<![CDATA[Blurr 8.04 @ 168.8 mph]]>It was a good day at TM streetlegal today. Great weather and a good turnout. After waiting for my new/repaired converter to show up Friday, and not showing up... I finally stuck an old spare converter in the car this morning, we got finished around 11 o'clock and headed to the track. I ran a 8.37 @ 166 mph first pass out, doing a nasty wheelie and having to let off. Next pass was 8.28 @ 166 mph, launching without enough boost (but it didn't wheelie). For the 3rd pass we fired up the nitrous, launched ok and ran a 8.04 @ 168 mph. 🙂 I guess this old converter isn't so bad, ha. Tried for a 7 sec pass the 4th run, but after being run hard all year it decided 42 psi and a 150 shot was all it was going to take. Sorry about oiling the track. 😞 Here is the 8.04 pass.

Nice work dave that is great....

So what do you think it was? a rod failure or what?

Something smacked the oil pan and cracked it, so I'm guessing it was the rod. Find out for sure when I get it apart.

On a side note, according to Supraforums......

http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=350525

Dave's 8.04 leaves puts him in a tie for the 4th quickest MKIV Supra!!!!!!! (I would assume Dave's slower MPH would bump him to the 5th place slot)

Way to go Dave and Matt!!!!
