I just have to be picky... 850hp and 1096Nm

And I just have to add som Info about Tor Øyvind Skinne. I have enormous repect for that man and what he is capable of with his handicap:

Since this is an S2 Forum: Skinne has ported the heads and in both Jonus Green 90Q with 1065hp and Jonus S2 with 1285hp.

Skinne bros racing is still the only non-american dragracing team that have managed to qualify in Pro Stock dragracing in World Finals in USA
With a microscopic budget and self built engines compared to the big american teams!

That's pretty mental and undrivable. Builder just goes to show what determination and skill can achieve

He he But realy? I need to tell him, he usually keep good track of this and is often "over there" during the World Finals.

It is pretty mental yes

A nice touch is that it is street legal (with turbo engine in the papers) and he and a friend takes the kids for a sunday drive from time to time

The realy mental thing is that they had turned down the boost pressure with 0,7bars compared to the dyno pull in order to adjust chassi and "launch controll"

The 9,61 run was the second of the day and a "Chassie-breakout" so no more runs that weekend. But that is getting fixed this week and they are hopefully up for some realy low 9s next weekend at the same racetrack
