******** VIDEO IS HERE*********
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6fB73OAwko
After a long week of getting customer's cars out of the shop, we decided to take time off and head to Moroso to try to dial in the SRWD MR-2. owned and driven by Tony Baumgartner.
Last weekend the car's rear end felt a little loose at about the 1000 ft mark yet ran a 10.30 @ 122 letting off on 3rd gear. We knew the car had alot left in it. We went back to the track today and ran a 9.88 @ 133 right off the trailer.... and on the 2nd pass the car went 9.72 @ 144 mph with a 1.44 60'!!!!!!!
the car still has alot left in it... a datalog on the AEM shows a maximum psi of 26.8 on the map sensor..... hopefully we can have it at 35 psi for the Moroso December 9th event......
anyways...whats the quickest MR-2 anyone knows of Mike Colon, Jeffrey Burke,???? maybe HUX racing?????
****EDIT****

Yea, green one with exhaust tips sticking out of the bumper. It did low-mid 12s or so, didn't it? It's not on BOTI's website for some reason, even though that's the event I saw it run at last.
I just wanted to congratulate you guys for the hard work. It pay off...
Good job
Lets get ready for more BOOST

1.44 was on D/R's? I always wondered why some few people exploit the MR2's potential. RWD, motor planted above the rear tires, factory turbocharged, sounds like a hell of a combination. I suppose I'm guilty as well, Honda's just seem more economical in terms of parts being readily available.
the car runs 26x10.5x15 et streets
@ 14 psi of air....
PS: gravy the civic is almost done.......were going full speed ahead and should have it running by next week...
