Some shots from yesterday @ WSID. Enjoy [email protected] P.S. Can someone tell me who the guy was in the Silver 32 gtst? He does a good skid!

Someone saying they spoke to Anthony last night has said that the car dropped oil under its own tyres causing it to veer hard right and hit the wall. Such a shame to see one of the worlds quickest RX3's tumbling like that. I really liked that car

See ya there ben

Driver was out almost as soon as the car came to a halt and is fine.

Early money says it dropped oil but this is COMPLETELY UNCONFIRMED at this time. Adrian

Happy? What oil did you use?

Ahem - check your pm's please

Can you make custom plenums as well?

How do they tow, Lee?

BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH!!!!! See it's not only me that screws the pooch in finals. Adrian

Well, you're wrong, mate. Not trying to be nasty but the combined experience of the drag racers I know is in the hundreds of years and they ALL disagree with you. Adrian

Took the words right out of my mouth, Kenny. I have run identical, (not close, not near enough) IDENTICAL terminal speeds with 60' times different by .5 of a second. The jury is out on whether to drop tyre pressures for street tyres. Some people say drop em a bit (me included) and some say leave them as they are. What most people agree on is that performing a nice, long smokey burnout is pretty pointless. Get the water off of them, maybe a bit of smoke if you're keen and that's it. Street tyres tend to perform worse when smoked to hell. The things that have made the most difference to my times are: 1/ Practice 2/ Tyres Forget power, torque, dynos, "but my mates car does...", heresay, factory figures, forums, guestimates etc. The best way to improve your times on a street car is practice and purpose made tyres. Adrian

What are the legalities for using them?

RE401A?

Robs car is an XB isn't it?

You the man!

I was referring to the suggested definition/thoughts on what a street car was - not suggesting it was legal. Although I have seen and heard the relative merits of his car questioned and justified re: legal or not. It's only two stages of Nitrous though. It's the Leyland P76 front brake rotars that make the difference!!

Just imagine pinning that thing in 4th gear from 130-140km/h.......... /Keanu Reeves "Woah!"

Friggin' SENSATIONAL! Awesome effort!!! I want audio for that thing BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mark Hayes - 7.99 and 177mph - drives on the street monthly and is a pussycat. The Pioneer stereo pumps the whole way too! That gets my vote and has for a very long time!

BWWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

Not compared to that car! That's insane!

More was broken than the diff or it wasn't $15k
