RX3 drag car
 
3 Attachment(s)
havent been here in a while, thought I would post a few pictures of our RX3 for 2008. Its all fiberglass body, tube chassis, Atkins 13B with a Camden supercharger on gas. I have been trying the Jerico 4 speed, but keep breaking them. We are going to try a G-force 5 speed to start the year off and see how that does. Any recommendations on trannys from you guys?:dunno:

Any pictures of under the hood
 
What kind of numbers is she putting down? Carburated or Fuel Injected. Sounds like a pretty cool project. The Camden Supercharger has always fascinated me, but never put any effort in pursuing it. I know Able Ibarra had one of these units in his RX2 many years back, but I have not heard any updates about that project in a really long time.

Thanks
Albert

Looks nice!!! Whats the specs on the motor?

sorry i cant reply to your messages, i have to have so many posts before i can. so here goes. it has a holley 780 now on gas, i am building a rons flying toilet alcohol system for it when i get dialed in. I have not got a full pass yet because of transmmision issues> ordering a G-Force 5 speed to hopefully cure this problem.
I have several pictures of motor and car, but was unable to post them. if you want to see more e-mail me at bnzimears@aol.com and i will send them to you.

thanks,
andy Mears

As you can see, that's one hell of a gilmer drive! No belt slippage here!

Before you knock the stock dizzy ignition, this is an old pic, he is updating the ignition.
