The whole thing about it is it is to be road going cars only now you tell me that the RCM car and Af car is road going no way everyone else does not stand a chance of winning as long as they are running.that is why they have the TOTB so they should not run in the shootout.It is nice to see the cars but come on as if anyone would have a chance let alone pockets deep enough to build what they have.
i would go for over 600bhp but i think my car would be off the road even more than what it is now

Has Andy said what the car is fuelled with? I'd make the presumption that he's using race fuel.. but curious.
Things may have changed since then, I'm not sure.
Regardless of Andy's results, he is a top guy, and on first impressions of meeting him while getting my mates car mapped, I rate his attitude and advice.

the class and prize structure made it more than ever worth entering in a std/low spec car alongside the "big boys"!
additionally there is a future possibility of running a staged/staggered tree on the shootouts so you could run off the 13.3s class car against the likes of andy, with a staggered computerised tree giving a head start and allowing first across the line to win! can be done and is very entertaining!

Interesting seeing Andy going back to top mount cooler (mahoosive one!)
Norris' evo is a monster but its overpowered for the circuit, RCM and Zen outran it easily with there setup, Andy's car could run low 9's all day, might even sneak a 8 when its dry

I had an oil filter un-screw its self off my Astra. I'd fit a UNF threaded filter on a Metric threaded fitting 
it came off at a cross roads during a midnight staging session. No contact, just a long walk back to the workshop for another filter and some oil

But he promised it would run 8s.
(I expect it will eventually)
It would be good to see Andy get there before him, as I've never heard Andy promising anything.

I may be wrong but I would be very surprised if Andy did ANYTHING as a result of whispering in the skybus community.
Congratulations on your results Andy! You are an inspiration
