What boost is this beast runnining and what do u mean by getting the chassis working well?

Cheers

Daniel

G'day Daniel, I am not sure what turbo pressure the engine is running as Con (C and V) did the last dyno testing/tuning on the car. I am sure if you ask Con he will tell you about the current state of tune. :ermm:

Its quite funny at the moment lots of guys in Sydney think that the engine is on NOS because of how quick it is, Con will open all doors and the boot at the next meeting so all can see that the engine does not run NOS. :thumbsup:

The chassis set up is important to ensure good weight transfer and therefore good traction to achieve the best 60 foot time possible.

I had a chat to Vic 2 days ago.

No NOS was used, just racing fuel and 20lb boost, so the 285rwkw sounds about right. Peter, Vic was pulling most of the go-fast bits off the car, but had left the IC in place.

Brian whats your point? And what do you mean by the 285 KW? :ermm:

The car is generating 380 KW at the wheels according to Con who does tuning. :thumbsup: By the way when are you going to give your beast a run at the drags?

I heard there was an XR6T that was not allowed to run in the Summernats  Horsepower Heros dyno comp because he had NOS.

Yeah, the person involved was caught (breaking the no NOS) and was not allowed to run in the dyno comp, that car comes from Queensland. :(

Why is he pulling all the go fast bits off?

Vic was not pulling off the go fast parts, Brian is confused he was actually changing spark plugs at the time Brian was at C and V's workshop. Its amazing how people can confuse or only tell part of a story.

According to Vic (spoke with Vic 5 minutes ago) Brian was told that the phase II system makes approx 280 KW, and that the stock phase III system makes approx 330 KW, and that the C and V car is currently tuned to 380 KW for the drag meetings. All figures mentioned are power at the wheels.

It would be great if some people got their facts correct before hitting the key board. :thumbsup::ermm::ermm:

Sorry, retract that, I meant to say 385rwkw (obviously 285rwkw is not right) ... it was a typo.

The point was I was answering the question regarding boost used.... I didn't think it would be a secret

As to the drags no idea when... it's not a high priority ... I've never been ... maybe I should go out first and have a look. I did like the video; very impressive.
