Royal Purple Raceway in Houston this past weekend was home to TX2K 2017. EnglishRacing made the journey down with 7 cars for the festivities and very well prepped track.

The Drag X has seen a few versions as of late but in order to prove our current engine program we put a steel rod 2.0L in the car with a stock head. It had made 1199whp on Ignite 114 with a Precision 8385 but for this race we dropped back to a 7285 Gen2. Car still weighs around 2700 with Luke driving.

get it !! take the 7 second pass also

 

Any info on those GSC S2x ?

 

Stock unported head made 1200hp gotta make those suckers with 600-700hp and $2000 port job feel....well you know.
Awsome build as usual

 

We wanted to test our off the shelf steel rod motor and a stock head since it would have the highest EGT and be the most knock prone with the small exhaust ports and potential backpressure issues. When we put the old motor, aluminum rod, back in with a ported head and cams/larger turbo it should be ready to rock. The S2X was a typo, they are just S2s. The S3s that GSC did for this car are on the shelf still waiting to go back in.
