The car would be heat soaked after a drive like that. Would need to trailer it or stay the night. Would they let us set up a tent?

[sky^rkt]

About the same distance for me to Willowbank. Went once & they cancelled at last minute due to some clouds .

Was annoyed to miss out last week meeting up with those who went to WSID. So i ventured out this evening for my first ever run and the first in the " Black Hearse".

Run # 1. 14.8

Run # 2. 14.5

Run # 3. 14.3

Run # 4. 14.1

Pretty Happy!!

Nice times mate. Good improvement over the night. Car stock?

[Debarkle]

All i have done is a new 3 inch, hi flow cat and some mandrel bends. (This had to be done as original looked like a piece of swiss cheese)

I dont know what Mr Miagyi did to it in Japan as now the fun begins to find out. I have only had it 3 months so looking to see what i can do to it?

Grabs tin opener & heads to the pantry to find that can of worms stashed in the back.

BTW, 14.1 is a great time for 'just an exhaust'. There's a good chance you'll find some other goodies when you start digging.

Pretty Happy!! hey great time, welcome to the 14.1 class, what was your 60" time

[Debarkle]

Hi Rudi,

60" time was 2.051.

At least it was pleasing to loose to a Skyline.

waves goodbye to the Skyline as it runs a 11.8 @119mph. Great effort!!

Wow great 60' get that lower and your in the 13 sec. Was the skyline maroon colour?

Silver in colour. Pulse Racing sticker on rear window.

A few things i will do next time to maybe achieve that 13.

1. Not be so nervous as it was my first time at the drags.

2. Dont go out with a full tank of fuel (price rose 24 cents a litre that afternoon on way home)

3. Go when it not the hottest day since winter. 5pm - 25c. 8.30pm - 19c.

4. Adjust tyre pressure?

5. Practice luanches. ( maybe when kids aren't in car)

6. Get car tuned.

Thats why i was happy with a 14.127 @ 98.38 mph.

i dont think tyre pressure is an issue, the tracks to damn sticky anyways to get a good skid/launch

How'd you go?

Terrible night over all, Rain stopped things for a while, shit box VL dropping oil twice and some other piece of crap dying at 3/4 track.

Best I could manage was 12.6 with a 1.9 60 foot and 185 kmh trap speed. Really struggling to get it off the line with the new clutch.
