So say i race you, let you go first and i wait and get myself comfortable and 5-10seconds after you leave i take off and run my time you get your time blahblah and i still get my 12.5 it doesn't affect it.

Man, if you're still there after 10 seconds I'm gonna leave the grandstand and push you down the track!

last night update...

it was farking freezing....after a massive burnout i reeled off a 15.6 cause i had absolutely no traction in 1st, 2nd, and the first time no traction in 3rd...scared the shit out of me....

2nd run pulled off a tidy 13.149 just beating my old pb, sub 2 60ft at 104mph

3rd decided to try a short shift 3rd so it came on boost in 4th before i crossed the line....ran a 13.244 but at 107.5mph, got an extra 3.5mph but didnt help my time....

4th was a blinder through 1st & 2nd....left parts of third on the track as i crunched hardcore.....

5th was best of the night....ray told me what 2rismo told him regarding 2 stage launch technique.....tried it and did my best 60ft of 1.911. Almost 12's

60ft 1.911

E/T 13.081

MPH 104.25

Disappointing night for me.. hence why i didn't call/sms you 2rismo :ninja:

Track was cold and slippery i felt like a hovercraft when i was in 3rd/4th gear going down the track, i REALLY need to learn to do burnouts.. Benm warned me to smoke em up i ATTEMPTED too but as soon as i tried the car went sideways and my tyres were still cold :ninja: <so hard to make the car stay still for burnouts - Moanie you gotta give me some BURNOUT lessons>

Still managed a 12.913@114mph with a crappy 2.05x 60ft though

VESPA: i Saw your car in the car park when i arrived and went into my staging lane, then you disappeared what happened did you something give way?

Congrads on the New Pb Brendan i reckon a few more runs with 2rismo's launch technique<which i haven't perfected> and your in the 12's mate

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
