ShearerFab Customer Update-Norris goes 9.2@160mph on DR's!

Norris Designs out of the UK made a few good passes on Thursday, running a 9.26@160mph backed up by a 9.48@149mph on a botched run where he missed 4th gear. Amazing part is-this was done on slippery Nitto drag radials cutting 1.7x 60 foot times!

This was done using our off the shelf Evo divided T4 manifold, and GT4294r turbo kit. He is shooting for 8’s on his next trip out to the track.

From the whole SF crew and I-Congratulations Norris! Keep up the good work.




I will update with more pics as soon as I get them uploaded.

I just talked to Norris and this was done on his road race suspension, he didn't want to change everything over on the car due to an upcoming event.

He's a good 60' away from an 8 second pass.
