Nice run! That's one fast Cobra you have there.

As long as you smash the commondoor I am happy.

Default All the specs

Blair, commodores are no contest!!! Notice how the Cobra drowned out the other thing, side pipes are one of the few pleasures in life.

Plums, must admit I am a little hooked now, it is very relaxing and lots of fun.

All the specs

Air Temp 22c
Rel Humidity 77
Abs Barrometer 29.98
Track Temp 42c


r/t .586
60' 1.934
330' 5.140
660' 7.742
MPH 95.92
1000' 9.911
ET 11.761
MPH 118.48
Kph 190.68

I would not be allowed back at the moment, it was a bit of a negotiation to get the second pass. I promised to roll off but went quicker.

However, we have worked out a way to get a removable cage built, have a meeting with NSW ANDRA Tech on Saturday, if all ok will have cage done in 2 weeks.

Default Whats the diff

HI Rebel1,
I have a Tremec that I bought from the ford racing catalogue, it is rated at 600 foot pounds, "improved shift forks and one piece counter shaft" and the ratios are 2.92 1.89 1.28 1.00 .82.

The original T5 shifted much better than this one, I would like to see if I can improve the shifts.

Diff ratio 3.45:1 LSD

Rear Tyre size 275 40 17 MT ET streets.

Phil

Thanks Phil, That's the TR600 model.....same as mine. That's why my interest.

They wont be as slick a shift as the T5 but will smooth out heaps when you get some miles on them.

Your engine would tear a T5 to pieces.

No offence Phil, but 1.9xx 60ft is bloody shocking!!! There is heaps left in that machine, you should (fairly easily) be able to get down to 1.6xx 60's and 11.2xx ET's without much trouble at all!!!!
Awesome stuff, I am sooo jealous....

I am EXTREMELY interested in your removable cage, I'd love to get the details when it's completed....

Default Watch it buddy.

Absolutely no offence taken.

I will always be the weakest link in the car.

That is what I mean by a lot left in the tank, I just don't want to hard launch yet, I was not sure how the car would feel with the MTs.

Will go harder next time,

I will post some pics of the cage when done.

Phil
