Yeah..on the final run held it all the way to 9500rpm in 3rd and lost both belts across the line.(3rd gear @ 9500rpm = 137 MPH)

youtube of 1st run to come (uploading now)

I got to the track right on 6pm and my mate says "I dont see pauls car" just as I hear the very distrinctive RB26 hauling ass up the track and im like "thats coz he's on track, run!!"

Thats so funny Ben....almost as funny as the other night Stace heard me talking in my sleep saying "the other dyno...nah its the same dyno, its the same dyno"

Hi Paul & Stacey, some awesome figures happening there, i cant wait to hear the final 1/4 mile times, bit of bad luck the other nite at WSID but shit 137mph 9500rpm in 3rd! Damn i love your car, i had my car in for some work at Croydon a couple of months ago & while i was waiting for marcus & the boys to open the gates, they moved all the cars out & then they started up your car, i almost wet myself & it was only idling, your car sounds wicked!! Absolutely love it!! I was sitting there thinkin Fark i wonder if someone from SAU owns that ANIMAL, well now i know its you well done! :);):(

Thanks Billy, Cars like this don't just happen (unless you have unlimited cash), it has been constant trial and error development over 6 years. The car is almost at the stage where we want it...once the 9's are out of the way its time for monster brakes and a return to the circuit. Stacey is still keen to get out of the 11's and into the 10's after she has the baby (it was due yesterday). Very happy with how the car performed with the limited testing we had on wednesday night.

Good luck with that. Car sounds like it's a beast and a half. Been following this thread for awhile now. Am i the only one who thinks the plates read "To Ogle"?? :mellow:

At Autosalon one year the announcer called the car "to ogle" when Stacey was accepting a trophy. He is the only other person to suggest "to olge"

Twoogle inhaled its first breath from the new T51R SPL tonight and powered by the new Vi-PEC ecu...yes it runs...tuning tomorrow and on the road next week.

big thanks to Guilt-Toy and Mark Jacobsen from Godzilla motorsport.

dug up an old thread as it was a bit of a waste starting another.

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
