Re: Rod Runs 12.62!!!!!

What a great night for Ford. PB's everywhere. After Rod's first run where he had a 1.97 60' and hit the rev cutout in 1-2 and 2-3 and still ran a 13.08 i knew he was going to get the 12. I had NFI that he was going to get a 12.6 thats truely amazing. I wish i hadn't had to go to work so i could have seen it. I can't see anyone getting close to that for quite awhile, unless Rod beats it himself. The time and thought that Rod has put in to getting the 12 is inspiring and he deserves to be the first "BOSS" to reach the goal.

Well done Rod.


Geea.

Re: Rod Runs 12.62!!!!!

The sad thing is...most of us missed his 12.6 including Rod himself!!!! I did see the 12.9...It wasn't til later when he was looking at his last few time slips and there was the 12.62. He was shaking his head and I thought the worse that his 12.9 had been misrecorded or something petty like that! But no, he was shaking his head because of the 12.6!!!!
Well done Rod and thanks for the lift!!
Well done Hamo and thanks for the wristband ment I could walk around without being hassled. You might have to bump your mutant 6 into the 8 category at Heathcote!!

motomk
Well done to Rod on a top time!!
Well done to Hamo too....and thanks for the wristband!

Firstly....well done rod with an awesome time...have to be happy with that.


Secondly....I thought APS had the fastest BA in Australia with a 10.98 1/4

Re: Rod Runs 12.62!!!!!

I'm thinking Rods BA is the fastest N/A Boss BA in Aust. APS's BA is a Turbo I6.

I think you will find they mean the fastest BOSS in Aus. Or even the fastest N/A BA in aus.. or they could mean the fastest N/A Ford to have standard Body, Standard ENGINE...... Who knows.. did u see the MPH but!! now thats power!
