Default Quickest and Fastest with an 88mm turbo

I was racing at the shakedown at Norwalk in X275 trim. During testing I decided to run it out the backdoor and had a new personel best. All times are in X275 trim and weight. I also had a new best in the 1/8th. I'm the first LS based X275 car to run in the 60's.

F'n WOW Ray!

Still laughing that 90% on this forum still thinks your cross over pipes are too big for boost.

Keep killing the game old man!

That's awesome Ray! Congrats. The 7.26 @ 198 in the quarter is pretty wild too! Might break the 200 MPH mark on a single 88 if you get the right weather.

This was thursday and it was almost 80* when I ran the 7.26
When I ran the 4.67 it was in the mid 40's. The 1/8th mile MPH was only 153 on the quarter mile run. It was 6 higher on the record 1/8th mile run. Just wait until MIR next month

Awesome job Ray! A lot of hardwork and determination paying off right there! I am hoping to carry on a little of your tradition using your ex-9" rear end! haha

Looking forward to next month when you go to MIR.
