Missed out on his earlier wheel stand but here is a vid of his 9.0second pass. Congrats mate, car sounds great! carmen's xr6 turbo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH4XgqzqQpw&feature=youtube_gdata_player)

Who is maintaining the car now? great result!

Yeah man, things a beast.. Last time i seen it was a few years back at gtech. Good to see it back on the mile.

Any details on motor / power etc ?

The car is being maintained still by Rick and Dennis. Andrew and Con from Preston Automatics continues to look after the auto side of the car. It is now running a Turbo 400. Mark from L.M.S has taken over dealing with the arse end. on the first time out since he has worked on it it has gone from a PB of 1.45 now to a 1.3 60ft. even went a 1.27 and by the wheel stand nothing needs to be said. The car is now running a GT45 from the T51r used before and making around the 600mark. It went 9.0 whilst hitting the limiter and early shifting 3rd car is alot more of a handful. I spoke to carmen and he said he is eager to get out again very soon. ---------- Post added 26-08-12 at 19:25 ---------- ---------- Post added 26-08-12 at 19:28 ---------- (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/843/facebook1987214611.jpg/) Uploaded with ImageShack.us (http://imageshack.us) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I'm guessing it's got 90/10 shocks in the front to get such a heavy car to wheel stand like that, there more time waiting there if they get the front to stay down, awesome result

Ive never seen a BA lift like that, pretty nice photo i reckon

Congrats Carmen, knocking on the door to that 8 second pass now!

videos up on fullboost and alls i can say is wow. flying for a big beast like that well done. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=_yyHhXQBxKc (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=_yyHhXQBxKc)

Congrats carmen 8s just around the corner

Yep top work Carmen. Tuff launch Gotta love the rear bar on the ground.........

Miss seeing that car on the street, best sounding xr6 turbo goin around.

What's done to the arse end?

It looks like its had a live axle conversion. Cool car! Any more pics?

Big wheel stand!

Live axle plenty of torque and a real good hookup at the track = monster launch! And this wasnt even turned up yet hahaha

Is the engine from atomic?

Big congrats to Carmin! I remember this years ago on lygon st completely standard. Lol come along way, well done.

is the engine in this car the same engine thats off facebook that makes like 1800 plus horsepower on the engine dyno ? very impresive lifting the front end like that so easily for such a heavy car.
