Congarts to Colin, aka CMY-747 aka JET006, who last night ran off his first 9 second pass with a 9.91@136.9mph, and backed it up 2 passes later with a 9.92@137.??. Suspension is now in for some major work as it was absolutely horrid off the line, who the bloody hell told yout o run those springs and shocks?? They need to be shot!!
Hope to get it out again in the next month or 2 and see if we can get the tank to run a 9.6-9.7 full weight. Not bad for a full weight calais with sunroof and full electrics
6BOOST
Now who has pics or vid??!!

29-01-09, 18:35 GMT+10#17 thanks alot guys........yeah has been along time coming....has been over 4 years since the car & driver last went down the track, had a ****ing blast!
car has a 6boost gt42 package & runs on roo16 (i hate pump fuel lol) have to say a big thanks to Kyle ...without him this would not have happened, infact the car would no doubt be sitting in the same spot it has for the last 2 yrs.
as kyle said it need some suspension work(funny chopped springs just don't cut it) & both the car & driver need to go on a diet lol.
If anyone has any pics post away as i have none!
Ollie still up for that swap???.....just don't tell Andy lol
John your car would have run a nine years ago if you had have kept it!
hahaha Gormo love your work!

Choppies are still working for me.. haha I just need my ***in wheels back so i can fit some decent rubber.. I guess that will make way for you to pass on what andy is waiting for, and before u know it... there'll be 2 more of these threads in the not too distant future :P
