LOL, Those reds are bad. Thank goodness it was just a time trial. I cannot imagine what 7's, in the upper 170's would be like in my car. And I have a full cage!. Hoping to get out soon, My goal has always been the 8.9 range, but you know how that goes...LOL
yeah, they are a handfull at those speeds, had a couple of close calls at over 170mph and having seen the mess even a proper tube car can be after wrecking at those speeds I've decided to get the motor into something lighter and safer and go for 6s/200.
240 is for sale complete less motor only for usd15k if you know of anyone.
Bets of luck with yours, I'll keep an eye on your video's,
Sorry to see you retire My sister Z. Maybe you could put the ole small block back in her so I could keep up. LOL
I have ordered a rear small rear spoiler for the car, the big rear wing just dont do it for me with all the street cruising I like to do. I think the car has some 8.60's in it If I can keep it stuck to the track. I still have it tuned on the real safe side as well. So.. what does happen now with your Z? You keeping it?
It looked a lot worse from the drivers seat, as you would well know. BTW, I caught a pic on the Hyb.Z forum. The front end looks great on your car. That was quick! Who was the magician that?
A friend of mine did the whole lot in about 4 days, he usually does harley's and custom murals etc but I think he's done a great job for his first "jappa" lol
Just noticed the cherry on that run, maybe the left leap was your reward for being a bit eager?? lol.
Hows it going, you out much?
I've stopped running the 240 now, 7.8 @ 177 in that short thing with a street cage is quick enough for me, lol.
Motor is going in a 800kg dragster now so that should be fun,
