Looks like the sprintex is another great Aussie export, along with Miranda Kerr

I will have to double check but I think that is a bit quicker than even his best time on NOS

That's around...250whp? Did they dyno? What's it putting down and what supporting mods? Looks very promising.

I'm pretty sure they have dipped into the 11's before, but I may be wrong.

He did this off the bottle? Not to shabby

I double checked and you are correct. Apparently they just broke the 2 year old unofficial street tire record as well. So far so good .

I know Mike from Mynes drives their Spintex car around a lot. It's been the only car I ever see him in lately,

Anyone have any more facts about the Mynes car? I'm assuming it's tuned and not just all bolted on. Numbers? Hard data? Are they active on this board at all? There seems to be a lot of hope for this product but those "successful" with it are not claiming success with it in public.

From what they told me the car has the S/C bolted on with a tune and some head work, like P/P and cam. That's it as far as I know. Pretty simple stuff.

I've been meaning to take a ride, but every time they stop by the shop I'm busy and I really only have time to conduct our business.

I think they keep their online activity to minimum and are really only active on their website.

No such thing as a stage 2 sprintex kit just smaller pulleys that you can purchase seperately from sprintex

Mynes just used the stage 1 and 2 to present the data they got when testing
1. a stock car with the sprintex kit
2. and a modified car with a Thumper head, cam, headers etc with the sprintex kit using a smaller pulley...
