it couldnt do it last year, not even close to it, but why would you push it when nobody was there to give it a go I dont think it has it in it, craigs had like a day tuning for last years nats and they were still doing it last year on the dyno after craig went nuts at them, i dont think they wanted craig to win craig never knew about mrpsi, there "was" conflict of interest, but they dont mind it "tryhrd" being around when it suits them

06-01-09, 11:55 GMT+10#67 MRPSI on the dyno last year didn't sound healthy almost like it was braking down as it was heading through the RPM. Was I imagining it? Does anyone remember it?
Thinking about it, it could have been breaking traction on the dyno but surely Dyno Dynamics would have tried different ramp rates/strapping it down to eliminate it.

First year in ages that I didn't go. It's Jamboree for me from now on as far as annual road trip car events are concerned. Jambo > Summernats.
if u knew ur holdens u would have realized that i have vs gts seats... front and back....and the holes on the bonnet u cant step the gagues back if its on the plastic.THAT WHY THE PLATES SAY ABVALL

I was looking for them yesterday as a matter of fact. They used to advertise them on the Tempe site but no longer! I feared that they may have gone the way of the Modelart!
