Sly Xr8 Runs A 13.01 New Record

[X ORSMXR]

SLY has ran a pb tonight at Calder with a 13.01 l am sure once the guys get back they will fill you in on the rest of the info...

[DOC]

Well done, Heathcote is lookin hot for some 12's

[ratter]

I don't think I'd be happy if I ran that, I'd be thinking what if i had done this or that just to get an extra 2 100ths



Congrats
Great times

[SpoolMan]

Well done Dave so close to that 12sec pass, its really making you work for it...
Give us a run down on your Pass 60 foot etc:

[Chris]

Dave the Sly dog.

1.97

85.23

13.01 New ET record
106.96

and I chipped in with a 13.05 at 107.19 with a 2.03 60ft.

260 madness, all over again, and we are having a ball doing it.

Well done sly, you are one sly determined bugger!

Slow start, got 5 runs in, which is a killer at calder, the burnout comp had a record 8 or 9 entrys, people not happy, but there was little stress oil down wise, so that made up for it.

HPF had a white full trim XR6T running 10's, never seen it before, and a first timer XR6t acid rush auto running 12's too.

Im stoked mark, 260's rock. getting tempted to open one now.........

sly wont let it go that HE drove his own car tonight, i will never hear the end of it, my driving job has VANISHED!

[rodderz]

Top effort Chris and Dave...you got that car sussed and you continue to get the results

Lets hope you dont get stuck for a while like so many others on the .00's before you run a 12!

[SLY XR8]

Well another cold night at calder freezing you now what off.

I finally prized my keys back off chris and took the purple puss for a drive

13.27@10613 13.40@106.37 13.98@105 would haved liked that one eight weeks ago but not now. then 13.012 @ 106.96 and a 13.12

Well done Sly/Chris man so close, three of ya's all bunched up now looking for that 12 who will it be?

[GT 8888]

Well done Dave......once again the "purple puss" is the one to beat.

Heathcote is looking more and more exciting...will be great if someone can crack the 12's at a AFF meet.

See you in a week mate.....keep the beer cold.

Cheers

Brad

[MYV8]

Well done Guys, won't be long now.

Hey Chris, obviously you are not very busy down there, you should consider flying up here on Wednesday and having a drive at WSID. You will only miss a few hours of work time. LoL.

Good luck at Heathcote next weekend.

See you in a few weeks for your SYDNEY TUNING trip oh MASTER

[dute]

Well done Sly/Chris man so close, a very cool 13.012 @ 106.96.

The time is getting closer, I can hear the cans being opened for the 12sec run after all the work you blokes have put into it.

[Laminge]

Well Done all

So damm close it must hurt!

[Chris]

The hardest part has been watching all these guys run quick, and I had only ever run 3 13.4's.

If not for GTP330 threatening me with a beating if I didn't put my exhaust back on, (and a re-tune) i would probably have my stock system still on it.

Here's how I went, giving it a bootful,

2.102 83.63 13.32 105.94
2.050 84.00 13.30 105.79

then a little more gentle at the startline

1.998 84.91 13.10 106.62
2.010 85.15 13.06 106.85
2.033 84.47 13.05 107.19

The nicest part of the evening was chatting to all the LS1 boys, who were missing tailgates, exhausts, had cams fitted,

and were only running 12.7's.

They make me sick. I can see now that we are slowly starting to hurt them, i predict within 12 months we will be cam only 11's. When I made the prediction last night, they didn't laugh. In fact, not many LS1 guys are laughing at us anymore, we are starting to get their respect.

Go the Hump!

[SLY XR8]

That right Chris and unlike the LS1 unopened when they can have things done things ours are trully unopened not one bolt cracked.

A'm getting more and more tempted though.

[PhantomXR8]

Excellent work Dave, man that's just too close. I reckon if you had a splattered insect on your number plate you would have got the 12, that's how close you guys are to it. Oh great one Chris, you're doing great too mate! Your under studies are whippin' your **** though. The Xtreme gravy train is now really starting to picking up some pace.

[Chris]

come on craig, my PB at calder was a 13.45 before last night, exhaust and tune and bang 13.06, backed by a 13.05, im on my way........

hopefully we can get some serious side by side action at Heathcote next weekend, Jeff bring the vid, I'll keep you in supply of donuts (again)
