Just thought i'd let everyone who had a run down the strip on the weekend that we all got beated by green vyss. Claytons car. Yup, Joe rekons he smoked us all yet im still struggling to remember him even racing you guys.

He is boasting that he got the fastest time down the strip. How funny considering the Lights nor timers WERNT working. The guy in the tower box even mentioned that. Well i remember him saying it wasnt working early that day...? So pack Em' up boys, just no matter what Mod's you do or how you drive, you just cant beat the shit stream coming out of joe's mouth.

Guest Rexlr8

No, this is were your wrong. He raced Pearson in that white thing... So, he's compairing that to all of us.

And remember, the timers were working at full potential.. Says Joe... Think my ears are bleeding :D

Haha, i heard you did. You raced just as i got back to the line up so i didnt see :)

i probly wont go out to the drags dont hav enough cash but ill br happy to rip a nnnnnasty burnout saturday night im getting new tyers sat morning so if sum one wants to get a camera and record it just watch me act mad :D:bunny::);)

oh and joe a wankner camelo rang him and joe was shittin him self if u read wat it said on you tube about not to listen to those wallys clayton took his car to get checked out at melos he told him wat was wrong with it then went and fixed it and joe took all the cred saying melo was wrong and shit and clayton was lickin joe ass like no tomorrow go read it people on you tube

hey guys. since there are going to be full race bred cars out tomrorow... are we still allowed to run?

I think there is a street stock class and a super street stock or something of the sort..

Pretty sure they said if your registered you can fit into a class and have a run.

I didn't see joe until late in the day and missed his run.

I didn't see a 1 decent commodore pass at all last weekend.

15" stock tyres or 20" bling rims do not = good 1/4 times. Just wheelspin or burnouts.

If any commodore owners fit some decent tyres, then we might see some low times.

I have rotated my tyres and have been doing some 2nd gear testing :thumbsup:

Seems to make more smoke than the 1st gear efforts last week.

Im hopeing after my minor mod's to come i can land 12's. Just some heatwrap too cool things down a bit.

But i guess the strip is the way to find out. Does anyone know when there are just shit and giggle runs?

I want to see how fast i can go, but i dont want to be in some event/qualify thing against them machines.. f**k that. I would like just a run against anyone but mainly to find out my time. Not weither im faster or not.

Started off the day with BK and I doing consistent runs between 12.5 -12.8 around 105-110 mph in the heat.

Then at 6.40 pm on the last run of the day we got serious. Dropped our tyre pressures down to 18-20 psi and made the most of the cooler weather.

BK 12.17685 1/4 112.09 mph

OT 12.20889 1/4 112.41 mph

I think VSPEC is definately capable of seeing high 11's.

Looking foward to tomorrow 10 am, hope we give some of the V8 guys a good run.

Saw Fab34, thrustt, Mr.Msquito & Rexlr8 guys in the crowd. Also anyone I may have missed, Thanks for the support.

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
