Two New drag rotaries drom Miami hit the track

Not bad for first time out.

Owner Ito Guerrero, built by Jose (Uvy Performance) in a backyard in Miami. Tuned and driven by El Grillete Racing in Orlando. 696@26 lbs on its first tune, but I think the boost was turned up for this run.

2nd gen had tranny problems but still managed mid 8sec pass. 912whp at 40lbs.

They're washing the cars right now, so I'll take more pics later and post them when I get home tonight.

Very nice runs and very nicely put together motors. That's alot of money in braided lines and fittings.

Berto is the engine builder. Angel owns the car and it was also tuned and driven by Grillete.

Yes but I guess since El Grillete did such a good job tunning the .8, that Angel decided to take the 2nd Gen to him also. He fixed a couple of things a got 912hp out of it. This is just what I heard though.

Yep, but I guess the owner wasn't satisfied with that tune either.
