There's plenty of room for more record holders, as your 260 unopened record still stands your car should be in the pic

I have been driving it around like that except with my 19" wheels, the slicks and front runners were only on for a video/photo shoot thingy.

Geez there's some history there now that i've had another look at that pic. Bobby, me, ratter and Chris's 2 cars only missing DABOSS, Tri Power's AU and now Doogstar's BA 6cyl to really be a bunch of show off's....LOL

Some serious records in that lot. Seems like forever ago that Chris ran that blue ute into the 12 and 11 second zone and Rod's pursuit with the twin turbo set up.....

Probably a question to ask Chris, he probably knows, because he probably tuned it

Josh,

The technically correct "Boss" manual record is 11.3x by Kev in his purple XR8 ute. That run was done on slicks and front runners with the car partially lightened up.

My AU while not a "Boss", is the quickest manual modular as far as I know, 10.99 @138 with the new engine on street legal rubber (Toyo R888) and 10.78 @135 on 18" MT streets with the old 4.6L.
