I have seen his car races at numerous drag racing events at Atco,Englishtown and Maple Grove. I talk to him a couple of times and he is very friendly. Looking at his engine I am positive that he have the T-100 turbo, 2 rotors and I don't know what kind of porting he has that is I never got deep into the conversation with Abel. He ran NOS, Motec engine mangement and it is a full tube chasis. I heard that he going to 3 rotors. I think we will witness to see him in the 6s in the near future.

Yup, if anyone is going to do it, it's going to be him. Summit Racing has a contest, $25K to whoever breaks 200mph first. I think it has his name all over it. I got to speak to him at an E-Town event and he is a really cool guy. Some of these guys think they're John Force or something and have an attitude, but not him.

1Fast7;

Turbonetics make the T-100 and they even have the bigger turbo that was released a while ago the Y2K. Well just about 3 weeks ago when I was at Island dragway I seen another full tube chasis that have 3 rotors and he used the turbo that was custom by Turbonetics and even bigger than the Y2k and this is as big of a turbo you can get. I mean this thing is humongous.
It ran low to mid 7s consistent.

able is a cool/ down to earth guy. now the guys that have that tube frame 3 rotor.....thay wont talk to anything to you about specifics. all i know is what i see by looking at it. it is a peripharal ported 20b. and about a year ago i think he told me keka built the frame. that car is sick. he used to be at atco on tuesday and friday nights...then i saw it in magazines in small pics, and then i just stoped seeing it. (but job also prevented me from ever having off.....when i am not at work....i am either driving to work or home to ta a quick nap) i did see him about a month ago at atco one tuesday night. car is nice though.
i like abels r100 more. his new car is awsome though. but i am into old school rotary.
