SE-R or FWD Nissan for that matter.

This was at Englishtown last night! AWESOME run James!

Don Cooper (Don In Texas) ran a 12.8 with his AUTOMATIC maxima. Of course he's a supercharged with his own vb upgrade.

I think he was just stating that another person has been close to that time in a max.

And the fact that Don is an auto makes the 12.8 more amazing then the 12.6 in a 5spd.

What does the 240 got under the hood?

Don's Max is not supercharged. His 12.8 was all motor with NOS.

Hell yea, I've got a lot of respect for Farrer. He did allt he work on the car himself. Hell, he built the car in 3 monthes in his mothers garage largely without sponsership last year and was running 10 flat all day long. I believe his max ran 12.8 with a 140 of juice. He blew the motor a bunch of times as well as the tranny before deciding to build an SE-R.

Correction, he got 12.6, and sprayed 130 shot. He also only blew a RING on one cyl. one time that is it. He needed a daily driver so he fixed the car and didn't race it anymore and got a SE-R.

The tranny never had a problem either.

I talk to him at least 1-2 times a week....

Could be.....notice how you never see us post at the same time, or we "pretend" to be on different sides of the country.

I'm going back to Texas now....errr, I mean, I'm already here....

Thanks,

Jam....Don in Texas

Exactly. Thanks for the props, speednsound...

Anyways, Damn Don isn't supercharged ?? And man is that alot of NOS he is running. Well I thought he accomplished this awesome time w/o any Nitrous, but it's still pretty damn sweet.

Goes to show everyone automagics are still capable with a little tinkering.
