I must say, this best friend of mine should be staying in America instead of Malaysia. His dreams of becoming a professional drag racer proves that his been spending too much money on EBay and American parts.
Been a friend of Aloysius for few years. His a man with dreams, less budget and sick ideas. I must say i have the same thought too but not going this ridiculous. The car weight alone is probably around 5XXkg. Tubed frame and with some ugly fibre body design. I hate to say this but he needs to paint the damn car to win in style for god sake.
WELD Racing wheels, Endyn AIR Carbon Fibre intake manifold, MOTEC 800, Simpson harness and shoes, SMSP headers, and blah blah blah. The delay in building this car is due to financial constraint and heaps of engine problems. Building an N/A car is not easy. He took 2.5 years to do it. I almost thought it was a UFO.
The car runs on rear hubs only and the power to weight ratio is mad. He did not fully full throttle the car yet but the result was impressive with a 11.682s on the quaters. Car ran twice before overheating problem on the head gasket.
I gave him 2 thumbs up before and after the race and hopefully we'll be seeing him next month on the strip with more SAFETY features and BETTER aerodyamic design. Hopefully 10.9s this time.
ps. He participated in Group B, which means 2WD Turbo Category.
Godspeed.
