Chris doesn't send out the car with the best tune until he thinks it's time, also not saying that this is all the car has. As you know what chris can do with a unopened 260 even before openening it. |

Well done ratter, great result...
if you can run 11.6, I suspect everyone will be lining up for a 11.6 tune.

Not much between them standard, but when you start playing with them the 290 really responds.

Lowride260 has been 12.7 something, manual, 4.11, racing wheels and tyres.
Well done Ratter and Chris, awesome job tonight, that thing was flying your 60' footers looked great and the ET / MPH on the scoreboards looked even better. Well done guys a great result for an auto car. Cheers Craig |

Well Cam it may be the motor to have but they are very different to each other.
But when racin the 260 racin is very close unlike the 290 race atm. |
