STOCKVLT, Are you still running the standard plenum? And the link with the 13B injectors?. Congratulations Paul, Very quick street car a 10 is not far ahead now, And you would be the first VLT running straight LPG to run a 10 when it happens. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Good effort by all the cars mentioned above.the gas vl would be great with the price of gas compared to c16 and not to mention the accessability of lp gas compared to race fuel.

Last time I saw it he had the standard exhaust manifold with a JPC external wastegate set up. And the good GT35/40 turbo with 1.06 housing. Big boost and C16 will rape a 10 easy. Even with a standard throttle body but I think Sam has a XF throttle fitted on the car. Sam are you running a transbrake on the 3 speed Jatco?.

Standard throttle body, standard exhaust manifold No transbrake yet, I want run a 10 as is with just a stall, C16 and boost, I it has made enough power already to achieve that just needs bigger map sensor at allow more boost

Because it did an 11.6 on 19 psi wheelspinning 8in slicks on PULP. It doesnt take a genius to work out that the car has potential. Next time out running more boost, C16, better slicks and with front runners im quite confident it will do a ten

Yeah the white one with the Rajab stickers, was running some old 8in slicks. Got off the line reasonable well then just started spinning at around the 60ft mark

if thats what it was doing down the track on only that amount of boost and that fuel then it sounds like it shouldnt have any probs running 10s.one things for sure i wouldnt try racing on them slicks by the sound of it there a death trap waiting to happen.

Kurupt i suggest a set of slicks would help. Just got an sms from a freind from calder just now which said VLT030 off this forums purple car was out tonight have some traction issues but still was able to manage running 10.0s at 135-6mph.he's certainly moving along now by the sounds of it. i would say it wont be to long till his in the 9z by the sounds of things and just traction alone would have him there already.there was also a white calais from unknown origin running mid 10z at 128mph.
