If he added a 150bhp shot without a progressive control system that engine would be in bits on the strip

anything over 75bhp is dangerous without staggered jetting.

wrong info we ran 100 shot fixed hit on the line without a controller on a standard engine with no problem and the only reason we run one now is because it just wheelspun too much when we tried 150 shot when we get the system right we will run about 30% start upto about 70% from a 240bhp hit in 1st a bit more in 2nd then all in the rest

i mean the bits on the strip bit.. didnt you drop a valve head or two at one point caused by a dodgy fuel / n2o mix?

Fastest I have done is a 12.2 but that was concrete so if an when I get chance to run at pod on a better surfaace there is no reason why it wont pull an 11 now apart from my driving.


However I might not have the fastest time but im pretty sure I have currently have the fastest terminal speed over a standing 1/4 mile for a corsa in this country of 127mph. Im hoping to get well into the 130mph this year if it runs good.



Also Gaz'd fastest time is a 11.8@121mph last time I checked
