[Tosh]

[R33vit]

Nah I'll go straight out there dude, sort of a pre- invation assault...

[b0neR]

Ill be spectating for sure, hope you guys can kick ass out there!

Whats the score on SAU vs. SC adrian, any word, they agree?

[benm]

I'll be there to race, prolly arriving at about 4:45pm as always.

Clutch fixed, wheel alignment, more power yup... im ready If I don't do a 13.x god help the person standing nearest to me

[Tosh]

sweet as Ben see you there

[DoughBoy]

What's the latest you can turn up to register + run? Work commitments mean I'll never be able to get there before 5:30pm.

[Tosh]

umm not too sure mate.... but if you rock up at 5:30 I would say you could still run unless it's overly crowded...

benm, can you help on this one?

[benm]

5:30pm will be fine, I usually dont get my first run until 6:30-7:00pm when I arrive at 4:45pm.

[Flaps]

Im out Got major boost problems

I got there last week at 3pm and was 13th in the line, got 7 runs. First run at 5.11 and second run at 5.39. Get there early and smile at all the late comers

[shonen]

Never been to drags before....and i got a few questions...

Is it NECESSARY to do a burnout to "warm" the tyres up ??

cause i find that i can get a bit of smoke happening and then the car just gets traction and takes off...cant do on -spots no matter what i do...and i dont wanna get a line lock solenoid.....hehe..

I also been told that the tarmac at drag strips is different to street....this true ?

so any suggestions for a first timer ??

dont wanna embarrass myself on my first run.... :confused:

[2rismo]

Not if you're using street tyres... They are designed to work at normal driving temps.

cause i find that i can get a bit of smoke happening and then the car just gets traction and takes off...

at the track, you start on the water. rev it hard in 2nd then drop the clutch. you will find that they smoke up real quick but like i said, totally unneccesary.

Yup much more sticky and your car may/will behave differently on the strip compared to the normal street roads. Just take it easy the first run (or 2) and don't try and be a hero until you get the 'feel' of it all.
