Didn't take long for someone to ask! ;41

I think Boschie should handle that one but he's on holidays in QLD with his family still! (http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a335/Andrews_pics/Smilies/willy_nilly.gif)

His time after that burnout was a 17 flat!  ;laugh

I think that run was just a cool down.

The sidepipes really help dispurse the smoke - I might invest in a set!  ;46

I'm still here on Holiday's! I was just after a good burnout! I wasnt after and wasnt expecting a good 1/4 time! I only had just finished putting in a mega dollar diff/half shafts only 2 days before without testing AT NO STAGE WAS I GOING TO RISK DOING SOME DAMAGE! So next best think was to give the engine a bit a caneing! Remember spinning wheels = no diff damage! However I did give a half a go on the 1/4.....the wheels just spun for half the track! So why bother trying over and over! Once I get some wheels for my slicks then I might have a go! And Also I set this Vette up mainly for Circuit tracks NOT 1/4 mile!

I think we all realise that a good 1/4 time was not on the agenda!  I'm sure it shut a few meece up.  ;-)

Thanks for ripping into it and driving it like what it was built for!

Awesome burnout! Sounds like you've got it sitting on the rev limiter.;46

Yeah I set the rev limiter @ 6000! I heard it whilst doing the burnout but I had too  full adrenaline to take my foot off!
