holy fucking shit that diff is hilariously massive

[Andrew Bolt]

Supercrown is building a powerful 4M for his coupe. True story.

[Cplus]

For the green one?

[TK]

Yeah, maybe, dunno, changes plans more than undies, was gonna be 7M, but 7M turned out to be a turd, then maybe stick 7M crank etc into 4M & make big un 4M, now maybe re-ring 4M, tweak head & add cam & more carbs.
But 1st priority is get the blue whale moving under it's own copious amounts of power.

[Supercrown]

Ha ha.

Yeah - been quiet for a while as life has got in the way. Should be back on the horse pretty soon though.

Have to build a shed at my new place, but car is now stashed in parents shed which is only 4 mins from home so I'll be getting stuck into it there to get it finished.

Also piecing together a 3L 4m for the green one in the background (many many thanks to GT for parts). Have just gone this way in the interests of simplicity and time.

So yeah - i am almost there and will be starting the final push in the next little while.

Is that an Aluminium carrier on the diff? If so what brand? I was told the alloy ones wont take as much power but obviously this one will or you wouldn't have used it.

[Supercrown]

Yeah - Strange Ultra case.

Will take well more than I'll throw at it apparrently.

AIR News Release:
After some time in discussions and planning, Adelaide International Raceway is all go for Drag Racing with an ongoing racing calendar that is reinstating regular Drag Racing events at AIR, starting September 25th. Making sure we have covered all bases has been important but we are now ready to welcome drag racing back on a regular ongoing basis.

From my perspective it was never about making the venue able to run for a ‘one off’ event, but be in a position to run with a regular calendar. I am sure that we will bring confidence back to the South Australian drag racing community and all of the fans. It is important we provide on-going and regular drag racing events at AIR to support the racers, the fans and grow our sport in South Australia as well as Nationally.

Setting a calendar has been a challenge, as many events have already been scheduled around the country, but we have a variety of events scheduled for the SA drag racing community to enjoy this season from Street Meets, TnT’s, Grudge Racing to the Grand Finals in April.

Yes the December 3rd-4th Summer Nationals ANDRA Championship round is on so get ready Adelaide!

We will be releasing more information and the full calendar over the next few days, and all we ask for is the South Australian drag racing community to support us in re-establishing Drag Racing at AIR - thanks to everyone for your patience!

Yes, its a strange bolt through Alloy Ultra Case (we built the centre for him), these are for pure drag cars, iron cases are for street use.

The only way you can go stronger is to go to the billet case, which is for promod, funny car, fuel etc

[lumpy]

Is this still a thing?

[takai]

So.... one crown thread got a bump and update tonight.

Sean, any updates?

[Norbie]

I'd also love an update, but his last forum post was in 2017 so the odds aren't looking good...
