rotormaster and pac performance were awesome to watch. Massively quick cars. Pacs mx6 on its first pass in the day did a launch and then shut off but managed a 1.0 60 foot which as u people would know is really chomping. massive potential left in that car.

it was an awsome weekend, my mate Nick ran a new PB on both days ending up with a best of 12.04 @ 110MPH in his VR4 powered GSR. He made it too the 3rd round but was beaten by the gold rigoli wrx which ran a mid 9 i think.

GTR 700 was a big dissapointment, i understand how hard it is to get a car like that sorted but i was so keen to see it do at least 1 full noise pass. It did a wicked 1/2 track run for his ANDRA licence on sat which reminded me of the HKS R33 GTR luanching at drag combat. He then came back for a demo run but couldn't get it into gear for the burnout and then that was it! Didn't even see it in the pits today :`(

The croyden GTR from NZ did well on sat with a couple of full noise runs. That thing is nuts off the line with the craziest limiter launch's i've ever seen! He lined up today and did a mid 8 sec pass which was great but then that was it! He only ran once on race day!

So after all that dissapointment thank god for kier wilson in his JMS R32 skyline! This 3L NOS powered MONSTER of a skyline was the high-light of the weekend for me, almost everytime he came out he ran a 9 sec pass with amazing consistancy and reliability. All on STREET TYRES!!!!

Theo ran a 10 in his R32 GTR and also entertained the people with big burnouts including one which went to 3/4 track!!!

The www.101motorcafe.com R33 GTR won the modified street class with consistant low 11 sec passes and great promotional girls!

and then there were the rotors, spluttering and brapping there way into stage and doing some very impresive wheel stands. Apart from "smoking" Joe Signorelli's amazingly consistant 7 sec runs the rest of the rotors didn't really go all that quick compared to past jambo's. Noticely absent were some of the quicker PAC Performance cars, these guys usally rock up with heaps of 8 sec cars and even a few 7 sec ones.

Angus from fullboost.com.au had his RX7 going with an amazing 580rwhp this car was a weapon and Angus was aiming for 9's. After a rocky start on sat, which resulted in a shattered gearbox, he burnt some mid night oil and replaced the box but unfortunetly broke the radiator when it came down off the jack. Last min repairs were done and he ended up running a wheel standing 9.99!!

NZ's fastest fwd was a bit of a fizzer, the quickest i saw it run was a high 10 i think. The integra lost its title to the My105 Online front wheel drive CRX which ran a low 9.

Dom Rigoli's new red wrx wagon set the new 4 cylinder 4WD record with a very quick 9.1 sec pass

The freestlye motocross riders finished off the day with a jump made out of 2 trailers that were towed onto the track. Unfortunetly the 1st guy to jump it overshot the landing by about 2m and broke both his ankles! The other 2 guys carried on with the show and pulled some sweet tricks including huge no hander landers!

All in all it was a good weekend of racing and i can't wait till next year! With a bit of luck i'll be racing my R32 with some RB25DET power and hopfully some 12sec passes ;D

The sun was bad. We had drunk 4 litres of water in 2 hours!!

I thought "yeah.. 4 bottles will be fine" .... PFFT.

I dont know why they don't hold the event in winter. It would make heaps more sense!!

Maybe they need women to organise it. Someone with brains anyway :)

Ants

I heard the comentators mention it.

heh, i didn't realise i'd writen so much untill i posted it :)

I should probably have mentioned Archie's cosmo/berreta rotor but it never really made a clean pass. He was having heaps of transmission issues but ran a few 8sec passes in the end.

Tony Khoury's triple turbo triple rotor ford probe also had alot of clutch dramas but ran a couple of 8sec passes on sunday with some nice burnouts.

The Pac performance mx6 was running for the 1st time so i wasn't really expecting much, it did mostly shake down passes but pulled a few full noise low 8sec passes. I think he even recorded a flat 1sec 60' time which is just amazing! This car is definatly going to run a 6, they built it in acordence with NHRA rules so i expect its going to go over to the state for a tour.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
