Who is going this year?
What one are you going to go to? I think there only one week apart, but the Cooma one is near full.. 85 spots taken so far.. The list of fords are FORD CAPRI FALCON FALCON G6E TURBO FALCON XR6 TURBO MUSTANG GT500.. 14 Holdens so far that will be there, so it looks like it's a V8 supercar grid lol.. Not sure who has put there name down for Temora.. I'll be going for a look and a fish while I'm there.. |

The Capri is going to get a tad wobbly as you approach 300!
Hope to christ you ditch those front runners LOL Aero beyond 280 is rather important, how fast has the Capri been driven?

will look into the M/T SR's, we have plenty of time to find a suitable tyre, i'm pretty sure with the eBoost2 and the tuning side of things, we can get any half decent tyre to hook up.
tex, the car has been around 300km/h a few times at PowerCruise type events, it's extremely settled at that speed. there is a couple Capri's running in the 200mph+ zone at the track, with just the aid of a Pro Stock syle rear spoiler, it's such a good car at around 170mph so smooth going down the 1/4. we will make a judgement call after a few passes, if it get's too dangerous we will just take it easy, we are just doing it for fun, we aren't going out to break any records or anything. we would love to run 300km/h even 200mph/h but if it's too dangerous it's not worth pushing it. |

Thats great to read paulie, wasn't sure if you boys had had the Capri up to those lofty heights.
As you know, the difference between 250kmh and 270, and then 290... Or 300 is dramatic. While I've never been up there, (300) I've been north of 250 indicated ny Speedo, and things start to get real interesting real quick, for every extra single kmh it seems! But hey, you guys are old hands at warp factor 5, so not my place to sound like the concerned citizen lol. Cant wait to hear how the old girl goes mate, go rip some exotic assessment to shreds! Ps I'm shocked power cruise events provide opportunity to run up to 300!!!!! Nice.
