Project Orange Illusions goes faster again
Don't know how many people on here will care but I thought I would post up a copy of the press release I just sent out. Feedback is welcome and accepted.
Official Press Release from Team Vision Racing
Immediate posting as of 5/21/2006
Team Vision Racing is proud to announce that Project Orange Illusions has gone faster again. Ryne Hoover, driving TVR's daily driven 2004 Cavalier project car, dropped his best time by .270 on May 21, 2006. During the second round of eliminations in the Holley Carburetor Bracket ET Series at Route 66 Raceway he ran 12.536 seconds @ 104.43 MPH while using the brakes during a bracket race. According to the split times the run would have been an estimated 12.45 seconds at over 110 MPH without use of the brakes. This was accomplished while still on the factory clutch and flywheel, stock internals, stock head, and BF Goodrich Drag Radial tires and only 13 pounds of boost.
This represents a great start for Project Orange Illusions in 2006. Next up will be a goal of 12.35 seconds and Ryne is excited and eager to try for it his next time out, Sunday, June 4, 2006 in Gainesville, FL on the Hot Rod Power Tour. He will also be running on June 5 at the South Georgia Motorsports Park and again on June 9 or 10 in Englishtown, NJ, all on the Hot Rod Power Tour. Come out and watch him and see if he can go faster again.

Yeah the whole goal of this project was to see what would hold what power levels. Saturday we were worried about a slipping clutch because I couldn't get under a 2.08 60ft in 5 runs but Sunday proved that there was no slip after I made 3 runs with a worst 60ft of 1.98. Other than that we have no concerns with the car.
