The 1.49 60' is ok. He use to cut a 1.43 with the stock T2 tranny. That 9.23 was on second pass and only one at the track cause he doesn't have the NHRA license yet.

Yeah that's the one. I remember He drove it all the way back from St.louis with a 10 gallon fuel cell, we had to stop at 3 gas station time. Also the trailer got a flat tire so we drop my FD and the trailer at the rest area. Than I borrow his friend's car to drive home, I had to pull over half way home cause I can't open my eyes anymore( 2 full days with no sleep).

BTW: The rx3 (that dynoed the same day in St.Louis) ran a 9.6x at 122mph letting off due to a blown turbo + motor I warped 4 apex seal (super seal) I think he made 630rwhp at 30 psi on a T2 motor (dowel motor) s475 turbo on stock T2 coil.

They tune it themselves, it comes long way from the 350 rwhp in St.Louis to now. We are going to Noble OK. for the IFO on Sunday. Maybe a video and hopefully more pictures.
