He won the off street drags you line up against who ever and race only to about half of the 1/4 mile no timers just line up and race he did do very well against some big v8s

1/8th,I wonder what his 60 foot times would of been. Kw does not = speed,I know of some 300 hp cars that are VERY fast! Gearing,weight,and a motor that has some good low down grunt to get it moving are the key. Congrats to the owner tho!

At Powercruise I was running 23psi and was slowly pulling away from the Mazda RX7 with supercharged Lexus V8 that matched my launch (none of the other V8s could) and he does 10.5 @ 130mph at Mere Mere. cheers Kevin Yeh, I deliberately keep it looking stock so as not to attract too much attention. lol. Ahh yes time for the old chute,I can understand why you do not want to lower your time too much.We have had it many a time with the odd skyline that comes in and the time,Well let us say they are not allowed back o the track untill they have done some work(Chute cage etc)But a 10 sec street driven car is really great,What clutch set up do you have??And the fuel is it 98,and av gas on the strip?? Cheers Marty

Doesnt make sense why you arent allowed it at the track.....but your still allowed to drive it on the road when you break 10 secs.......lol and its probably safer to race it on the track Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
