First and foremost I need to thank Paul Chism for giving me the opportunity
to Play with his Toy...(drive his Car)
I wanted to understand more about Twin Turbo Charged Small Blocks... never
did I expect to learn so much so fast....
Paul's Jag Makes Huge horsepower... on the order of 1200-1400 but most
impressively it makes 1000lbs of Torque....(tire twisting types of Torque
that John Force wouldn't sneeze at)
we took it up to Maxton and made 5 Passes... the first was a check out run
at 178 and the Second and fastest at 200.758 Mph..... and the next three
where I got Paul looking around the pits for someone that could Drive... I
short shifted the last to a worst pass of 170 mph... the car gets real
loose at 180-185 and it simply caused me to lift rather then sacrifice my
life....
Awesome car and My first entry into a Two Club.... The Maxton Mile is a
neat place to run and honestly I am glad it was the first Place to go 200
mph for me... it has given me the opportunity to really participate in the
sport of Land speed racing... and again the ECTA put on a great meet....
