You probably misread my post, on the dyno they could only manage to get it to 12 PSI before the wheels lifted off, yes he does usually run 18PSI. He had another run later at 5PM and made 340RWHP. The guy doing the dyno run told him they only revved it to 4000-4500RPM. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Caus that would kinda blow if parts were bought from places like over these forums - it would be a bit hard to have a real 'proof' of purchase. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Went all day today, fairly all right day… There was a good showing of fast vlt’s in the drags, WLDPSI, QIKENF, UWANIT, GAS747 and Jet 6's brother. Top effort by Jet 6 brother… bet George Haddad in the orange HQ. The white V8 torana that won the drags overall won last year as well. GAS747 and Jet 6’s brother’s car sounded like Jets of the start line. Got some movies of them stalling it up at the start, but the loud V8’s in the back ground drained out all the sound…. Here are 6 pics from today… got heaps more but theres too much to upload. Maybe later on in the week. QIKENF (White VLCT) (http://img44.photobucket.com/albums/v134/mikes_turbo_world/QIKENF.jpg) White VLT (http://img44.photobucket.com/albums/v134/mikes_turbo_world/VL1000.jpg) GAS747 - Blue VLCT (http://img44.photobucket.com/albums/v134/mikes_turbo_world/GAS747.jpg) Jet 6 brother's car (runner up in drags) (http://img44.photobucket.com/albums/v134/mikes_turbo_world/VL701.jpg) Another pic of Jet 6 brother's car (http://img44.photobucket.com/albums/v134/mikes_turbo_world/VL702.jpg) WLDPSI (http://img44.photobucket.com/albums/v134/mikes_turbo_world/WLDPSI.jpg) VL Group A (http://img44.photobucket.com/albums/v134/mikes_turbo_world/EVLGPA.jpg) Hopefully all the links work

SKDMUP was one, he was all over the shop, and I have that on video as well I was waiting for someone to hit the wall but there were a few good saves luckily.
