Qualified 12th. First round eliminations I cut a 'reasonable' light (.115) and punched the brakes through the traps to run a 12.12 @ 96mph. 2nd round went .003 on the tree, 1.668 for the 60' and broke out by a hundredth. (11.940 on an 11.950 dial).

Was totally worth going! Took 40 points in S/RWD for quarter-final lose. Points are now:

1/ Jeff (Blue Datto coupe JRB00M) - 140

1/ Mark Jacobsen (Friggin awesome GTR) - 140

2/ Me - 120

3/ 'BU5TER' - 100

4/ 'DRAGME' - 100

HUGE THANKS go out to the following people without whom, my competing could never have happened. I owe you guys! :thumbsup:

Lee and Ben (Filter) from Need for Speed Imports - towed the car all the way to QLD for me with almost NO notice whatsoever, crewed for me all day and helped out with every part of the day.

Mark (overev1) from Albion, QLD. Thanks for the place to crash, the help on the day and for showing me the reason I love this sport so much.

Gav - Mark's mate and rotary fiend. Thanks heaps mate.

Stuart from Bezerkly Automotive back in Wollongong for the "over-the-phone-tune" and strategy advice.

Thanks guys.

Thats great 2rismo................as my Dad would say "you done good". WELL DONE.

All the effort was worth it. :thumbsup:

Stace & Paul.

theo ran very low 10s all day with big mph 150 plus.. oops wheel spin . then broke a rear drive shaft in 2nd round racing..

Hahahaha!!!!! x lots!

If ANYONE else had broken a shaft, there would've been offers of spares and help and support from all corners. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

Jeff in the blue datto didn't qualify (17th) and had fuel supply issues. As far as I know he ripped up the ET3 non-qualifier bracket once it was sorted.

2nd place - little rotary I think?!?! Anyone?

Personally I can't wait to get to WSID and run another 1.668 60' and 118mph :thumbsup: Other 60's were: 1.762, 1.759, 1.771, 1.774.

Should have explained myself better.

This event has only been advertised for a couple months hasn't it?

Which is fine for spectators but possibly not some competitors who can take months saving and modding in preperation for an event like this.

Now im lookin forward to the Jambo up here and strongly thinkin about going to Sydney in May for the Compak attack to see who wins this sport RWD gig.

Cheers (from ex overev1>>>now gtr660hp) :P

Edited by gtr660hp

there wasnt as many spectators as at the usual jambo, but it was way better, not as crowded, u could actually sit where u wanted to and see the track, and bcoz it was a one day event like the old jambo's, there was non stop racing action, not like the 2 day event where they stop racing for like 4 hours and u got nothing to do but watch them crap around on stage to try and waste time. it was a much better event, and if it stay one day event, i can see it taking over the normal jamboree :P

    • If your tuner can't make the car idle like factory, I'd get a new tuner. These injectors are fantastic and I'd have very serious concerns about a tuners skill set if they couldn't get them to idle well. 
    • It's highly likely you will find something. Alternatively, a quick design and order online from chaina and you'll have a perfect solution
    • Idle Lambda target is off by .4 but I reckon the VE table is not correct. If my tuner has no issue using these injectors I will keep them, they are good quality after all
    • I already have an Apexi. Just wondering if it is worth putting in something new since the Apexi is likely well over 10 years old, if not 15. I know the injectors work but they already run at less than rated fuel pressure to make them work properly and idle is basically 1% duty cycle or less. Could be better
    • Nice, I would never have thought in that direction. The actual motor is a cylinder....I wonder if there are any cylindrical heat sinks with the right ID  (and if there is clearance to other components). I think adding airflow is still a thing as well....will check it all out next time it is in the air. Wish I had a hoist...
