Hi people
![]() I know there's a few more tenths in the big girl too. So what happens now besides having to get a cage if I want to keep running sub 11's? can I go back and run 11's or will I get refused entry at the gate next time I go to race? Won't be doing the bolt in cage this year and not sure I really want to at all, but I do know the reality is I want to go quicker and faster lol. Just want to know if they will refuse me entry if I go back on a Wednesday night for a bit more fun. Cheers, Wayne. ![]() ![]()

Hey Wayne, Firstly a big congrats on running a 10.59!
![]() Can say for certain you wont be turned away at the gate. Not so certain with tech inspection but doubt they would have the info at hand to know your car has gone faster than should......if the tech guys ask what she can run? best say 11 something.........Most likely scenario would be if a ANDRA official with a good memory spotted you down there again they would tell you to keep it above 11.0 with no second chances. Cheers, Craig.

with the stock 302 and Novi 2000. I would consider a 6 point bolt in cage but I think that'll open up a can of worms with having to register the car as a 2 seater etc. Might lay low for a while as I ponder where to go from here. Thing is there's more in her, a better 60' and maybe some more revs up top and there's probably a couple of tenths. A loop might be very wise though. Dam this car don't even have a shift light lol.

Don't mean to sound like a nag, but your build thread is unfinished and the car has progressed ....
Would be good to get a bit of a write-up or post up the specs of the motor, dyno sheets etc. Reminds me of my old Meteorite Ghia, never quite hit the big power but loved its easy cruising abilities. |

OK OK quit nagging me lol (jokes bro)
under the hood is a 363ci 8.2 block @ 9:1 Forged crank & H beam rods Z304 heads custom hydraulic roller cam Edelbrock RPM11 75mm TB 1000cc injectors Holley Dominator fuel pump Paxton Novi 2000 supercharger @ 15-16psi Built BTR behind that 3.9 Kaaz diff All works together nicely to do the job. I was planning go Holley Dominator ECU and dash it's currently tuned using Quarterhorse. The only other mod I was thinking of doing was a Super Vic manifold with an elbow, but we'll see as I can't see the point now. Thanks for your interest.

Nice work ... and to look at it ... it looks like a cruiser as well ... definitely flies under the radar on first looks.

my license I was in the process of building a XE sleeper, lowered with S pack rims and had a 351 clevo ready for her but didn't eventuate... that was over 20 years ago. Another reason for not wanting a 6 point cage ![]()

Great work!
Last time I remember reading about your car was when you had the blower on the stock 302 IRC... looks like its come along way! Low 10 in it for sure!

was pretty lame. I was expecting 330-350 atw. I was going to persevere and try and reach that goal with what I had but I had some nice parts on the shelf so I thought I'm not getting any younger time to bite the bullet and build what I always intended. Been a long road but worth every minute and dollar literally.
