How good was the drag comp!!! The Skylines beat everything until the last race where the torana had roughly a 3/4 car langth head start at the roll start - the gtr was catching the torana by quite a bit by the finish line

Hehe, yeah, was in the pits, they were trying to convince the officials to let them do a rerun, but by the time they finished the track was already cleaned up and ready for the next event :O that skyline was a machine :P

Yeah damn good job Buster..

and man.. those autostyle machines were killin it..

if they had done standing starts I think the result would have been a little different..

great day.. and DAMN i'm sunburnt..

drift was alright.. bit boring, goto say, for $35 the day is really unorganised..

Yeah the GTR's would've been good from a standing start

Was there a reason that didnt happen? e.g. the officials didnt want nissans winning?

The marshals were too slow. like the green alien that fell out on the track

1. why was it allowed in the car unsecured? from the anouncers comments it wasnt the first one to fall out onto the track

2. Why did it take the announcer asking for a guy to clean it up AFTER THE 2 GTR'S HAD RAN PAST IT to get it picked up?

Also the waiting time was nothing short of ridiculous

Yeah.. ^^ that was crap.. they go on about track safety.. yet when something falls on it.. they just leave it there..

Mate and I were standing going.. ok.. so.. someone will go get it now.. before.. oooohh.. noo.. too late.. they'll just run the GT-R's anyways..

edit: me just grumbling.. probably due to the sunburn..

JEV-666 did alright too in the R33 GT-R.. how'd you go with traction out there buster??

guys its called street racing, which at the end of the day is a way around the agreement between eastern creek and wsid that eastern creek wouldn't have drag racing at there complex

it has nothing to do with nissans

whens the next kind of event like that.. wouldn't mind going..

also - who was the photographer you were talking with out there.. wondering if he's got a website?.. wouldn't mind seeing some of the photos..

Just found your photos Oricle.. llooking good..

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
