Well done, are you going to leave the turbo on for the suoersprint? Now that would be fun

yes Steve, Dean will be running at the supersprint and yes the turbo is staying on his bug . We did not go to all of this work to remove it and have
it stored in a box and put onto a shelf .
Dean is off to London on 1st July for 6 weeks training in the A320 airbus simulator . When he returns on 19th August , I may not be able to see him
before he hits the skies as a First Officer (co-pilot) for Jetstar ...... so I wanted him to have as much fun as he could before he gets tied up with
the massive pressure that he will be under when he resumes his training & career ......

Dean enjoyed himself immensly Ian , the fist punch was just a show of shear excitement after many late nights of work on his bug and acheiving
outstanding results once again .
The first run Dean left the line on fairly light throttle ( primary barrels only which is quite evident by the air/fuels around 6.2 )and made a pass
of 11.77@120mph . In the video you can see the ANDRA official lady walking away from Deans bug as he drives off into the pit area , she grabbed him at
the end of the return road and informed him that he went too fast for the event without a super-street licence ( cut-off is 12.0 secs ) . So off to
the scrutineering shed and $153 later Dean has a super-street licence and can continue to race .
The second run Dean gave it heaps more leaving the line with the secondary barrels open ( air/fuels now around 5.2 ) and he tells me that it felt
like his eyeballs crashed against the back of his skull , shifting through all the gears smoothly he felt that he had made the perfect pass for his
bug on the night 11.12@123mph , and the excitement was evident .  however , Dean almost made the super-street licence become
invalid as the cut-off for it is 11.0secs , any quicker and Dean would have needed an Unlimited licence and also upgrade his bug to Super-sedan specs
........
The third run Dean hammered it from the line , to have his bug break into wheelspin ( even feathering the throttle it would not gain traction ) and he
ran a 12.3@120mph

I took my girlfriend for a ride in the beetle yesterday and filmed her reactions with the GoPro. She said she thought it was pretty good until i
"flicked the switch" (6psi to 8.5psi) and then she was shocked at the power.

You have inspired me to turbo my type 4 2270. I am sending my Dellorto 45 DRLA's off to be machined into turbo dells and will run a blow through set
up.
This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.
