Unopened Pursuit 12.548 - Ford Forums

Being the owner of the pursuit I have to say that I'm extremely pleased with cracking the unopened record on the the cars first outing to the 1/4 mile.

Chris from Bluepower kept telling me the car had it in it and as usual he was correct

The car had a total of 9 runs for the night and every run was in the 12's, Chris and I shared the driving duties.

Most 60 footers where in the 1.9's with one being 1.887

The runs where as followed

1/ 12.748 @ 105.06 mph (Chris driving)
2/ 12.930 @ 104.35 mph (Chris)
3/ 12.897 @ 104.54 mph
4/ 12.933 @ 106.29 mph
5/ 12.934 @ 104.51 mph
6/ 12.548 @ 107.21 mph (Chris)
7/ 12.757 @ 108.70 mph
8/ 12.672 @ 105.96 mph
9/ 12.684 @ 106.03 mph

The car was run as it is driven on the street except for using street radials on the rear on 16" steel rims and hard cover removed (and tailgate open)

The motor is unopened with just the usual bolt ons and edited.

We used one of Chris's baby convertors (as you can tell by the 60ft times)

The standard diff has been fitted with a set of gears which actually complement the day to day driving of the car.

Suspension is totally as from FPV (not even lowered)

Every body panel and trim was left on the car except for hard cover.
The exhaust was left on etc etc

I would like to thank Chris from Bluepower and Mick and Frank from APS frankston for all the time they have all helped with dyno'ing the car and with the editing.

The car is a pleasure to drive and is quiet and actually returned 11.9 l/100 on the way home from Calder

Extractors, cats and a modified X force system, SS 80 mm throttle body, Bluepower cold air intake, powerbond under drives, small convertor and 4.1 gears and the best thing is the Bluepower tune
