It was done at a Test n Tune day, so isn't counted for the "Official" record.

The car also had the front chassis rails replaced with a tube frame setup, which moves it into a different category under ANDRA rules, but is still okay under NZDRAG rules (if I understood Mario's post correctly)

So what I wanna know is... why doesn't Mario come on here and tell us? I mean, he's an Aussie right?

Or does that NZ forum have more credibility than SAU? F*ck that.

I'm not saying he should come on here and start a thread about a competitors car!

We got a thread about this "Heat Treatments 8.40" bizness just like SDU, except Mario doesn't comment here on the local forum... thats what I mean.

Thought this would be a good place to make an update - Heat Treatments ran at Masterton Motorplex in NZ this weekend and set his PB, and then reset it again:

First run was an 8.33, the second run was an 8.28 @ 167mph. Congrats Reece and the Heat Treatments team :cheers:

      Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!

      Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure

      A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins

      Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though

      I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
