Sounds like there is going to be a couple of Simons Cpr builds there this weekend for the radar runs, any TY’ers going to attend?
 

Well It was bitterly cold there this weekend and the numbers were pretty good for 600’ on snow, unfortunately I didn’t manage to pull it off as there was another turbo there that beat me by 5kms., of course he was set up with a few more pounds than I was. I’ll let him toot his own horn, but I managed a best of 167kms. bouncing off the rev limiter all the way down the track. Guess I’ll have to throw more weight at it for the next one, and crank the boost a little, that's if the horn tooter gets my gauges in for me, :moon:
Another friend of mine (Jeff) managed a decent 141kms. with a stock 07 RTX, he’s has a turbo on the way now!!!!!!
Here’s a video clip that someone posted on youtube, enjoy.

Yeah, we had a best pass of 172 KMS at about 12lbs boost. For the metric-challenged, that's about 107 MPH on snow. We were smacking the rev limiter pretty hard too - almost impossible to hook up after 100 sleds have torn up the track...

Don - you did awesome considering we probably had 5 lbs boost on you and a better track for the conditions. The Ballicker should be interesting in a few weeks. We'll get Jeff's kit installed this week and hopefully FJO will have the gauges in stock for you guys. I think it's going to take over 140 MPH to win this year.
