Posted 06/06/08 01:01 PM Share Posted 06/06/08 01:01 PM I have driven one of those supercharged V6s... (im presuming the VS Supercharged is the calais V6 Supercharged...They are a bolt of lightening off the mark, they are like a greyhound tking off... I reckon they would keep most cars honest to about 100km/h... That is a stock car... One with a few mods... boost etc would really move...I reckon it would keep the Clubby very honest.... (to 100km/h)Couldn't agree more!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was ahead of me for a little bit but I soon reeled him in. I'm trying to chase up some outside video of the race just to see how close it was.

That is just terrible. Its as if they just whacked a bit of crappy road in the middle of nowhere and said lets race on it. I wouldn't think any sub 10sec cars would be allowed to race on it, theres no run off at the end, except grass and trees lol.P.S what mods did the SS ute have ?

Donating Members 381 Member For: 17y 7m 9d Gender: Male Location: Launceston Tas Posted 06/06/08 03:24 PM Share Posted 06/06/08 03:24 PM (edited) "> Drag strip in the middle of nowhere is about right. When we had the drivers briefing for newbies they told us a guy ran of the end at 180Kph and in to the next door paddock. The track is really going to sh*t we used to have the likes of victor brey? down here but haven't heard much for a while. The end of the track felt like an ol country road with a pot hole or too. @ around 200Kph that ain't good. So with a bit of luck and a few more events like ours with alot more people to race it might start to ge back to it's original state of fame.There was a Vic Vs Tas day not that long ago did anyone come down for that.Not sure of the mods the SS had but wil find out.This is from 2007 so what he has done from then I;m not sure. Yet to really talk to the bloke tofind out. The only chat I did have with him was after the race in which he said that my ute had a heap of grunt or something along the lines of as he was ahead of me but as I said I reeled him in.Glen Edited 06/06/08 03:34 PM by zx6rblue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hulk xr6t Member 160 Member For: 17y 2m 7d Posted 07/06/08 11:41 AM Author Share Posted 07/06/08 11:41 AM Hi,When I had 280rwkw in my XR6T (when it was soft) I ran a VX SS.. It was an Auto with diff gears and at least an exhaust... I would imagine an edit as well.... I didnt spool up off the mark just flattened it... It was about level off the line and when it hit boost, it was like I just rocketed away... about 1.5 car length lead... You could here the LS1 revving off its head... Next set of lights we took it easy off the line... He just cruised went it revved quick and chirped into second so definately diff gears and some auto box mod (maybe edit)...It was a 1.5 length win to the XR6T only to about 110km/h... legal speed...

Iconic Bionic My engine bay is Bionic Donating Members 3,726 Member For: 18y 9m 4d Gender: Male Location: Freeways Posted 08/06/08 12:02 PM Share Posted 08/06/08 12:02 PM Those on the other side (LS1.com) say that a 250rwkw SS with LS1 or LS2 will match a 300rwkw XR6T for mph down the quarter mile... they reckon the big Ford are just too slow out of the blocks and are too heavy...I find that Hard to beleive... I had a 280rwkw LS1 and my 300+rwkw XR6T feels faster... (except off the mark)...Is this same bloke that started the 750rwkw xr6t the other week on here?? If not hear goes 50 pages of who's got the biggest donger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
