Hey guys
I decided to give my n/a ba xr6 a run at heathcote. The car actually surprised me, I honestly thought my car would do a 15.5 - 15.8. My best run was a 15.0 @ 93.5mph and that was my 2nd run out of the 8 I did. My 60ft time was 2.2. The worst time I did was a 15.3 so overall I was very happy with the car's performance. The only mod I have done is the typhoon 2nd hole box. |

Well done on your time.

Yeah that's a great time and an awesome 60ft time I might add. I seem to get mostly low 2.4's and the odd 2.3.

Great time there for a stock car (lets face it, the intake isnt a huge mod so its basically stock). Certainly one of the fastest BA XR6 NA's I've come across and definatly the fastest stock one.
Couldnt mis my car, I was parked near the control tower with 6 guys trying to reef a stuck wheel off the back.

My previous car was a BA ghia v8 and the best time I got in that was also a 15.0 with a 2.2 60ft time....So this xr6 of mine surprised me lol. I apologize if the time slip isn't clear, my scanner isn't the best.. |
