COME-1 Torana runs 8.49 at WSID Nitro Champs
The COME-1 Torana was in the air again at the Nitro Championships at Sydney's WSID race track recently.
Issy was all strapped in again and ran the cars best time ever with the Holden 383ci engine after it was recently freshened and fitted with our latest 2004 series alloy VN style heads.
Car recorded an 8.49 ET at over 158 mph. The startline was excellent yeilding a 1.22 60ft short time.
Thanks to Peter Colburn Photos for the use of his well taken image of the car in flight.
Now it's back to the drawing board to see how soon we can stuff our complete all alloy COME Racing engine into the car with a bit more nitrous and run into the 7's. As they say, you don't know till you try.
We will again use the Torana as our mobile test bed for developing some new combinations and a few other parts we are looking at possibly manufacturing.
