Tracy and I went and grabbed a 2015 coyote on Friday. Skrat is officially getting swapped and coming back from the dead. We’ll see what happens but hoping to have it going by the end of the year. It will be NA for now. Going to use a black magic clutch a faceplated tko600 and Holley dominator for engine management.

lets make this happen! were registered with the cobra

Hi Powercruisers
I have been in discussions with Kristi at the BIR for a while now, working to still make Powercruise work however a few things need to fall into place for me

You would have noticed we haven’t been actively promoting Powercruise because we weren’t sure what was going to happen, we have been very closely monitoring the situation and working hard to find ways to still have an event - however the virus causes a lot of uncertainty and unexpected changes. We have only received 270 registrations and unfortunately because I had to get special permission to leave Australia to go to America to run my business, which has been a timely process which was just approved yesterday. Australian airlines are not operating internationally so we have to get on an American airline that comes to Australia and is returning virtually empty therefore a plane seat cost $12,000 to get to LA return and I need to bring at least two people myself and one other so my costs are exorbitant now - so we simply can't bring the whole Aussie crew you are used to.

Kristi at BIR has offered more assistance than I thought was possible and we are looking at doing a deal whereby she supplies some critical stuff I need but the bottom line is 2 things need to happen

We need to receive minimum 800 total pre-registered entrants as we will not be able to take any new entrants on the day as we will not have the staff to manage that, so all entrants will need to be pre-registered. BIR also has a rule where they’re not allowed to have spectators so therefore pre-registered entrants need to buy crew passes for their friends who will need to be camped with them in the group

I need this to happen and re need to reach 800 before Sunday 19th July. If we reach 800 with everyone’s support then I can book a flight and leave Australia on the 25th July which gives me only 1 week to prep but I’ve been doing this for 18 years now so I’m pretty good at it and with the awesome support from Kristi and the team at BIR we can all hopefully look forward to NOT MISSING OUT ON POWERCRUISE

Please read between the lines. You cannot buy entrant tickets at the gate on the day. You also cannot buy spectator tickets at the gate on the day. You need to buy “Support Crew” tickets from the Powercruise website from anywhere accept at the gate on the day GOT IT

If everyone gets onto this and spreads it around this will be huge but y’all need to move quick. If we don’t get 800 total registrations in time we will simply push the refund button and refund everyone and say we tried our best.

Photo dump for Tracy’s Zo6, it’s all back together. Couple little things to finish up, going to get the injectors cleaned and install a catch can and replace the leaking oil pressure sensor and then it’s ready to go.

As 2018 is wrapping up figured I do a recap. we didn’t do any racing this year hence the lack of post. But we got a good friend of mines corvette going in the right direction and is currently on the hoist getting transmission and differential up grades via rpm transmission. unfortunately skrat got ripped apart a kinda parted out but will
Make a come back in 2020 hopefully. We added a 2004 cobra to the team. It’s a really well rounded street car at the moment and Last but not least a 1995 f350 dually with a power stroke and a man pedal so we’ll be ready to go anywhere now.
