Another IRS Rotary in the mid 8s!

A local NYC racer, friend of ours, just went 8.45@163MPH with a 1.24 60ft! Ritchie is not on the forum much but thought you guys would like to know about this one. Car is just out and does not have that many passes yet.

Here is a video of one of the 8 sec passes. The 8.45 pass video is coming in a few.

ON

**** that's fast! An incredible 60' to boot, there might be some quicker times to come!

Huge props, I'm glad there's someone from NY still making TimeMachine watch over their shoulders!

Any info to spare on rear end or trans? We are all information ***** on this board

LOL that's his brother in the video that has a low 7sec FC, they were probably bored. It was a license pass I think and they were worried he went too fast or something like that.

He joined the forum. He read the posts and wanted to thank everyone for the comments.

Motor is a semi and running a big turbo, I'm not sure on the size but its bigger than a 75mm.

Rear end is a cobra rear like the one I just sold. I wish I had seen that video before I sold it! Tranny is a Gforce.

He met you guys in Orlando and wanted to say thank you for coming over and saying hi. It's amazing how fast these cars can be and you guys (timemachines) lead the way for a lot of us.

Bad *** Car!! This has been my favorite FD for the last few months now. I'm so Glad to see NYC going after that IRS record again!.

here's a very good article on Ritchie's FD from Team Samrico back when it was still being built.
