Don't know if anyone has posted it yet, but I saw it on my myspace....


"Quote MattM"
We headed out to Knoll Gas Motorsports Park today for their test/tune session. The first pass out of the trailer, I set the boost controller to 22 psi. I didn't get a good burnout, so I launched at 4 psi. I bumped the boost to 24 in the back half.
This was good enough to take the record back by a significant margin:

60' 1.
4232
1/8 5.6610 @ 129.
00mph
1/4 8.7292 @ 159.
52mph

For the second pass, we dropped the tire pressure a little, got a little better burnout, and launched at 7 psi.


60' 1.
3560
1/8 5.5823 @ 128.
88mph
1/4 8.6582 @ 158.
97mph

Then they glued the track. Watching a few RWD cars ride the wheelie bars well past the sixty foot, I decided to get more aggressive. We dropped the tire pressure a little more, set the boost controller to run 26 psi the whole pass, and got a better burnout. I launched at 9 psi and it stuck! Unfortunately this was too much for the drivetrain. Something let go about 1 second into the run and it reved to about 8000 RPM. At first glance it appears that the driver side axle let go, but we have not torn into it yet.

that's funny, my local forum here has 2000+ members with quite a few Turbo GP's. The ZZP 1/8 mile trap is higher than all of their 1/4 mile traps lol, and the last 1/8 mile is where they get all their speed.

Ya know, I knew that car was amazingly fast, but I was still shocked when I watched that video. If I didn't know better, I'd say it was sped up. I WANT A RIDE! lol

the black turbos are Turbonetics GT-K 500 turbos very pricey and had a very promising outcome which is obviously showing through that built, but turbonetics has been having some problems with them hope zzp stays free and clear of them
