Rob if you have a look at it its bigger in every angle then 10.5
None the less its impressive but its only new here in oz
They have been doing it for a while now.....
its not about the power -its about the setup, and the track prep ---something us ozzies should think about.........

very true.. You only have to look at what the Yanks are doing on radials to understand what is possible.. I was just thinking that mid 6's on a 10.5 is a bit silly.. Although technology is getting better and better in drag Racing.

the Gary White car from Titan had a GAS combo in it, not the record setting titan setup
and it ahd problems all weekend
between runs they seemed to have to pull the head off all the time
the craig dyson car will be an absolute animal once it gets sorted!
its also an ex titan car and its already laid down a 6.8 it think it was on sunday
the gas celica ran a 6.48 while mph is still way off that of rayglass
it rayglass can get a full clean pass in it will smash the gas record
rayglass ran a best of 220mph on sunday i think
it was also good to see wedlock finally putting down some full passes
6.7-6.8 i think it ran
it wont be long and the records wont belong to titan anymore
that is until they come back out in the states!
the pro turbo scene is going to get very very interesting!
the hurricane team is putting down some very good numbers
dyson is starting to get all sorted
gas
wedlock
rayglass
intune
and some moron sent a txt thru that the 2j cars should have there own calass as there 2 quick lol
and the guy in the tower thinks that the rotors will end up beating the 2j cars haha

Rotors will end up beating 2J's? LOL
These times are only an indication of what is to come from these cars.
Now i'll ask again, did any other VL's run besides Team Karam and Ben?

Also congrats to Team Karam and to Ben on his 8 second pass.
Keep the updates coming guys.
I wish I ran that 8. The best I could manage was 9.40 @145mph.
As soon as I shifted in to top gear the car nosed over. F&#king wanted that 8 so bad.
