Sergen GTS and Russo running 9's (video)

[35R]

Sergen GTS and Russo Performance went out to the Holden vs Ford day at WSID yesterday.

It was another stinking hot day with track temps approaching 60*

Anyway here is a little video of them running a 9.91 @ 142mph yesterday.

The car is still full weight, with alloy 383, 8TB and gas. They've run quicker before and will run quicker again I'me sure. Another Russo car ran 8's yesterday (not an LS1) I may try and dig that video out a little later...

Well done guys, I wonder how fast it would go without those extra 300~400kgs?

Awesome!!! :D

Now thats what i call a good engine that makes good power :yahoo:

[lautray]

Yep, they sure know how to prep a car. Great vid. Justin was looking quite relaxed at the wheel too.

[scat2k3]

Man it looks well setup. The launch is awesome.

Great work guys and well done.

Cheers,

Scott

Nice video work btw Dunc.....youre a gun :bow:

At the risk of sounding like a big girls blouse here i know but i think id be too scared to drive that beast :o
Justin seems pretty casual driving one of the fastest ls1's in Australia though :driving:

[BOMI]

Good work on the vid there Dunc and awesome stuff from the Russo boys.

I liked the one handed driving at over 200km/h :lmao:

That is one fast car!

Can we keep the workshop wars bullshit off this forum thanks !!! I find it very hard to believe that you have "accidentally" quoted Sonny word for word.

:toetap:

Once again ... fantastic effort Justin & Christian. I can't wait to see what this beast can pull in some more friendly weather. On another note ... can't wait to see how Dunc's car turns out when you have finished with that too.

Great work boys ... thanks for the vid Dunc.

:cheers:

[cosmo vyss]

Thats just pure hauling...:bow: Love the launch.
