the rex rocket


Recommended Posts

Posted

the rex rocket roared into kirky tonight to give me a hand drain and replace the coolant in my car.

afterwards it was time to get the rocket ready for crail on sunday.

first up came the c02 fire extinguisher,some mental 210 bar hose,fittings and a 16" eh bar.

what the**** are we going to do wi this i thought but he had a cunning plan.

first we fitted the bar to the front mount,then rigged the hose from the bar in through the bulkhead

to the glove box,and then onto the fire extinguisher.the results are

i think the rex rocket will put in some good times especially now that its had a methanol

hit and a good dose of c02.

Is Jim going to have someone in the jump seat on the fire extinguisher for his runs then or is it going to be a quick skoosh before the lights?

Looks awesome no matter what!

ok so im not completely sane but every little helps at crail.lol

not expecting miracles with the c02 but it will drop the intercooler temps down

a bit just before take off.certainly didnt do jc scoobs? car any harm when he was using it.

mark-yes i did get a bit of a fright on sun on the way home and im sure you had a right good

laugh watching it.(i know i would)

stephen-i wont be using it on the way down the strip, just before the line.dont want it getting sucked into

the cai.

dipsy-yes it is similar in the fact that the bar is from cryo2 but the rest was just sourced from here and there.
