VERY NICE...................tell us more, how many cc's, HP etc. 
look's like a weapon !! 
 
My brother inlaw has just done a 9.2 in his rotary, that's with 600hp at the wheels. This Type 1 must be pumping out some power!!!

Had some problems on the Dyno, 
Ended up re-building the whole thing for the following 
weekend. 
Did a gentle settling in Pass ( way too Rich ) and got 10.4 sec 
and 130.5 MPH. 
- turned Up wick a little on second run and got 10.36 sec 
and 129.88 MPH . 
but checking in Pits found something was wrong and 
wanted to pull motor down to check before any more runs so that was all we got.

Cam, the twin blower set up made Heaps more boost  
than I imagined. The Excessive boost caused Big Problems in the Engine. 
Mike's development has Now gone beyond what a Type 1 case can  
deliver. 
Mike has decided to move to the next stage of his Drag car development..............  we will all have to wait and see. 
and yes he will get into the high 9's, but this then puts doubt on the chassis ability to keep it straight - will get Hairy.!
