When you're sitting behind this tiny little 1300 and you see those massive steam roller tyres under the back end, you know straight away Mirko's FA3TS is no joke! Whether it's cruising the streets with the 18x12" Simmons or flying down the strip on chunky 275 radials, this car impresses!
With a Bridgeport 13BT shoehorned into the engine bay, accompanied by a Garrett GT51r and a long list of go-fast goodies, it doesn't take a scientist to figure out that this thing flies! How fast you say? How's a 9.0@146 leaving the line with the front wheels 2ft+ in the air sound!!
Recently undergoing an engine management upgrade to a full MoTec M130 system with electric DBW throttle & full data suite, Mirko is keen-as to get the car back out on the track real soon, confident he'll steer the little beasty straight into the 8s... And you know what, we're pretty confident about that too!
