    Mike you have a good looking project in the works there.

    Is there a drag strip in Bulgaria or any place to race?

    My target is 300 - 320 HP @ crank, I believe about 280 BHP. I need for everyday driving in the city and on the highway.

    When I finish this project I will open another one for drag. I have one engine "Chochone" - v8, 5.000 l from Mercedes SL 500E. I believe it will kick 1000 HP @ crank at about 25 psi boost. Now I am looking for the proper cassis. But this project will start maybe late autumn.

    Yes, we opened the 2007 season last weekend. Tomorrow there will be the first official drag race in Sofia, Bulgaria.

    Bulgaria is a small country and there are not too many enthusiasts that are able to start a drag project.

    However there are two powerful cars in Bulgaria. The first one is Ford Sierra with modified engine that shows 10.4 sec @ 1/4 mile. The other one is Nissan Skyline with 10.1 sec @ 1/4 mile.

    Building more powerful car costs too much. Drags are not very popular yet in Bulgaria, that's why there is only one drag strip in Sofia where I am going to be tomorrow.

    There are two race tracks in Bulgaria - one @ Plovdiv and one @ Sofia.

    WELCOME!



    Looks like you have a very well planned project going, good luck with it. You should have a pretty nice street sleeper on your hands when its finished.
