New PB
11.15 @ 129mph - 1.80 60ft Very happy with the result considering the hot weather and still on the standard transmission 60ft is getting better, this time left the line with 3psi boost, looks like this is the sweet spot for my car, any more boost and she goes up in smoke Credit to the tunehouse boys for preparing my car and Jim for the awesome tune..... boy is it fun to drive on the street So far PB every time we have gone out great work fellas Fishing for the next few months and back in march for a crack at 10's PS: I think this is the fastest et for Factory ZF and stock stall converter Previous best was 11.16 by Mark (spoolman) Mark please confirm Will try and get my time slip up when i get a hold of a digi cam

Yes, even better, guys traveling from interstate to Sydney to have their cars tuned.
There are a group of guys (myself included, with my F6 auto), that are not drag racers, will never have a roll cage, so a 10.9 is a major milestone…. and done with street tyres rather than full drag slicks, and without nos. It’s also good to see workshop personnel going out to the track to support their customers. Well done with the run Jim; a 10 is not far off. Brian

Great time
Mark's F6 ran 11.16@132, times are close! Great time on the 60' too considering no converter and auto changes |

Thanks for the kind words fellas
Will have another crack in a few months when the weather cools down I think that 60 ft can be improved some more....need to play around with the settings a bit more

10.92 is still a fair way for the both of us, still its something to chase. We shouldn't forget Simon from Extreme in W.A had a Phoon on 11.1 over a year ago. There's 3 cars on 11.1 now, wonder if it was Rapid in colour...

My estimate is that if the box gets done Jim will easily run into the 10s. Witha rebuilt box and a race fuel tune I would not be surprised if he runs a 10.7 - 10.8sec pass.

Also having to wait for the transmission to change gears doesnt help either

11.1 to 10.8 is .3s of a second not .5s. With a good 60' time in the 1.6 range he will gain at least another 1/2 of that at the end of the track hence 10.8 is on the cards. I ran a 1.53 sec 60 footer hence it is possible if you can get boost off the line and traction in the first 330ft. With a bit more MPH and a good track a 10.7 is possible in Jim's car. I gained about .4 with the same tune and a converter upgrade! (11.2 to 10.8) I don't think many people realise how important the transmissions are these days. As for a shot or two, that is not on the cards and has not been considered.
