Have you used it on track?

Hello and Welcome

Now that is what I call a BIGpower GTO - lovely looking car - you must be chuffed to bits - has she set a quarter time yet?

Thank you guys! What a response!

Hi Martyn, JC, John, nice to see some familiar faces here!

Yeah, we were well pleased with the car. I drag race it, and i kind of got a bit addicted! You know how it works, first you have to do a 13, then a 12, then an 11 and then....... :lol: Well maybe, one day!

Its best run so far ET wise is an 11.36 at 124, i've my traps up to a highest of 128 now, but the last run at the pod on the 5th, the grip was attrocious so you really couldnt launch it without going skuttering accross the track, so i just had to roll out of the hole.

Our workshop is just outside Guildford, we only work on Japanese sports cars (well unless we have a customer who has a runabout too 8) ) and we do servicing, repairs and tuning. We dont have our own dyno, but we use a 4wd one just a few miles from us. Pretty much the only thing we dont do is bodywork.

I would point you at our website to take a peak, but we are re-building it at the moment and all you have up there now is our rather duff old one!

Hope to make it along to one of the meets and you guys can take a look at the car and see what you think. 8)

Cheers,

Ben.

Really nice car mate, looks graet too. By far the fastest ive seen.
Look forward to your website being up and running as I wouldnt mind taking a look.
Welcome aboard, and good luck im sure a 10 second is in sight this year.
I know santa pod is awful for traction, maybe you should give shakespear a whirl. I always made more consistant, quicker passes there.
