FireForce 5 Jet Dragster has just completed it’s 6th consecutive 300mph+ runs last Sunday. JapShow held at Santa Pod Raceway on 10th June saw all manner of Japanese vehicle enthusiasts gather at Pod and FireForce 5 launched another sterling run clocking up a 308.33mph in 5.16 seconds.
Whilst FireForce 5 was at the Classic Ford Show just one week prior, a timing system failure meant that there was no recorded speed or time – much to our disappointment.
So, let’s re-cap;
Fast Show – Sun 29th April 2018
5.063 seconds @ 308.34mph (ET PB to date)
FIA Main Event – 26th – 28th May 2018
5.201@308.33mph
5.328@302.16mph
5.192@310.41mph (PB Speed to date and the quickest & fastest jet outside North America)
5.224@308.34mph
JapShow – Sun 10th June 2018
5.164@308.33mph
As with everything, you can only perform at these speeds for so long before it takes it’s toll and FireForce 5 now needs a little maintenance in preparation for the forthcoming event.
