003: 1400whp World Record Setter | The 'Gringotegra' [PODCAST]

Andre & Tim talk with Myles Kerr from English Racing a performance workshop developing high performance and world record breaking custom builds who's work has previously featured on our YouTube channel.

We will dive into what Myles' does is at English Racing to help make sure customers are realistic of the demands of a high performance build for the street and or track, and how he transitioned from a customer service role to building his own 1400WHP Honda Integra which in FWD form managed to set a world record in 1/2 mile racing, and much more.

Myles' 'Gringotegra' is far from any normal Integra, with 1400WHP, a 4WD conversion and many other modifications. We talk reliability issues such a build presents and how he manages to overcome them in order to daily drive this insane Integra.

Also touched on is tuning philosophies around half mile drag racing and how they manage torque management on a 2WD vs 4WD cars. Another point discussed is how much harder on the engine is a half mile drag race compared to a quarter mile drag race.
