hope your gonna be taking a second of your best 0-60 Tib yes I said second!! haha if you dont I will
my best 0-60ft was 1.61 which is high 2sec to 60mph but this was at pod on prepped track, 3.9 at brunters bogging the engine, best to the 1/8th mile has been 7.28@102 the day it broke!!! never made the full 1/4 under power, will post timing slip tomorrow.

No gas to 100, as was using road tyres & the gas just made it worse.
Rod
ps. 15" bfg should see 0-100 in the 6's best that can be hoped for.

above my 0to60ft was 2.093 which was on standard transmission
I bet with a better set of tyre's your's will be as quick or if not quicker mind you that's if the diff hold's out

aslong as your happy mate but if you find a good standard shell then buy it and put it away as by the time you think of doing another the prices will be through the roof

Could always rob the YB out of the Pug or chances are I may still have the Honda engine if no one ends up buying that !

Ha ha this was all a few years back!!! yes it had a mustang 8.8 rear axle with my own ladder bar set up, worked well and ran 12.2's on 260hp oil burner engine. the car needed alot more power as it could be launched of the rev limiter.. sadly I sold it to help fund my business.

Thanks for the PM Danny.
Looks like the 6 degree is the better option for a road car.

If I do build another car for myself it will be a circuit car. I spent hours on the saph as I loved doing it and learnt so much and to be honest its thanks to that car as it helped kick start my own business 51/2yrs ago along with my F150 Lightning (which I still got)!! wow time flies!!
