Special thanks to HPE for the dyno session.

Track notes-- fuel presure regulator went out on the dyno. Air was all over the place, when I got to the track the car wouldn't even start to get off the trailer!! Talked about pissed, drive 10 hrs get to the track and the car wont even start.I took the vacume line off and fuel came pouring out. On top of the car not running her best, i ran out of gear. Crossing the traps around 7,000rpm!!! On an earlier run of 12.35 i hit 5th gear b/c , but no help in times. I plan on putting different gears and some better tires. The best i could get was a 1.76 60' , the car has pulled a 1.70.. The car didn't run as fast as I talked, but she should pull some better numbers later this summer.

Good luck to all that go for either bolt-on record, they have been held for 2yrs, till now.

I will get a vid posted this week, along with a pic of the slip.(HRP doesn't show times on test n tune)

Yes its a 10 bolt, but i put an aurburn posi and 4.11's.. Race weight is around 3400lbs.

Thanks Steve for the compliment, maybe this will inspire more all bolt-on cars. I would like to give you a reason to come back to the bolt-on class, at least for a day or two. Damn stock fuel presure regulator went out on me.

Re: Bolt-on M6 Record Beat after 2yrs.

I was down at HRP when this car ran....
Truely amazing....
This bolt-on car ran very impressive times despite the fuel pressure regulator problems it was having....
Once he gets all those bugs worked out with the fuel and gearing issues.... Its going to scream
