9.6 at 153mph on test and tune night

We just wanted to get some data logs before we crank her up
Man i can tell you its nuts tryen to control the car with the new build
But tonight we just had the boost shut down till 2nd gear and than ramps up so we could i could see how the car feels Will be at it next weekend with the boost crank up and no mph limiter on. Should hit 160mph and with a good 60ft hit my goal of 8s.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

like i said in the other post... Did Steve Arcenio Get that run on camera???

I know we're making a documentary already on the buildup of this car... definately would add to the phenomenon of the final goal of an 8 second run..

way to rep the NW! Keep up the Hard Work!!!

Thanks guys!
Man the shear power of the car feels like its going to go into the wall even in 3rd gear the rear end starts going sideways We made a video up. But you can see in the video the car is freaken hard to control. If you are not on the ball and holding the stearing wheel with dear life you will go right into the wall My first run i went into the other lane

Paul,
Congrats on the run... good thing I didnt bring the supra out I dont think it would have been a good race. Now you are only .15 seconds from being the fastest 4G63 powered car in Portland

Tom ran a 9.44 @145 (not 100% sure on the trap). His new setup should be done soon and should be NUTS.

It looks like BOTI in Seattle might be interesting with your car, Jake's Talon, our Supra, Brett's Supra, and maybe Tom's Colt all racing against each other!
