Hey people, haven't posted on here in a while, figured I'd give some updates on the car for those that haven't been following on facebook. After a tough last season I finally got that 8 sec pass with a holset, yeah it wasn't a stock hx40, but still an hx40 with a bigger compressor wheel. After...
Went to the track today to test out the new coilover setup, and dss pro sport axles. Car was super consistent, and was running strong.ran in order- 9.38@153, 9.12@158, 9.17@157, 9.12@154, and 9.42@155. Track prep was crappy, and netted bad 60fts.<iframe width="560" height="315"...
First off I want to say, what a great year last year, and couldn't have asked for anymore out of this motor.
My plans this year is to try different turbos on the car, and over all have another good year with minimal breakage!
First things first, run a 9.50 or faster with the stock 6 blade...
Finally got into the 9s, and even more then I could ask for! Thanks everyone for coming along and supporting me!Incar-----

Possibly the last run of the season for me at Pittsburgh Raceway Park; very first pass of the day I ran a 10.14 @ 138.25!Car was breaking up through third and fourth gears like crazy. The very next pass I broke the left rear axle so this was my best run of the day; 9's yet to come for sure...
