Default heathcote 17/9/06
Went to heathcote today just to do some runs that i wasn't able to do at the last drag day. First run out i did a 14.50@94.86 with a 60 foot time of 2.13. Had a few more runs around the 14.8 mark before getting a 14.61@94.32, 60 foot at 2.16 and a reaction time of 0.64. For the mods on this car i'm loving it and it's only get faster as time gose on.

A mate of mine went to calder about a month ago in his AUII XR8 220, stock besides a no name pod filter ran a best of 14.2, these AU XR8's arn't as slow as some people think.

Well done RspecAU im sure a Edit tune by G&D Would get it moving a bit quicker...

Excellent effort getting the AUII XR8 to a 14.5.

Look forward to your car getting 13's

I liked it better when you were doing 14.8's because it was the only way I was able to whoop you. So please, from now on, keep it in 14.8's will ya :

They definately aren't as slow as people think! I ran a 14.59 @ 94mph in my au1 Xr8 with the only mods being a K&N panel filter, switchable shift kit and lukey straight thru mufflers. That was almost 2 years ago...
