Sorry guys - for all the people counting on us opening an engine, they'll have to wait.
Chris I agree, the Cams may have powered that Car to the 12.92 pass, but its the 60 foot that gave it that ripper of a time...so lucky nothing didn't break.. others have tried and ended up skating home on ball bearings.

blueblooded 1st 12sec, N/A 260 you must chuffed.

As Mark said get that great 60 foot and get the good ET to go with it...it's the key

Problem is with these 1900-2000kg fatties is that those times are hard to come by, and would be impossible without racing tyres....which makes it that much more impressive for thos ewho have done it.

The ls1 guys on drag radials get 1.6-1.7 60 footers, goes to show how less weight can get you off faster

Yep, I think us Boss guys have just got to accept that 1.8-1.9 60' times are the one's to get. How are anyway Rod?, can't wait to see you getting into the times again.

I think the only part that is "unopened" is the BOOT. : :

congratulation guys on the great times

weather its opened or not it great to see a 260 run a 12 manual or auto, i thinks it time for some of the guys with the 290s to go out & have a run before they are over run with the 260s

congrats again
regards
rod

Not bad Craig...the ute's getting some much needed overdue attention for a few minor issues, then considering a few runs every now and then!
