personal best was 12.2 with the manual.
60 foot times still a bit slow but traction the problem now, not clutch 1.75 now, i think before were around 1.8/1.9 running a 2200 stall converter |

There's so many fast turbo falcons around these days I love it! I saw a EA turbo with an EF engine for sale in the trading post a couple of weeks ago, wasn't yours was it?

I think the Ferrari driver posted (assuming it was a red F355) on the E series forums several weeks back. Well done on the fantastic time.

the car was at easternats in very early stages, had only been running a couple of days.
XA Coupe thanks, i would be very interested in any footage of the car. I think 10s would be the only way to beat that moment...... hopefully i will have some more pics of the car soon... have tidied up engine bay now, but needs a detail under there...no show car though. |

Ah yep, i spoke to you on one of the days.
certainly a bit of a shock to see the car there, very much a sleeper i assume its no longer on the stock bottom end as it was then? :P
