Got this great shot of my car at the track...

When I raced last wednesday, the official track photographer came over and showed me this pic! So close to lifting the front wheel!!

Click to see the larger image.



For the record I ran 11.8 @ 118mph on street tyres, pump fuel and ~17psi.

10s will come next time out

Max - Thats about 7000rpm and a step off the clutch, not side step. Next time out though, its 7500 on the two step rev limiter and sidestep 31 spline billet axles own me!!

Branca - Thats on pump fuel too. 427rwhp is on a dyno dynamics dyno which read around 17% less than a dyno jet. So on a dyno jet, I would have made over 500rwhp Like I said, thats pump fuel. With C16 we can get alot more aggresive with the timing and up the boost to 25psi. Should get it up close to 570rwhp

rx7passion - The mullet, we all know and love it

I actually have the Mclaren F1 cockpit, I am seated in the middle and just adjust pictures to suit

In a nutshell, the car has a Cosmo 13B, large TA45 based turbo, Haltech E6K, T2 box, twin plate clutch, strong diff and sprinkled with boost

www.ajc13b.com is my page with full specs and pics.

What's up with the bumper? is that from chassis twist or what? i don't recall seeing it like that before in any other pics of your car.
