It's been awhile since the last update. I moved into a new house.
At our dyno session we didn't get the horsepower numbers we expected but they were not too bad. We made 453hp at the rear wheels.

With the new custom burnt computer chip installed we didn't see much change. At the dyno session the supercharger belt was slipping quite a bit, because the belt was slipping so much we only saw 10lbs of boost. So Jim Bell (owner of JB's Power Centre) lent us a cog belt set up to try th stop the belt slipage. It did stop the belt from slipping but we still only saw about 10 - 12lbs of boost.

After not seeing the results we were expecting from the custom burnt computerchip we decided to try a couple different things to go faster. We tried putting the FMU (fuel management unit ) back on, and raised the fuel pressure. After doing some minor changes we got the car to run great. We ran 10.3 @ 133mph.

Now we are going to upgrade our computer system in the car with a programable computer that can be adjusted by a laptop computer between runs. We are also adding on to the roll bar in the car so we will be certified to run in the 9 second range.

Now that the season has come to an end the rebuilding process has begun. We freshened up our transmission, doing research on some other parts.

Should be an awsome 9 second ride at 140 - 150mph next year.

More updates comming soon.

A special thanks goes out to:
JIM BELL - for the parts he lent us to try, all the advice he has gave us, and for sponsoring the McIsaac Racing team.
TOTAL POOL & SPA - for all their support
and finally
to my family for all the support, expecially my son who just can't get enough of racing.
to my parents for making this all happen, I couldn't have done this without them.
