[evil1]

[INSINR8R]

yeah can't remember if its a TT402 or TT408ci stroker but fucking quick.


Well alot of people know that i have been itching to race my black coupe for months well yesterday i had the chance to run it,

I chose to run the car full weight as its driven on the street with the edition some slicks and an auto, the car is capable of well over 1000rwhp but was dialed in at around 720 for the first run just to feel things out,
So i stage the car stall it to around 3500rpm for a soft launch and let the car go HOLT SH!!T what a rush shifted early into top gear and shortly after half track hit the limiter so had to roll through sure enough when i got back to the pits and people were jumping around and officials were looking for a shotgun i got the time slip............9.49@136mph UNBELIEVABLE now i know with the torque converter tweaked and a diff ratio change a full power pass with a little more boost this car will run an 8 with huge MPH

Goes without saying that Eddy Tassone is the best in the buisness when it come to making rediculous amounts of power and running insane times in street cars

Needless to say im extatic and would have to be one of the quickest if not the quickest street ls1 in the land.......on its first pass

408ci.

Farkn L !!

That's intense. Does he still own the 9 second VL as well??

[INSINR8R]

I think he sold the shell but still has the engine

[JME]

Great to see that level of engineering being utilised. More please :D

[Kilma]

Does he plan on making the required changes to continue dragging it? I hope so. That'd be awesome to see down there on a regular basis.

Agreed!

[ACTIV8]

he wont cut into that car.. im guessing he will try and sneak down again once the changes are made

[INSINR8R]

just keep doing what he was doing.

he wouldn't cage the VL, this has less chance of copping a cage.

[I <3 Judd 0kw]

that thing is bombed!@:bj:

[S133LTR]

absoultely awsome

massive congrats to the guy

[AGIT8D]

it looks effortless eh.. i would've expected a much more violent launch for a mid 9 second pass. full congrats to shane and the active's team though, as if the first ~700rwhp stock LS1 t/t wasn't good enough!

[munchmunch]

how much power is this car making thats incredible for a fairly tame launch

[UD_LOSE]

in that state of tune was 720rwhp the whole run was farly soft as it was my first pass and off the footbrake, also the converter was very loose, still went 1.47 to 60ft not bad for a car over 4000lbs

[AGIT8D]

What now Shane? Daily or pull the motor and put it in something else?

[AGIT8D]

[Passage GT]
