DoughBoy Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Great time, but damn did he have to make the car look so ugly with that front bar? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/96519-reece-mcgregor-8033172/#findComment-1751669 Share on other sites More sharing options...
benm Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Another great time however it's quite annoying that pretty much all sub-10sec Imports look absolutely nothing like the factory design. I'm sure if these professionals spent as much time in a wind tunnel as they do at the engine builders workshop they'd go even faster.

Morgs Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Yeah agreed, looks horrible ! I guess if you've got a front bar like that you've got to be able to back it up Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/96519-reece-mcgregor-8033172/#findComment-1751759 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris32 Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I think you'll find the reason for the very quick time and huge MPH was in fact, due the car itself, wanting to shed that awful wing and front bumper! Nice time BTW Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/96519-reece-mcgregor-8033172/#findComment-1752016 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NXTIME Posted November 29, 2005 Author Share Posted November 29, 2005 Great time, but damn did he have to make the car look so ugly with that front bar? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It definitely not there for its looks. The aim is to make the air go around the car, not under it. Looks ugly, but it works. Running methanol so need for a cooler or any ducting. The extra power that it supposed to be making doesn't hurt. Car will be back out in two weeks aiming for a 7. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/96519-reece-mcgregor-8033172/#findComment-1752028 Share on other sites More sharing options...
