cONGRATULATIONS.. well done. But breaking into the 7's is probably still a lot of hard work away. It's amazingh how in racing circles just another 0.12seconds is such a big step up when you doing those kind of trap speeds and ETs around 8 flat.

Australian companies seem to like to be mysterious with their turbo specs, half of their drag cars seem to have "Garrett GT", "Custom GT3582R (<-- wtf?)", "Custom GCG" etc. I have it in my head someone has called it a GT47R though I start to doubt myself.

Winter Nationals Update
Mark Jacobsen has now a new Pb of 8.07. MPH @ 173 with a 60' of 1.27.
From Another Forum by DirtGarage "Car was turning the tyres hard off the line but due to the lack of a slider clutch is something that will have to be put up with. Car is unloading the tyres front to rear after grabbing 2nd gear but is running straight as an arrow (unlike sydney where it wanted both lanes)" "Lambda readings on the MoTeC show the car is running rich in the air conditions at the track. A harder leaner tune will be tried tomm for a shot at the elusive 7." stay tuned |
