That piece of paper was a time slip from a previous run, you can see it work it's way across the dash and fall off going up the hill. Another thing you can't see in this video is the bootlid, which came up during this run under brakes into the second corner. I hesitated for a moment thinking whether or not I should abort the run then just though f*** it. Lucky I didn't as it turned out to be the quickest run of the day.

A quicker steering ratio would be awesome, but don't really know if it's a possibility, and even if it is, probably not worth the money. There are plenty of better ways to improve the car before doing that.

That thing goes hard, nice work there.
Like the special effects, the paper flying down from the left side of the windscreen.

Would be good to have a shorter ratio steering box.

Champion effort mate.

I was eyeing off the EFI setup but the funds are a little fine at the moment. Perhaps in the near future.

it's still the same engine I put in about 18 months ago, seems to be getting stonger with every event. A15 with 79mm b-projects pistons, standard crank and rods albeit polished and shotpeened, arp rod bolts, camshaft reground by wade cams in melbourne, can't remember what grind, just told the bloke what sort of stuff I do and let him figure something out. H89 head, standard valves, double valve springs, ports opened up a little bit and smoothed out. Induction is 45mm efi hardware throttle bodies run by a haltech e6x
So it's all fairly standard stuff, just the usual hotting up stuff done. Haven't ever had it on a dyno other than an old water retarded one, it came up with figure of 120hp at the wheels which could be about right.
I do run a 4.875 diff ratio which helps it accelerate pretty well.

I know it's an A15 EFI but some detail would be great.

The crackle from the induction is great.

Aidan, what sort of power is your engine producing, it picks up really quite quickly.

Chris

EDIT: Just watched it again. That thing is feckin' flying, nice work.
