Though I can't recall how well\how high of quality it was, I did catch the run on my vid camera and will hopefully MPEG it soon. I got the 10.66 one too.

Fastest import in Canada? or what? I know there's a Talon in the States that ran 9.49 last year and is promising 8's this year.

That is the fastest time I have heard for Canada though.

Congrats... I can only dream of that hole shot...

The record is 10.6x because he ran a 10.56 and the 10.6x was the run to back it up. If he runs another 10.56 or faster he will have the record ar 10.56.

Hey bobby, did you hapen to get my 13s pass on tape?

Damn jeff's car is kickin ass now.
I saw it on TV but I guess it was havin some problems so i only got to see one run. I hope you get those MPEGs up Bobby [Linked Image]

Some sweet cars I saw while watchin the drags on TV is, Rau's Eclipse, he said he has a best run of 9.180 or somethin like that!

The buschur racing car too, also that Ford Focus with 1400 hp, hoping to run 6's. It ran a 7.5 180+ mph. They didn't even have it tuned to nominal power hehe, damn but I guess anyone stick an engine like that in with 2 turbo's and kick some ass. The Buschur car is runnin the 2.0L with only one Turbo. I would say that's how it should be.


92 TSI, best project Ever!!

Thanks guys,

It was a kick ass pass, I'm so damn happy, finally I've been working on this car for over a year, remember It was destroyed rolled over, and I had to completely restore the thing, then I had to get it to run tens.


Ten seconds, is quite a rush, I can't wait to do it in my talon ;-)

I put up some pics and timeslips
http://www.magnusmotorsports.com/slips.htm

BTW Vince, the record is 10.56, I ran a 10.66 first then I backed it up. It must be backed up within the same day, and be close enough for the number to stand. I always wondered about that myself

I thought it was the other way around. How close do you have to be to the 10.56 to "back it up" 0.1s or something like that?

Marco what was that orange 2g rx7 running, In one of the pictures you were lined up with it.

As I was driving up to St. Thomas, I see what looked to be a blue rx7 getting pulled by a school bus, as I got closer I see that it is a blue rx7. I'm thinking to my self "who's this guy pulling his car with a freekin school bus".......and sure enough it was Marco with the rx7. lol It was a pretty funny sight. I thought I saw a kid in the back crying because you missed his stop. [Linked Image]


There is some talk about who's going to be the first in the 9's, a lot of the honda guys are saying it will be that white honda....you can't let that happen Marco.

Whay you running, turbo and nos, or just turbo?
