Well after a short drag race with the 75 24V, I lost 1,2,5,R. Cruised home on 3rd & 4th. Now I fixed. It's the iso linkage. The small balljoint which was missing a nut on the other end.

Were you drag racing Nizam's 24v? Is his hard core race car by now? Which one is faster?

No, Louis' new car (Chip's ex-car). He didn't have good tires so I think he didn't have a good launch. My car actually beat his. I think he was at my rear bumper by 3rd gear. If launched well with grippy tires I'm confident the 24V would beat my car.

Last year I saw Chip's 24v do 205HP at the rear wheels. How much, approximately, is yours?

195 or 205 rwhp? Chip posted in his for sale ad as only 195 rwhp. My car only has about 180 rwhp. Since then I've ported the intakes, modified the fuel and ignition maps, and put a nicer air filter. I really doubt it's making anything past 190 rwhp.

Maybe it was 195 HP, I thought it was 205 HP - I'm sure Chip knows better. Your 190 rwhp is still pretty good.

I'd be happy if it has 190 rwhp. But I seriously doubt it. Possibly just luck or something which caused Louis car to fall behind. My car feels more like 180+ rwhp.
