Kev went out to Calder tonight from all reports he is thrilled with his XR8 Ute.
12.17 @ 112.6mph clearly beat his last PB. Congrats to Kev and G&D Performance a fine result and that's one very quick manual powered 260.

Well done Kev, bloody awesome pedalling mate !
You are "The Man" when it comes to launching those manuals. And "YES" i do believe those cams work, lets just strip the guts out of it now and see what it can do.

Well done Kev, the G&D team are proud of you.You sure can pedal that thing.I know only too well that running good numbers with a manual is damn hard work.I'm also happy to say that theres more in her yet.280+rwkw's is not too shabby from the little 260 but we'll squeeze some more out of her.
Yep, no nitrous,no engine swaps just a good set of cams.Theres hope for the 260 brigade yet. Camerons right,lets pull some weight out of this thing & run that 11....LOL. Well done mate. Glenn |

Well done Kev!!! Thats great news! You are the manual man for sure! Maybe after Glenn and the boys have done some work on mine, you can take it for a run or two... Im a poo manual driver.
I hear all these things and I just cant wait for my car to be worked on! Jac

Congrats on improving your time Kev. Here's a couple of pics for those who missed it. Hopefully should make the next Vic drag section in Performance Ford Mag.
