What's the best time to get there to enter?

Me and a couple of mates are going to have a run tomorrow night

gates open at 5 for competitors, sometimes 4.50pm thel open, then u got through scrutineering and then u will probly wait around for half an hour or so coz racing starts at 6pm

yep - rev limit clutch dump works well :cool:

nah - something around 4000rpm works from what ive read, then bleed the clutch out or pop it out if you got a hd clutch

otherwise just work around that value - try 4000rpm one time, then 4500 rpm then 3500 rpm, then just feel around them till you find something that works for you

lately ive seen a few gtrs down at the strip runnin like 14s alot off ppl are revvin to like 3000 3500 droppin the clutch and its just bogging off the line, depends really if u gotta heavy duty clutch or not, if not i wouldnt try launching too hard, if u do i think ya should git it 4000rpm+ and practise gettin off the line without bogging it

4000rpm should be alright, i notice some people rev it o 4000rpm and straight out drop the clutch and it bogs, if u go a bit slower on the clutch to keep the revs up and give it plenty of throttle it should launch ok, i have got a 2.0sec 60ft last week in my gtst

    • Nah, turn the boost up, break the gearbox, and enjoy leaving it parked for a few years while you save for a better box...
    • I see those two Stageas have the "punched 40mm hole" deregistered Japanese number plates 👍 Nice kouki group shot with the different colours too. 
    • Ended up just being a loose exhaust bolt luckily.
    • Yeah I made that post way too early, sorry I must have assumed it was bad because it's a 20+ year old thrashed shitbox lol. It was just a loose exhaust bolt. 
    • Like others have said, drop the power to give your drivetrain a % of reliability until you can up the drivetrain reliability  It isn't rocket science, build power to the weakest link with a % of safety Whilst upping the the reliability of the drive train is costly, there's no point in having the engine make big power if it keeps eating the drivetrain....ask me how I know, I had the tow truck on speed dial for a few years, and I spent huge amounts of money fixing issues and breakages that really would have been cheaper in the long run if I did it right the first time Me, I like a nice sized fudge factor, that keeps me off the tow truck
