Is there a video? send it to Harrop, they were claiming the fastest s550 in Aus. Glad to see that this build has stripped them of the title

lol ease up. There will always be a faster car. Fyi Intune ran 10.2 the week before.

Harrops run as the "first mustang into the 10s" was just false, they made a big deal about it on facebook, instagram, youtube. Yeah they build some great cars, but ease up on the sauce, 10s have been done before by quite a few different companies

Bs marketing just annoys me, I don't think it advances their product just makes them seem silly.

still a bit in it, we needed to get a base and take it from there, confident with a 6-7psi launch we can get it into the 1.3's, the converter is on point, extremely happy with it.

RaceStar 18x5 front, 17x9.5 rear, 305/45/17, 20psi cold

we did the same tyre conversion on the workshops NA VF2 SSV it makes 312rwkw went from an 11.42@120 with factory size wheels to 11.25@122 with the lighter tyre package. you might gain a tenth with an NA car but won't see a huge gain with forced induction.

we left the shocks in the factory position, but, we will have to play with it a little bit.

the video of the pass is on the Northmead BookFace page https://www.facebook.com/northmeadautocentre/

new PB for the Mustang, ran a 9.26 down at Heathcote last weekend.

the NAC boys are now going to do a supercharged Mustang, will be using the factory 6R80 6-speed auto, seeing as noone else is really doing a turbo, they want to fight fire with fire. look for it to be out within the next month or so.

Given the condition of the track, that is a crazy fast time mate!

we tried to give it a go one pass but it didn't hold it, just kicked out. footbrake launch about 4-5psi seemed way to go. had 3 passes, because of the cold air was seeing almost a psi more boost

1st - 9.35 very happy as was over a tenth slower in 60'
2nd - kicked out off the line, tried 7psi launch
3rd - 9.26 seemed to leave nicely, though a half tenth slower over the 60' compared to Sydney
