Saunsw Drag Day Wrap Up Thread

[d00dz]

hahaha 406.74MPH!

Too bad the lady wrote incorrect speed on it. But I did get one where it says 192.38MPH.

Anyways thanks to all involved for organising this. Too bad it was wayyyy tooo hot! >.<

192MPH!! on the left:

[GoldZilla]

I'm stoked, I got a 14.507 @ 91.6mph on low boost (9psi) in the morning with a fair bit of knock due to the heat (it was already close to 30degC at around 10.15am). This was my second run, and I've never dragged before.

In the arvo with the cooler weather, I did a few more runs in low boost to check for knock, then went for it in high (12psi) and got my best run of a 13.817 @ 95.23mph on my second last run.

Not bad for an RB25DET Stagea with minimal mods (full exhaust, return-feed FMIC, PowerFC, EBC and fuel pump) running an otherwise standard engine and turbo. I wish I'd remembered to check the weight during scruitineering, but it would quite easily top 1700kgs.

Massive thanks to all the SAU-NSW Exec crew (Eric, Dave, Duncan, Liz, Shell, Steve-O, etc.) and our volunteer support network (BenM, Sean, Mitch, etc.) for putting this together.

Also thanks to our very own Tats for the commentary throughout the day, he sounded much more professional than I did over the PA system

Thanks to all for a great day, well run.

Only had eleven runs due to the heat, car run like a swiss watch all day, worst run was my first with a 12.7, best was a 11.3.

took plenty of pics and vid, will post up later.

Was a great day me and my wife were there for the nissansilvia.com drifting,

But we spent half our time watching the drags, one of the best days out we've had in a while

BIG Thanks to Dave and the SAU team for hosting such a great day cant wait till the next 1(if i can come again)

Ran 11.4 on the fist run on low boost then 11.7 on the 2nd but the block split half track witch ended my day

Highlight off the day was watching the silver Skyline with the Microtech sticker on the side off it running a 12 at 130mph this thing was sideways from the start to the finish line he must have big balls to drive something like that

Thanks again Todd (Black Dato 1600)

I thought I saw you out there, but wasn't sure if it was. You were both wearing black?

[petern]

Thanks to SAU:NSW for organising a great event, shame the car called it quits just before lunch (silver 1600).

Had 4 and a half runs, best was the very first one of 11.6 @ 123mph 1.8 60ft

Best mph was 125

Awesome to be able for have 4 runs within an hour, compared to 1 run per hour on Wednesday nights.
