Here are the specs on my flying brick ...

The engine is a Normally Aspirated 4 cylinder, 2595 cc's or 158 c.i. - Injected on methanol.

The engine is in the stock location (transverse) and we use a stock Scion transmission case, 5 speed with a close ratio gear stack.

The car is a tube chassis with exact duplicate body parts from a Scion xB. Per the SS/EX rules (11.5 lbs per c.i.) the car weighs 1825 lbs. with me in it.

Here are the incrementals from our best run in Vegas ...

'60 - 1.42
'330 - 4.07
'660 - 6.32 @108.11
'1000 - 8.30
'1320 - 10.00 @ 132.27

Like Brett said above, this is very good for the Super Stock class overall. Having a manufacturer involved at out level is huge and if we can get NHRA to promote our class for what it is ... the true factory hot rods, we can grow our class and have a true mix of new and older technology!

If anyone has any other questions feel free to ask, I will be happy to share!
