Did you use fourth gear at all for the 134mph run?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>No fourth gear required!Tyre was 28 inches high it will 143mph at 7200rpm geez!<{POST_SNAPBACK}>So is the fourth gear still useless? What's your power like above 5800rpm?Imagine how fast you could go with a 3 speed auto instead...<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Well GeesemanTo put it in a nutshell the power over or on 5800rpm is like the devil!It turned the tyres second run at the 1000ft mark at 180kmh so that shoud tell you something.

Dr Z Member 378 Member For: 21y 3m 28d Posted 21/07/05 08:14 AM Share Posted 21/07/05 08:14 AM Congratulations Spiro and C&V! OK, that's made my mind up..I am seeing C&V so out goes the Unichip & in goes the Edit with a sweet intercooler to go with the APS Phase II hardware. Umm. Err. Dont worry Spiro, I am not hunting your records, just something that can get me quickly and enjoyably away from a nagging ex-missus. Wish you the best with all your future endeavours. Safe and happy driving...Dr Z. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18922-new-record-to-spiko-spiro-nsw/page/5/#findComment-274844 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 23/07/05 02:53 AM Share Posted 23/07/05 02:53 AM What I love is that this car hit the scales at 1810kg....Imagine what taking 100kg off might achieve...I really think this car will break into the 9 second mark on its next drag meeting.Can't wait!
