So did anyone end up racing?? If so post some times.

[jun 2.7]

Anyone going down tomorrow night?

[stR33ter]

i went last night but took the GSXR1000, did a 10.7 @ 219.7kph

there were a couple of skylines there.

bloody cars ruined the night dropping oil.

Hey guys

I raced on the 20th but, unfortunately nobody else showed up.

13.9sec @ 179km/hr, ate a few v8's so I was happy haha

If anyone is interested in planning another night, let me know and maybe we could organise to meet up.

I don't think I'll try organise another skyline drag night atleast for a while due to the lack of interest and responses I received.

But in saying that, if there's anyone genuinely interested in meeting up some time, feel free to pm me or comment on this forum and we'll organise something.

Cheers

Bugger that nobody else showed.... maybe if it wasn't held every week there might be a bit more interest. It's only when you lose your drag strip (i.e. Adelaide over 5 years ago) that you really miss it!! I'd be keen to put my 34 down the strip in a month or so, just need to do a few little things to it.

Edit: What V8's did you beat btw? Would be interested to know how the new R8 clubby's go? Did you race new or old?

Yeah you're probably right.

Didn't get to face any VE's or anything. Beat a few VS-VZ SS commy's. I don't think they were too seriously modded but had the basics - intake, exhaust and all that so I assume they would be pushin something like high 200 or low 300hp atw.

The highlight for me was beating my mates Ford BF Boss 260kw automatic with my manual 34GT-T

Couple of black VE HSV GTS's doin 11's - they were pretty awesome. Not sure about both of them, but I know one of them was supercharged and pretty bloody serious hp (not sure exactly how much).

Someone in the sauwa club was there the first time I went down. He had a midnight purple (I think) 33 GT-R doin low 12 sec runs that I saw. Sounded f**king awesome, had 4 wheels spinning with the launches and looked mint.

If you let me know in advance when you're keen to go down, I'll head down again and meet you if you want. I work 8 on 6 off FIFO for a mine site up North so I'm only available every second Wednesday night.

I'm thinking of going down on the 18th,

i'm guessing with a factory 0 - 100 of 11.3 I'm expecting something like 18-20 sec pass?

[tricstar]

yeah I'm keen to get down there again before they shut up shop for winter, 18th lets get some numbers

[tricstar]

last drags til summer, if you want to run some times, better get down there tonight, I'm frantically trying to organise a Super Street Licence at the last minute

also tomorrow night the last Nolimits night at Barbs for the season

[Socrates]

i went down, ended up getting 17.8 with missfiring at 123.4km/h terminal speed.

not bad for my car i've been told.

[tricstar]

:rant:yeah I finally got license sorted out and went down too, only to get there and be told it was FULL

oh well have to wait a few months to have a crack at a 10...

Anyway, up to Barbagallos tonight for the Nolimits track night
