NDSKYZ - left the line hard and half way down it blew the cooler piper off which pushed a hose onto exhaust manifold which ended his night early. easy fix
Spike - can you put up some footage if you got any? CHeers dude.

i wasnt sure if it dropped oil or blew a turbo or turbos but blew a ****load of white smoke,
but the RAJAB race car going 8.26 or what ever and then backing it up with an 8.08 was awesome to watch they have obviously done something to the rear end since last time i saw it, as it never used to leave the line straight but last night it was on song

the only problem there is there car (rajab) is .08 off getting there with ****loads of development under its belt and the other (bresciani racecar)hasnt even fired a shot in anger yet and my guess is it will take them quite a number of months to get it up to speed so its a pointless comparison and from reading around here it seems only 4 vl turbo commodores have eclipsed the 160 mile an hour barrier and thats trp/jpc/rajab and that white one that smokes the tyres hard which hasnt been out racing for along time.
rajab will do it first i think by a long shot and i reckon it will be close for trp or jpc for second into the 7 and bresciani will eventually get there but it might take some time to sort everything.

Well said mate I agree...
In reality you cant compare Rob's full chassis car to a VL with a back half in it... its two different things.....I take my hat off to Rajabs they keep crunching the numbers and to see a Back half car go 7's is damn impressive....I remember CAL-400 wanted to be the first back half car in the 6's... it never got there... those chassis designs have their limits its good to see Rajabs pushing the envelope...... no doubt Rob will achieve his goal more than likey in less race time than the others although the car would weigh substantially less and is a far superior chassis design.........
