Maurice Brennan Continues Improvement
Nov 19
Perth based customer Maurice Brennan continues to improve in his ARC designed AA/AP Commodore. At the recent 37th Annual Goldenstates Maurice's car showed great promise with a run that was unfortunately dissallowed due to crossing the centreline near the finish line. The incrementals showed that the car was on a low 6.30, high 6.20 pass with a 1.03 short time, 4.20 @ 182.62mph 660' time and 5.397 sec 1000' time. The carbon fibre body and assistance from new crew chief, school student James Rowland is certainly starting to pay off. The car has also had a bigger beefier anti roll bar installed which has cured the launch characteristics, and a new 1/4" thick moly motor plate has proven very beneficial over the alloy plate which was showing signs of distress.

Is This The Coolest Rodeo Ever!
Oct 31
ARC is finally nearing completion of the Extra Cab Rodeo that has graced our workshop for a very long time. No longer will drop ins be able to say 'is that thing still here'. It has been a long haul, but through trials and tribulations, it should hit the ground next week. (Karen will be pleased as her roadster is the next car on the jig). The car will still require a funny car cage, pedals, steering and minor tin at the firewall. The Rodeo is for sale due the owners ill health.

Willies Makes Successful Return.
Oct 23
After a year long rebuild, Stephen willies recently made a successful return to racing. Loosing his complete engine and damaging the beautiful Torino, put a deep hole in Stephens budget, but with help from family and friends he has returned bigger and better. The new engine combo displaces less cubes, but with a four bolt main block, new crank rods and pistons, roller cam and better cylinder heads, the engine gained an extra 100hp. With a change of rear end ratio, the 6800 rpm limit is still achieved, the extra power pushing the car to new bests of 8.86 secs @ 152.00 mph during recent testing. Converter and trans modifications showed promise at last weekends bracket meet, but less than ideal conditions held performance back from that expected.
