I've organised an Aristo drag day for the 25th at heathcote anyway.I'm aiming for a high 10.

Launching at full throttle and lifting the front wheel is another thing. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/17189-vic-spotted-chat-thread/page/2385/#findComment-1205567 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's f(:/(kn irritating, I'd rather have traction and feel g force than skate. My car only has chump power compared to alot of cars on here.Still getting used to manual after so many lazy years behind an auto. lol Hoping with more power my shifts won't be as crucial.

jzs147 Member 20 Member For: 13y 6m 3d Gender: Male Posted 04/03/12 11:08 AM Share Posted 04/03/12 11:08 AM I thought that was the case, that's why need more power. Aristos weigh about the same as falcons.It runs the same IRS setup as a supra so it's not suited to drag much but it's not too bad with a few tweaks.See how I go with new exhaust more fuel pumps and ultimately more boost after this week. Even a 10.99 would do me... For a while, not!
