Annual Drag Challenge Wrap-up

[STOCKGTR]

I would like to thank all the organisers for a great day. It was fun to get out for the first time at a drag strip and see what the car can do.

Next time I will have to make sure I have a clutch!

Who was the other guy with the white 34 running slicks, no interior and no LH headlight? What times did he run?

that was "ADDICTED2R34'S"

not sure of his best time, but i know he got a low 13...something like 13.4 maybe....then he did a gearbox

[ferni]

time to update your signature bass...

maybe next time see what your car runs without the cheating part

[riggaP]

Top day as always Shame the track wasnt up to it. Still, I set a PB mph of 103.31. Shows I've got a low 13 in there somewhere...

[Bass Junky]

Here it is.

The Illusive 12 second pass!!

[Roy]

I had lots of fun.

Yippee

No more power mods on the car.

LOL...congrats. Its a good feeling cracking into the 12s

Due to overwhelming demand both here and WRX

I will organise one... but you'll need to be a member Daz

Same as this one

This wont be the "formal challenge" as thats only one a year.

But ill think of something to jazz it up with

I just wanted to send a big thank you not only to the organisers but to everyone that attended. There weren't any idiots ruining it and everyone had such a positive attitude, it made my first time down the magical 1/4 simple and enjoyable. I can see why people say it's so addictive.

I know I wasn't setting the fastest times out there but I was thrilled to just get out there and compete, hell I only won 2 races (for one of them, the WRX I was racing popped out of first gear). I was stoked just to get into the 14's on my first ever attempt at drag racing. And that was in a heavy 4 door with standard turbo and no front mount! I still think I can do better as my trap speeds were up to 99mph.

I look forward to next week when we can see exactly what power we've got.

[ADDICTED2R34s]

It was a great day. Thanks for organising it all Paul and Co. Not only was it a good from a driver view, it was just as fun from a spectator. The only gripe I have, is that Heathcote didn't let us continue with the BBQ, due to "Heath and Safety Reasons"…. The Ladies running the canteen weren't even wearing gloves, whilst handling my food!

Who was the other guy with the white 34 running slicks, no interior and no LH headlight? What times did he run?

At the end of the day, I was happy with my best time of 14.7 @ 94.6mph. Such a low terminal speed. I couldn't break over 95mph. So very happy to be in the mid 14's.

yer that was me iam getting a retrim done should have it back soon yer i got a lots of 13s cant meber what but best that i do is 13.7 at 107mph my take off is really shit diff is like a basketball bounce i riped it out tonight the boxs itS Fu*ked bad i thkinck off posting pics of it as my diff is aslo gone YESSS new ls now should all be done in a couple of months include full respray and that i let yous now i post a topic if yous wont pics of box diff ,respray ect????

Calder Park - no go.

They are not club-friendly.

If you book the side lane you will not get "more" runs than any other friday night. So max of 2-3 runs.

Heathcote pricing is realistic, and far offsets the 1.5hour drive and fuel by $40 runs and $10 spectator.

Calder wants $50 to race, $20 spectate, if you get your own "lane" as i said you will get limited runs.

You wont get 10+ runs like heathcote by any means.
