SHOCK!! Blackzook has major redesign! - bear - 17-05-2007
Bruce was very dissappointed at his performance at the Quit Motorplex last night. Traction was the issue. The track wasn't too bad, but a bit cold and Bruce struggled to get enough grip to make the best of the beast. Fortunately, we sandgropers are an inventive lot so it wasn't long before we addressed the problem and SOLVED it! lack of weight was the main problem, but by piecing together a few parts what was a aerodynamic missile with huge horsepower was transformed. Bruce had laboured under the mistaken belief that a slippery shape was best when in reality, it wasn't generating enough down force. So the front had to be altered slightly, and his seating position brought more upright. A slight frame mod to extend the wheelbase, heavier rims, and a belt drive. Sounds like shit right? But Bruce was happy, check the snap shot!

I removed all of the cheescake items from the busa and replaced em with better bits then chromed the lot.

Bit of irony actually, the owner's name is Major! That truck runs consistent 12.6 sec. has a wideband on the way, pipes (two different designs) so hopefully will end up the fastest per kilogram at the Plex! probably is already!
