XAGT toppie, 4V and 3.5s

[XT302]

Mate went to track last night for a play, his car has all the fruit, sunroof etc.
He backed up his previous best et on street tyres 12.5 but this time more mph @115 and went 12.3@115.5 (mt radials) with wheel spin in first (not enough heat in the radials)...all accounts next outing should see a 12.2 or better.
I reckon no bad for a iron headed 4V clevo ,hydro (non roller) toploader with 3.5s

Con has one hell of a car

Saw it at the GT nationals and was very impressed

Wild plum, white trim, 4 SPD and sunroof. Wow!

[XT302]

And it doesn't hang around

Sorry Jimmy ran a best on the night in the A9X of 12.6@112

WOW his MPH is like mine but hes got over half a second on me on ET......very very stout combo....it's standard stroke too is it not?

[XT302]

His engine builder has told him it is standard stroke, but was vague on the exact engine specs. It was on a dyno recently with similar geared xy that was 393, Cons made no where near the same torque.

[Stefan]

Cool is quick for a 351 that sounds quite tame, but doesn't matter, it runs what it runs which is all that matters.

Who built the donk?

You going to Valla this w/end?

[XT302]

I have met the engine builder but cannot remember his or his businesses name, no big name , Sutherland area from memory. He no longer deals with the business. Knowing Con curiousity will get the better of him and it will be pulled apart.

It's definitely no angry thing, but quite a lopey idle for a non roller hydro (that is a definite) ESP with the new exhaust.

No Valla for me, you?

Ps you best mph 111? 4mph will equate to a difference in et.

[Stefan]

Yep on Valla and Yep on MPH 111 (had to double check)

Did you look up your master spreadsheet of everyone's MPH?

Day off to get the car ready tomorrow then cruise up Friday, should be good

[gcg2503]

The Wolf delivers.



Not entirely confident that 315rwhp gives 12.5 second quarters though!

[XT302]

That dyno pre ignition , carby and exhaust.

Just rang a bell ... Enjoy Valla, which car? Family?

[Stefan]

HAHA thanks George I think a few more ponies have been corralled from the top paddock.

Taking the XY...bit apprehensive taking the shiny one, but I got to use it one day I guess.

Valla is a solo for me, maybe take Dan in a few years. He's only five and still only drinks light beer...

[XT302]

Lol Pat has coaxed a few more ponies out of hiding

You should be ashamed letting Dan drink light beer, almost criminal should be on full strength with a limit

Enjoy yourself and try to limit your beer intake ahahahaha

[XT302]

Not too long till it hits the track again, be good to see what a different approach and the Scot Cook cast iron manifold has to offer
