The long wait has finally come! Showing what RAJAB Racing are capable of doing with this sort of combo, Steve's twin turbo RB26/30 combo sent a monster roar through the streets ramping up a whopping 630.8 RWKW on what Alan Rajab says is a "70% complete tune". Interesting when I read that. Saw the car in person on sunday and must say what a nicely detailed engine bay it has. The car came out of the hole like a monster. Well done Steve, time to get those 8's.

Steve drove the car himself Rob. Im sure when the video's are up you will see how she leaves the line too Quote: Originally Posted by DVS VL280 congrats on finally running a number, can only get faster now, bit off topic but does any1 no what darrens yellow supra ran? didnt see it lay down a number.. is this the same supra which wore the plates damn once upon a time?

Ok i got some info, the car has has had over 200rwkw takin out of it and its been detuned to around the 440-460rwkw mark on around 20-22psi mark to avoid any potential breakages for one and also for steve to be safe and get used to driving it, they werent expecting 9s from him so soon its just that it did it pretty easily, mainly just want to sort suspension for now to get it spot on and then bit by bit the power will come up to chisel away at the times, car is extremely heavy and would probly be in the 3300-3500lb range and seeings as boostn is 3080 i wouldnt doubt it, 2 turbo's, 2 gates, steel centre 9inch not alloy, full brock trim carpets the lot.
