Thumbs up Aussie first gen runs 9.93 @ 141!

Nope, wasn't me or A777





I did race but had problems with the new T2 box I had being really tight. Quickest pass of the day for me was a 10.89 @ 131mph but that wasw shifting to 2nd like I was driving Miss Daisy Last pass of the night, the box finally freed up and I hit all the gears, but the new twin plate decided to fry itself through 3rd and 4th. Still ran 10.8 @ 123




Thats it for racing for me. The car goes back to a street car now!

Its a T2 engine and the turbo is a Garrett TA45. Front looks like a .76 and that exhaust housing looks like a 1.22, so its a big bastard Boost was around the 30psi mark I believe...

Wow, he was using the same wheels I have in the rear at least in the first pic. Black center and polished aluminum rim of the wheel. Makes me feel I could go fast too now.

Heathcote is a dust bowl at the best of times! Doesn't help when people are doing hand brake turns in the dust outside your garage

Winnipeg - Nah man, the closest town is 20 minutes drive!

Mark - Yeah the box was rebuilt the week before and had been driven once up and down the road out the front of the workshop, so it was a bit tight

I will still go out on street tyres (Yokohama A032Rs) and try to get into the low 11s
