WHat times do you think I am capable with MT street radials on?

Should be 330-340rwkw on liquid lpg, 6sp man... BA MK II...

Think I can get in the 12's?

Ran a 13.9 @ 108mph with a 3s 60 foot (pathetic I know. Street tyres and stuffed stock clutch) Also backed off as it was my first drive and didn't know how long I had to slow down!!! Guess you have to have your first sometime!!!

Upgraded to Mal Woods... Hopin to get my time down soon...

On street tyres, I cant get traction in 1st, the top of second, and sometimes in 3rd... Dunno about 4th yet :-)

yeh with a good drive it will easy do a 12. don't dump it use the hand brake stall it to 4000rpm, load it at that and slip the clutch off the line,don't spin, then with nice clean gear changes, she should have a mid 12 easy.

gave my car a run on the dyno today, still stock motor with valve springs, 21 psi 444rwks through c4 and stall 98octane fuel with some octane booster.

I must admit I was a little worried at 1st when I had my head on the intake manifold listening for detonation, but she pulled through nicely! I know I said to stop when we hit 575rwhp, but when you ran 596rwhp, I wanted you to run again for that 600rwhp mark! Maybe it was for the best that we did stop!

By the way - your entered into Saturday's dyno comp too Dave. I think its $70 or something to enter - pay on the day. I'm sure you'll win

it was already over what I was after, and way to much for a stocker.

First run out in my F6 since Ford fixed it. Previous was 14.2

Ran 13.1 @ 110MPH, with a .55 light and 2.15 60 ft. Track cooled off real quick Friday night, reckon I could have got 12's. Pretty happy with the times seeing it is stock, especially the MPH.

does anybody know the fastest 1/4 time for a (barra) 6T powered car?

[senna_T]

Click HERE Mate, there's some stout competition out there nowadays...

[Tocchi]

cheers I hope the list will include other fords powered by the motors, not just the actual BA/BF shape.

[senna_T]

I haven't heard of any barra motors going faster than 9.64 in anything but that BA sedan, so I'd back that to be the fastest barra engined vehicle in OZ, can't say I've looked for anything different though...

[Tocchi]

sweet I better get my ass into gear (im putting a F6 motor in Capri ... car ran 8s with the clevo 383)
