Hi to everyone!!!

[Quadcams]

Howzit going guys,

Was refered to this forum by Lautray (Erik), myself was on V8 owners but had a few issues over there so hopefully a much more non bias approach on this forum.

My car is a BA XR8 ute 6sp manual 5.4L 4v boss

Mods: Difilipo hedders dual 3" cats back, Bluepower cai, ported heads, cams, scat rods, diamond pistons, SCT flash tuner, underdrives, 4:1 gears, approx-330rwkw

Sofar just today my tuner/engine builder (Chris from Bluepower Racing Developments) did some testing at Heathcote and netted a 11.87@116mph 1.68 60f and alot of wheel spin, not a bad start for its first clean pass with a very new motor, should be some good improvements when a few traction/suspension issues are sorted.
Race weight was 1720kg + driver 85kg= 1805kg

Anyway looking forward to some chats in the future.

Wade

Yeh its a new boss manual record but there's alot more left in it yet early days, next time out should reset the n/a boss record to (11.76@116).

Let us know when you go to WSID, at the very least I want to see this thing run an 11. I know how much effort you've put into setting this up so it would be good to see the look on a few Commodore faces...

Wade the Friday night thing was just a trial; i think they had "issues"

Anyway it looks like they may be trialling the extension of wednesday nights instead (perhaps starting earlier and/or finishing at midnight etc).
