if you saw under the bonnet of it pwfffffor! you'd understand LOL
big plenum, big turbo, grumpy idle. i doubt they drive it daily. its probably parked out the front of the workshop?! thats where gtech/pet are.
^^agreed
JETBT1 ran a 9.51 with (dont quote me on this) 400ish rwkw
and the guy driving doesnt seem like a good driver,, sonded like he lost it in the vid around the 7 minute mark
u blokes never heard of traction problems? not making excuses for the bloke as i dont even know him, but if some1 has said it has 500 dont just assume because of the time it ran it doenst have that power, many things contribute to getting the power to the track....

um.. that was dennis from PET roasting the tyres off the line on the transbrake, backed off, then the car suddenly hooked up and skidded on the front runners. cant do much about that. id hazzard a guess at thinking that dennis has probably had more passes down the 1/4 mile than you have posts on this forum :P i think the owner banned him from thrashing the car after that but LOL
it wasnt the only car having traction probs on small tyres, did anyone see the corolla!
im m8s with the owner and it does make 500rwkw but it suffers really bad traction isues it cant seem to get the power to the ground but time will tell hopefully it gets faster

it didnt leave the line very hard and the driver used the brakes in the top end on that pass (got taily as you can see in the video).
just needs to hook up and 60ft and put in a whole clean pass and im sure it will run a good number
yeah love this car.. loks so tuff.. if any1 wants pics go to mikesturbo world bc there are some on there killer engine package
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

thats correct, traction always gets in the way but soon the times will tell as its
a machine, and once everythings sorted out, then hopefully time will tell
