Just wondering how the dyno's cope with big launches and changing gears?

[Drag Tag]

Hi guys,

Russell here from Drag Tag,

I will try and answer your questions as best I can.

The one thing you have to do is to come down and have a look for yourself, people can talk as much as they like about it but until you see it you won't fully understand.

The cars are held down with specially made brackets that are fitted to the cars rear suspension. These are road legal and engineered. The cars are then held in place on the Dyno via these brackets and a hold down mechanism. The cars don't move.

We also measure the windscreen angle and the weight of the car and all this information is taken into consideration by the computer whilst you are racing. The heavier the car the more the Dyno retards and so on.

Good story on Fullboost.com.au

Hey Russell, the question has been asked, "what about Brake and Engine cooling?"( also Auto Trans )

For the Drag I would think it would not be an issue, but the Circuit certainly would be as well as the drift also!

How you are going to do the Drift I cant concieve, but you have come this far so I guess you will get it happening.

im sorry its way too expensive

im sorry its way too expensive

Hi guys we have restructed the pricing as memberships won't apply to all that want to come racing.

As Russell has said you really have to come down and check it out in person as l could sit here all day a type words but still you won't have an understanding of the centre.

The new price list.

Car setup ie: Brackets,photo of car,weighed and all car info entered in the Drag Tag system. $195.

Driver setup: Car and driver id cards and training on how to race your car on our system. $60

This is all a one of payment as the car and driver are ready to RACE.

With this setup racing will cost $50 each racing event.

Admission will cost $20.

lf you take out a membership your racing will be discounted at a rate and also has it's benifits.

Check out the discounts at this website http://site.dragtag.com.au/webpage.php?id=18

Also the benifits of racing at Drag Tag is that you are racing for prizes and maybe some cash, you dont get this when racing at a track so this is something else to think about.

roughly how many runs will you get in a night? the website mentions a queing system etc. but are we guranteed a certain number of runs?

just trying to compare $55 drag night at calder to this.

Also is circuit racing available yet? most of the website seems to be geared toward drag racing only.

Mate depends on how many come out to race on average you will get 8 to 10 passes all depends on the race event aswell.

As for the curcuit racing we are still developing the steering software as the lasers we use for drag tag only give us limited steering for circuit tag, we are looking to get some photo cell technology in the future which will give us full steering.

Hi guys if some are still thinking this is not like the track some of you mayknow of a torqois 57 chev coupe that runs 9.70 at Calder has ran tonight at drag tag a time of 10.17 and this car is in street trim ie: full exhuast so hope this helps with your questions.
