I broke the box in the C10 had a new 1 built and I fitted it a couple of weeks ago but on the way home from yesterdays photo shoot I think it may have shit itself :( not 100% yet I'll check the cable adjustment just in case its not selecting properly .

Had a few issues with the engine mainly cam and lifters but hopefully it's all sorted so went for a quick lap this arvo.
Should have cage in for next season see how close we can get to a NA 9 😉

Last weekend a mate of mine put on a dyno day and the old big block did a layzy 546 at the treads with wheel spin .
I've taken a couple of days of work so me and a mate can build a chrome moly 6 point cage ready for the start of the season hopefully it doesn't add to much weight as she is a little on the heavy side 1700kg 😒

Good Man Kevin,

 

Great work getting some drag times,

 

more wind down force on the rears will help.

Went for a play last Wednesday had a few issues like the radiator tank blowing open before I even got a pass in but a couple of my mates raced it down the road and repaired it .
Still got 3 runs in car was dead of the line so very slow 1.56 60 foot times but still managed 10.1s @ 135 mph so quite confident she has 9.9s in it
