Shane you should know that Saturday night is reserved for FWD 13sec+ cars and VW's

that would have to be my only gripe about the whole jamboree event is why do all motor and front runner get the nice cool air but tough street cars get the heat of the day.

i think it must be a willowbank policy to run slick tired cars together and treaded tires together.

my initial post was to say remind them they need it as in the videos when they have been testing they didnt have a full exhaust. i was being nice and giving a friendly reminder in case they didnt know

i have my skirt on thankyou,

i am just saying to adrian post if people dont comply i will lodge a protest. i wasnt having a go at your buddy.

i reckon street rwd is going to kick ass this year. 72 entire all ready and it would appear there are 4 or 5 cars that will be fighting it out for the national record.

sweet no probs....they did know...anyway its all good and Street RWD is going to go off.....looking forward to it :dry:

carlos didnt have the full exhaust on the saturday, he offered to withdraw from the class and just do exhibition runs. i dont know who made the decision but they allowed him to use the times for qualifiying and he had to run the full exhaust on sunday. i only found this out after competition had finished on the sunday night last year.

It's hard to hear that after towing to QLD and having qualified 17th :D

The interpretation of the rules change all the time. I asked the question of Mark's mis-matched front seats and was told that it wasn't performance enhancing so nothing would be done. Mark then asked the question at a later QLD meeting of Ben's roof lining and door trims and the result saw Ben D kicked to Sport Mod.

Go figure.

The way I see it, I'll comply fully with the rules at each event and anyone who doesn't....well it'll be a race between Shane and myself to the ANDRA DD and meeting director :dry:

Geez, I would hate to upset you guys..... I will need to go and get a new horn button and make sure its working :D

Then I can beep it as im going down the straight

nope, has to run 2 function headlights.

im going to put it to ray to change that to allow cold air inductions.

also

Reece just ran 7.779 @ 291.90km/h testing at nationals

See thats what I thought, so I now ask..... Why do they have the Supra as the picture for SRWD with 1 headlight missing......

Shouldnt they have a car that complies to the rules

yes i agree, but i think the site was put up looking for a "look" so to speak.

Shane – Did you see that or hear about it? All I can say is if my window was down (and the crowd could hear me) I’d probably be facing tribunal charges for bringing the sport into disrepute :rolleyes:

Reece also just ran 7.73 at the nationals. 295 kph

Second pass today.

so the mph seems down a bit???

Ran very well, looked great.

I wonder if they running within themselves a bit. less boost???

I have video will post it later, im back off out there to watch TD and TF etc...

Also Marc Jacobson had a run, no good. Havent seen Theo?

And John with the s/c v8 R33 ran a pb of 10.3!!! well done!!!

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
