge achievement of both of them IMHO! Congratulations to both teams!
Even more impressive to see Turbosmart to be to a certain level which most of haters here will never be into. Well done and please keep it going!!

Best,
Iwa

Nice for both teams. Looks like Pac hit the limiter way before the finish, so they still can go faster.
So keep on the good work so we can see sub 6sec next year :-p

Just going to throw this out there...

When New Gen made that pass I heard various DA numbers between 750 and 1100ft BELOW sea level. What kind of air has PAC been running in? Anyone know for sure?

Weather and track prep played a huge role in that record pass for sure!

All they gotta do is bring that pac car to the states and match it up cause when the 5 PR cars went down there they dominated in their class running those sea levels in australia.


I believe the cars were El Yankee rx8 which belong to the owner of microtech and Pica motor import that was built in PR,Clubman corolla,Jessiali datsun 1200,BamBam mx 5,and a red starlet which was sold and stayed in ozzy turf i don't remember the cars name

Because they're cheap and easy to tune...

Not sure what ecu loquito killer runs but the major league runs a microtech and Wilbert tunes that car...

I somehow doubt they are using Microtech just because it's cheap. and they aren't easy to tune. They are actually pain in the *** to tune.

I would think either Microtech readily sponsors all these big league cars, or they are actually better for subtle reasons we don't know. They are feature poor but I rarely read people blowing up their rotaries on Microtech for some odd reason?

Microtech is too small to sponsor someone....

Them were actually build for Rotaries when started, the precise timing control make them the deal over all the others, maybe even over Motec....?

Microtech put there own tech support and customer service center right in PR, thats how many people run that ecu in the island...

I had one before they were hand set controled back in the early 90's it was controlled with a screw driver it has about 18 different setting anyway? I sold it to a friend I got it in a trade with Rocky from pac for some Savana taillights...long time ago
