Hit the Hubs at @wmd.evo to see what we could break... didn't break anything (apart from the dyno record) but found some restrictions as always.. yet more upgrades already brought but its safe to say its a 1XXX @ flywheel car now. Keeping the numbers to myself for now until the cars done some work. Thanks as always to my pals 💛
Quick recap of the weekend.. turned up did some rips, won...
189.7mph in the half mile, not bad especially since later finding out we was down on power a little... DW a fix is coming for that soon.. stay tuned.. you think this thing was fast before.. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 im going alllll in, two feet in...
Amazing event as always by Rix and team, ran smoothly how it should be
I deserved my a$5 kicking..
The MR2 FINALLY made a solid pass at LOW BOOST.

Always promised id post the lows if/when they came... So, here is a low.. split the cast block bore at racewars... it actually run like this for 75% of the passes 🤣 and still won the class on 3.5 cylinders! shit happens i choose a solid block with minimal core shift and plenty of meat still around the important bits.. still got bitten. Is what it is, these things happen! Most just hide it (trust me I know, as they come running to me to fix it 🤣) last photo is the fix for the problem... i did say i was going all in in my last post 🤟
P.S im not sure on the power it was making on the day.. I turned it up after the dyno plus side exit so will have been close to 4 digits
Hit @wgmotorworks dyno with the new engjne, nothing has changed setup wise other than a high compression fire ring 2.2L bottom end. Left it at 920bhp for now and capped the torque at under 700lbft to add longevity with room to grow if (when) I get bored.... . The new engine bumped over 140 miles total on this pull from first Start 🤙 As always thanks to my friends for the assistance. Time to get some test hits in before @racewars_uk in 2 weeks... PS anyone wanna sponsor me a Mainline HUB dyno.. I'll love you forever 😂
