Congrats Wade, And a manual. This means I have no excuses now not to get well into the 12's.
What launch teqnique are you using o get those 60's. Thats a whole 1/2 second quicker than I have been. I have some serious practice to get in.
Well done

On another note that was the last time I will be running unopened next time out (about 5-6 weeks) next project will start.
Chris (Bluepower) is doing a full rebuild blueprinted bottom end,ported heads,cams. : one decsription monster.
Will will soon see some good potential out of these boss powered cars, theres a couple of other boss's coming out opened this year also I have a feeling it could be a good year for the boss. :
Might be a good time to fit some big headers Wadey Boy......
