Angry Ttboss Back On The Move!!

TTBOSS came second in its class at Summernats with absolutley no preparation and only missed first place by less than 3HP!

Will be there again in 2008 and this time prepared to win! Sadly I was the only FORD there amongst the Holden fraternity. Where are all the FORD supporters!!

Actually great on the road with this soft tune and a high stall converter. Makes it much more user friendly on the road.

As for the track, ABSOLUTELY! I should be doing some preliminary testing over the next few weeks and I will keep you in the loop. :

Yeah but I think I was lucky too as there were a few cars that blew up as well (all holdens).
Hope there is some FORD representations in 2008.

556HP at the wheels on pump gas and soft tune.

I was happy with that but I expect much better on a better tune and fuel.
