Ha ha! Couple of months... Someone had a dig at the old one not being turbo.. I can't remember who. If it was true to form the signature thing should
have gad no box, wheels or engine and the wing in a box on the roof! for a good 3 or 4 months now!

Sorry for highjacking your post guys.
Here is a video from back then, somewhere around 1991 , it was VW powered and turboed if I remember correctly. This was during the IVWA days , the
next two guys racing were Todd Howard and Tommy Tanner , lots of fond memories, Mike McCarthy

built .
If remove someone and you have or know that they have run 12's , tell me
To race at a National meeting you have to run 12's ( Super Street )
Cheers

Yes Pete, last year he ran at VW Showdown @ WSID and ran 12.99 @ 103mph on street tyres ( NA with 139hp @ the wheels ) ..... Deans bug was then fitted
with bigger heads , exhaust etc and made 166hp @ the wheels when he ran 8.1 at Warwick 2012 on street tyres ..... and apparently 166hp @ the wheels is
not enough !! so we have now turbo-charged his bug for the VW drags @ WSID 2013 , with 256hp @ the wheels on just 8psi boost

Dragster runs my signature 2332cc with 48 IDAs. Engine is mounted behind the driver with gearbox out the back (like a Vee). An extension between the
rear slicks joins the box and motor.
