Interior, no interior doesnt mean anything to me.
If the car has gone 8.6 then thats what we have to beat. Its good to have some competition. There is a few tuff cars floating around that can all challenge for it.

Yeah I thought it was 8.71 as well as thats what is also listed on FordXR6Turbo.com as well, but I think I heard somewhere it had gone 8.60 something.
Hopefully the car will go well at Jambo and we can go a little quicker again.

Yep - a little gas to get it up on boost on the converter. It is a pretty tight converter. It is only linked to the transbrake.

You would think so. I will have a look on youtube and see what I can find.
Thanks mate - lets hope we can go even quicker now that we are starting to get some momentum.

I think Dom just got Troy to help with some suspension set-up recently to try and get the rear end to hook up better than it was - it is certainly helping.

Not sure if the other two cars will be racing - but if they are it will be very cool! Should be a good show-case of the potential of the XR6T

Best 60ft is 1.3 so far. That was what it did on the 8.8 pass. Unfortunately we were running out of legs at the top end due to some gear ratio challenges but we are sorting that out now.
I will have a look at the timeslip for the mid-track mph and come back to you.

Y eh thanks for your reply mate if you could check out your time slip and get back to me I will much appreciate and if you could please be more detailed in your 60ft time (meaning that you stated 1.3 did you mean 1.30 or 1.3_ ) Thanks mate cant wait till Jamboree this weekend

Fair enough - each to their own. I dont have a standard pair left, one fell out some time ago on a launch and smashed, so tinted they will remain.
