It's certainly a fast spooling setup, should be lots of fun

The billet insert could certainly be a useful repair piece for those with chassis damage there.

You could be even faster if you stopped rolling backwards!

Easy 11 second run with boost turned up ;)

Could you share any pictures on your adjustable wishbones?

Something I will be making for my project and good to get some inspiration

Thanks

I'd say not normal.

 

Are you very aggressive with gearchanges ? on/off throttle ?

 

Obviously standard mounts like that, could lead to lots of movement with the engine, which may or may not make things worse, than if it was all held a little tighter.

 

Interestingly Christian's grey drag car from Romania, one picture I seen of that area it looked like he had a steel frame of some sort as an engine mounting in that area.

eg, this is what he has done, turbo car. Not sure what else is changed on the rear, or why this is done. But it's a substantial modification.

Has one bolt sheared off, and then the other ripped off part of the engine/box it's mounted to ?

 

Or is the lower hole and bolt still functional ?
