Kims SQP Stroker ran up 11.51@123mph NA looks like with some diff issues

The car made just over 289rwkw on the dyno with its revamp through the TH400

Be interesting to see where the fast guys are in 6 months

NO WAY IN THE WORLD!!!!!

As much as HQ and I have had some differences of opinion, he would never lie. Nope, I just racked my brain again.... SQP does not lie.

Kim's car must have ran 123mph! Again, congratulations!!!

And the benchmark rises once again. Well done Big Fella!!!

Imagine!!

What will happen if we can ever workout how to get these shit rear ends to hookup. We all have HP but cant put it down. With that mph and a half decent hookup, it would be a great time!!

looks like the second run was 11.49@122 and some change, definately no nitrous and weight change was only spare and jack

They were planning for a 121\2 mph with the engine revamp and "some new stuff" ®

its a great result

yeah good stuff, congrats to Kim and SQP.
There was a few LS1's there, but none sounded as tough as the stroker :demon:

My best pass a 12.67 sec @ 111.66 mph.

Good to meet a few other blokes from the forums :thumbsup:

back in town now after a major thrash at the WinterNational. We won Top Alchohol with the Dragster and set low ET and highest MPH with the Doorslammer (6.095@ 234.99mph-record is 6.094:doh:)

The weather was perfect!

Kim ran the stroker as you know at Kwinana. The track was crap as there is no prep here in the off season.

His new best is now 11.49et.N/A. 123.79mph is his new top speed. The 60' was a slow 1.798 on the 11.49 pass as the hydrotrac isn't cutting it any longer and it's hard to go fast spinning one tyre. Converter is a tight 3200rpm ready for the bottle and the rear is still 3.91:1....no the ideal na set up.

Thanks for your support guys....and Matt- when the bottle is on the the 250 shot I have for it....you will know!! :burnout:

We now need to be careful so as not to run under the 11.00 when we take it back with new slicks, sorted rear and track prep in 6 weeks time as 123.79mph is well and truly good for a real low 11. Looking at the logs there is still a couple of more mph in there.......

Then we will arm the bottle..........:cheers:

Cam can you update the quick list please.

Note the time of day....12:22pm. Not a huge air advantage there!

Installed the CIG spool today so back down on Sunday to get an ET to match the mph.:)
