Mike you have a good looking project in the works there.
Is there a drag strip in Bulgaria or any place to race?

Hello!
Mike nice ride..... looks like you got your work cut out for you.. what kind of power are you looking to get ???
so what other cars do you and your friends play with?
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.
we just got done building a RB25DT (skyline engine) made 539hp @20 psi. Its in a 240sx. ran 13.99@139.04 (needs good tires). How was the drag strip? We whent last night.... Jeff (burntire) went 10.90@127.??mph and there was a 4 door dodge diesel that went 12.82@109.??mph. A Honda civic hatchback with a big turbo went 10.99@12?.??mph
wow, very cool stuff. look forward to seein some pics from the drag strip! looks like some fun. keep us updated on your project!!!
btw- welcome aboard!
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.
Hi again,
Here are some pics from the drag strip last Sunday. There are some gorgeous cars, I hope you will like them.
