nice freakin huge snail shells. do you plan on listening to the ocean while putting 10second time slips up?

soooo true, 2004 will be a testing and information gathering year for team Performance Motorsport and it's new 350Z Pro-Rwd drag car, so we may break, blow, or beat the best... only time and experience will tell.

Keep a lookout for more info on the team and it's upcomming event listing.

10 seconds...we are shooting for low 7's out of the box, we would need to get to the mid to high 6's to beat the boys at Bullish Racing and Street Glow... that may not happen this year.

this is pretty optimistic, don't you think? you think your gonna roll the car out of the trailer and run some 7 second passes..don't know if that will happen, but good luck to you and maybe it will work out that way. has andrew got his license? did he go to drag racing school(not trying to be a dick) theres a big difference between running 11's and runnig 7's, big difference.. again good luck with it..jay

andrew like all drivers that make a change in the car they drive will have a learning experience ahead. our job is to give him the tools needed to be the best he can be, with a little luck we will prevail.

we are not releaseing info on our car at this time.

Andrew has his license and has gone to drag racing school.

regarding out of the box racing come on, with the car set-up correctly, and my fat *** in the seat, and 1700 HP, and a little training even I could get to the 8's i think... hey thats an idea.. get me behind the wheel. yeh.....

going to contemplate my future...hehe..., just kidding

Read you little article on your website but I think you got alot more than Bullish Racing to worry about.
That turbo looks like what I use in my Civic Hatch. Mine is Precision PT61 T4 config and it only support up to 680HP. Even with two, I don't think you can push 1700HP.

wheres the hate i just stated he's real optimistic and theres a big difference between driving a 11 second car and a high 6 low 7 second car i'm not doubting the kids driving skills, i was just curious if he's gone to a drag racing school to get his license and get a feel for a 7 second car, thats all.. their are alot of thing that need to be watched and setup when running such a fast car, that s my reasoning for calling him optimistic..

also, when i say he's optimistic..i'm talking about him stating they plan to go right in the 7 's off the trailer(out of the box as he stated)

i have no doubt if they make the power he's claiming and get the car sorted out , it should deffinetly be a very low 7 second if not high 6 second car..the bullish cars make around 14-1600 hp at the wheels and are dogs for the first 60 feet(bullish themselves have stated that once they get the car to launch harder they should see 6.60 easy.. jay

chill people.. we will keep you all posted... root for us..... to fail or succeed...but root for us . the sport needs more teams.

Evo, the pics on the site are NOT the turbos in this car, they are the PE set-up for the Z street cars...see pics in this thread... i do not think our two turbos will fit in your Civic

Damn that's a big *** turbo for a Z!

Looks like a t4 flange - you must be crazy.

Keep up the good work and keep us posted.

those turbos are too small to make 1700hp. better tell caldwell to slap on some bigger ones.
