Re: Rod Runs 12.62!!!!!

I wonder if those 6 speed autos will be lighter. Anyone know?

Re: Rod Runs 12.62!!!!!

Rod, top effort mate. I'll still push the superiority of supercharged Boss engines but will admit with results like yours someone has to put up numbers for the blown camp sooner rather than later.

Perhaps CAPA etc should consider getting a customer car sorted properly and pushing their products harder????

Re: Rod Runs 12.62!!!!!

Well done Rod, time and effort has paid off, that seems the trick though, get the 60 foot down,and the time will come.
On another note, I went for a spin in the Mingeinator the other night, what a beast that will be when its fully run in and settled, very smooth, sounds like it means business.

Re: Rod Runs 12.62!!!!!

Thats a pretty awesome time, makes the SC cars seem pretty lame in comparison.
I'm not sure if it has been mentioned elsewhere in this thread but is it an auto or a manual.

Re: Rod Runs 12.62!!!!!

Rod, great effort on the time mate...I was there on friday night and I though it was a 12sec pass but the stuffed timimg board made it hard to see. I was dying to find out but i didnt have the net all weekend.

It was a great pass...got of the line perfect and flew down the strip. My lil cousin was like whats that had done to it!! LOL

Great stuff and great dedication has paid off!!
