Better start playing with my GT again, these XR8's are starting to catch up! Least i know i can get a full pass out now without loosing the oil pump ;) Then i can post what the car has really got in her

Alex the MPH after the oil down last night went right up on all the XR's, with the new time boards its good to see whats going on.
But no doubt the edited cars run good ET's with a healthy MPH..
Chris your Diff gears still 3.7's?

Well done to 3 x Chris...these boss motors are showing what they're capable of

Brilliant times and mPH to boot that is good for a 12 with a hard sticky launch. Just need to get one without a bang as some have found out! Simon has been getting some good tunes out there

I'm spewing now...my decrepid ute is falling away and cant afford to bring it up to scratch! lol

Yep, I reckon I was close to the bang thing. These BA XR8's are going great but we're close to stretching their drivelines, mine's still feeling the punch! Apart from all of that, Simon's footprints are all over the place, good on him!

Hi Chris....Red Beast back on the road after breaking a CV last week at the drags....

My Tuner (Morpowa) has just got the edit software and is looking to use my car this week for some testing. I was going to give him your name and Simons name in Perth to get some ideas.

Hope thats OK.

Brad

Hey Brad, heard the painful news about your diff mate. Nevermind buddy, it just the part and parcel of drag racing these cars. Good to hear she's back on the road again.

Welcome to the forums....interesting 1st post although I suspect you could be a little off the mark. At least 3 Boss 260's are now 13.3 or under and a handfull in the 13.4's none of which are running NOS.

Mate the only reason l was in my boot and looking to see if anyone was looking is because l kidnapped the OFR leader cause l heard it was worth 3 tenths if he was in the car with you,obvisouly could have him in the passenger seat as he would have been seen.
