The Skyline came down to run some laps after it’s new setup and tune from Jesse (who is no stranger to the drag strip, running some serious times in his RD powered “Prodeo” which has appeared on our channel very early on).

Jesse had the Skyline tamed down a bit until they could get a handle on the 60ft but not quite enough to keep the Borgwarner rear happy! They are currently building a 9 inch rear for it and correcting the 4 link geometry in hopes of running a 8.7~ 150+ mph! We look forward to seeing the car back and following as they try to achieve that goal!

The boys haven’t missed many private track hires and definitely give it 110% when this thing hits the black stuff, with the car sounding like it’s always set on kill we were bound to see some magic happen when everything fell into place – and we weren’t disappointed!

We’ve said it before, you really need to hear this car in action it’s an absolute monster… no matter where you are watching it from it sounds properly off it’s head!

Piloted by Josh Oosterwaal – this boosted beast is a 2002 Chevy Camaro pacing an LS Engine and Garrett GTX turbo. It runs an LSX Powertrain T400 with an in house built Sheet Metal 9 inch. Vitals are controlled by a Haltech ECU and the car is tuned by Con Oosterwaal and runs a 275 Radial.

The little yellow Datsun, very well known here as the “Pineapple” never fails to impress!
