RXP244's GPRXP Build

[jetskibum1]

Yeah.......at least the coil packs are already bolted down on the Yammy.

But that just wasn't enough of a selling point.

My BIG box of tissues says the selling point will be the bill after B2B for the freshen up!

Now here is some news speaking of B2B, the dude in Taupo with the Mazda rotary in the XP is cracking over 90 and is coming to do the B2B. Jason Wiggan is helping him with sorting the deal out and it seams they are yet to CRACK the throttle hard. Word from Jason is it is so loud it is obscene.

Speaking of tissue's......I heard it broke a chain....a chain I hear ya...rotaries don't have chains. They do if your trying to get drive to the pump. I think I would have gone with a reduction gear personally.

I hope this guy can get it to the Bridge. I really do. This is what this race is all about. Race what ya brung. Good old Kiwi no8 fence wire know how. How rad will it be if we can have 3 GPR Conversion Ski's, a Turbo FXSHO, a Rotary Doo, a couple of high 80mph RXP's and some high 70's boats even before we get out of the top ten.

Add that to the rumor that there could be 4 Turbine boats running in the Powerboat Sprints, this year is going to be pretty exciting for the spectators.

Rollo on October.

RXP244 has a turbine for his GPR

Don't tell anyone that yet! It's my only secret weapon. I may have shot my wad too early anyway.

Check this out. This is a 13B in a Seadoo GTX hull that should be running in our Bridge to Bridge later this year.

sounds awesome guys, I hope someone is taking a lot of Video and photos on the day.

I hope you can convince a lot of them to join Team NZ and come over in April/May for the Aussie B2B, would be a great event to have a true international representation at our B2B event.

Siemens 80's from fiveomotorsport. Fitted and ready for the water again.............but when?

Hopefully can get a day off during the week soon and get back out and get these new injectors dialled in. Also have stuck some iridium plugs in, so I'm hoping with the fuelling and the pump changes, I should see some positive results.

It would be nice to get out to the water with a mate, just so I'm not on my own. But my work hours make it hard to be off when normal houred people are off. I suppose at least, all my testing is done in secret

What no Roots 471-super chargers with scoups and exhaust stacks (from the land of Mad Max)?

Got to love it! The last high performance frontier, Hot Rodders still get to play. The fact that insurance claims can be denied due to mods in this country, puts a dampner on things here.

P.S. it is a little known fact that much performance development for GM and Ford comes from down under, the 2012 GT500 built on the development conducted by Pro Drive for instance.
I hear you can drive on some of the less traveled dusty roads of the outback at a 100-mph + (as long as your suspension can handle it) with out the law comming down on you. I may have to visit some time.
