Anyone know what the quickest VE Commodore 1/4 mile ET and MPH are? I tried searching the ls1 timeslip database but i can't quite figure it out..

I dont care about the limit of mods (more the better as far as i am concerned)

Dunc I don't think people are too fussed with putting up time slips of late in that data base as they've had problems with it but anyway.....


Not 100% sure but from memory Dave at CHE ran a 10.9 @ 134 mph a while back now with a 1.7 something 60' foot....twin turbo with limited set up.Not saying it is the fastest though but fark it was fast on the night in question.....there's probably quicker out there but that sticks in my mind at least ;)

Here it is, trackchat exclusive (please DON'T post this elsewhere just yet)

8.9's at 159mph - they absolutely smashed the record, at this was their first day in this car at the track, only had 2 passes today (rain in between sessions!)

well done to all involved

Kyle, just had a quick look, i'm pretty sure they are not running nitrous. Basically it's a C16 fed Twin turbo 440 LSX (iron) block. I'm pretty sure there is quite a bit to come they definitely were not running the full 1000hp yesterday. With a 1.3 60' & more power down and a good run i guess they will be running a few tenths better.

No nitrous running on the car on Sunday.

Justin took all the hoses & solenoids out of the engine bay last week and the bottle is gone from the boot as its unlikely this car will run gas in the future.

This car will race in super sedan, from memory i think only one power adder is allowed in SS/AA
