Thanks for the encouragement guys.

I have some more :D toys on the way, going to see if I can squeeze the most out of what I have.

I'm also looking at something else which may be extremely beneficial, but I'll keep you guys updated as that happens.

Took the hilux out for a couple of shows on the weekend, picked up Best Commercial on saturday then slid into the Runner Up - Best 4x4 spot on sunday.

Was a good weekend, have another show on the 12th June, will let you guys know of mods before then...

The extractors are fitted, they look great and taking the first 2 cats out has given it a bit more growl.

It goes very well, this thing gets better all the time.

Attended the first Mount Isa Motor Show on saturday, was a good day and picked up Runner Up - Best 4x4 while I was there...

Looking forward to next year, I may have some surprises for them.

Went 1/8th mile racing on the weekend...

Well...kind of a powerskid comp...

Best pass of 9.60 @ 79 mph...at the end of the day, I was turning the tyres through 1st, 2nd and into 3rd...

I'm chasing down some video footage...i'll put some up if I get it

Well,

I have some more goodies on their way for the Hilux.

Going to do a little more research, might be a little breakthrough for you TRD Aurion owners.

I'll let you know

I'll be passing through Brisbane early January lol

I've only had it on the 1/8th up until now, but the MPH is the only real indicator.

I'm heading to the strip on the 24th, will see what it does then.

A 13 something ET would be nice.

Headwind I found, is a big killer on my MPH.

If all is going well i.e: good light, good 60', then i'd be expecting a high 13.

But drag racing is a weird thing.

If I hit my power target, I might need to put sandbags in the back lol

Thanks guys, I'll try a 4WD launch one day, i've got a spare transfer case in the glovebox. :D

I'm keen to crack that 100mph barrier now, I got my 13, which I am stoked about, but its oh-so-close to 100mph, I might as well have a shot at that too.

I got some pics and video laying around here somewhere, I'll put them up soon
