Stage II at the Track

Went to the track today to see how Terry's car was running and give him a hand if he needed. With the T-88 and 15psi the car went 9.4@158mph with a light launch and 1.77 60ft. When it took off it was like a jet! Then a big dark rain cloud came over us and that was the end of the day. Here is some shots of Terry's motor.

Yea, I only got to see Terry run once before mother nature said no more racing for you today.
That thing sound sooooooo sweet...
I was there until 3:00 Sat talking with everyone then Rob & Jacquie, Marilyn and I spend the day in Gimli. Been a long time since I've been in the town, it was a nice afternoon. No more rain, had lunch then when for a walk on the pier.

Not really. I'm sure there are some that are capable. Are you in the Winnipeg area?

He has done a nice job on the car! Can't wait till he turns up the boost and runs some 7's.

This is Sean Lilly's old car. I don't know the weight but it is fairly light. The motor is a 274 cu in Stage II running a PT-88 turbo. The cam in the car is the exact same one Bill Anderson had in his low 7's car. The tranny is a turbo 400. That is the basics of it. Car should run 7's considering there is a good bit of boost left in it. I wonder if there are any other 7 sec GN's in Canada?

Cool In The 7's...

Terry ran a 7.9@179mph on Saturday with a 1.18 60ft. This is still with only 24psi of boost. Can't wait to see what it will run with some more boost!
