18/07/09 11:28 AM18/07/09 11:28 AM #3 I hope prep work means laying down some new bitumen and a deccent return road
18/07/09 11:33 AM18/07/09 11:33 AM #4 yeah we wish. We love it, it wouldnt be the same without the half gravel staging lane, dirt pits & nearly non existant return road. I think last time I only got water put down once on the burnout patch & starting line wasnt even looked at. This makes it even more amazing for the time that was done. Well done all round im spewin I wasnt down there to have a looksie. Edited 18/07/09 11:33 AM18/07/09 11:33 AM by qik1

19/07/09 09:50 AM19/07/09 09:50 AM #10 Author Bretts car is a non intercooled Ken Bell equiped BF GT Auto, with water injection, I tuned it a while ago now, but he has since put a nos kit on it, as well on top of the tune (said he checked it and everything is sweet, so we will see)he said he used a 50 jet I don't know how they count there jets, (someone else might know) but he thought it was about 30-40 shot.he is now going to pull it off, and fit a intercooled manifold on it so it can run this power all the time, insted of running the gas to cool things down, he used slicks, and front runners.
