Thx everyone im over the moon! Im not gonna lie and say it hasnt been a hard long journey into the 9's cos it bloody was! The car originally went a 10.89 in 2004 when it was the first VL on lpg to ever go a 10. And looks 7 years later we have gone only 1 second quicker. Although it does show that LPG cars can go alright too, will be interesting to see how far it can go from here... Would like to say a massive thank you to jason ghiller for his help through-out the whole build. There isnt anyone like him out there especially when it comes to LPG!!! Would also like to thank everyone thats supported me over the years, Laura, The Hitcho's, EZY Greek john, my bro, marko, alex (PLZB18), preston automatics, All race and im sure there are many many more. I didnt honestly expect a 9.7, didnt think the car had more than a 9.9 in it, but to me its more impressive to know it was done exactly how its driven on the street, except the full slicks of couse... So who's going LPG now hehehe ---------- Post added 24-04-11 at 01:34 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by ATMO_BT1 [View Post] finally i can write the ****ing story hahaha Im dying to see the article man When's it due out! haha Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
