Hopefully see 300 -350 rwkw over the coming months. Saving for a new turbo which should help that figure become more achievable. Currently using T04E or S trim with 1.34? housing should be enough for a while till the new turbo is bought.

Nah the Nitron wont be coming over. He's been having a few problems with it lately. I don't think that he is realy interested into taking it out to the strip anyway. He took it over to casterton once a few years ago and ran it without slick and has all sorts of traction problems. He is happy just to keep it going on the street as it is his everyday driver.

Well I didn't break anything. Ran a new PB 7.848, yep my new exhaust and the carby I borrowed gained me nearly .5 of a second previous best was 8.38. F#$king stoked. This means that I would potentially be running a high 11 1/4 mile. The track up in Mildura is immaculate. Best 1.8th mile track in Aus. It is that good that they had the new Lamatinna Top Alcohol car running for a demonstration. It couldn't do a full pass because the track does not have enough stopping distance. But it still ran the quickest 60ft time in Aus to date. Awesome piece of machinery...

Got a Trophy, Octane Booster and a bottle of fuel set for winning the bracket. For the best reaction time I got a Knife cutting set, some sponges and a set of 5 inch 3-way speakers.

Sounds like you cleaned up all right down there. Look forward to seeing your car in the flesh one day.
