I guess a bigger radiator will help then, I think there is a R33 gtst radiator on the car atm.

My car is not an auto. My best time is 14.8 on Sat I was trying for a consistant 15.1.

What do you think about a 2nd gear start I've thought about it . might give it a try this Sat.

I could have cut my throat when I broke out!!!!! I was up against a Wrexxy who dialed in 14.6 and I thought I had a good chance of beating him

[BOOSTMEISTER]

Sorry Jay....I thought it was....yeh launching in second may be an idea, will give it a go next time I am at the drags

[BOOSTMEISTER]

Please keep to the topic for those who are familiar with the thread yuo know what has been deleted and for a good reason thanks.

182km/h is AWESOME!! You should have enough juice to run an 11 sec pass, and 1.9 60' is excellent, did you run slicks? What were your 660' times and mph?

Hey Squizz, can you let us know about Benaraby. A few of us were talking about going up there, if there's an import meet I would be keen to run the Zed. Is it full 1/4 mile?

[BOOSTMEISTER]

TTZ sorry haven't got my time slip (as mentioned it was stolen with some of my other gear only have the ones from earlier in the day but my friend has his and I ran against him will see if he still has it....we weren't too impressed with the times so he probably disposed of it . I was running street tyres but got a awesome launch sorted.

[giz01]

i saw a front wheel drive ke 1.8turbo laser do a 13.15@111mph in that 29DEG/1980RA with a 60ft time of 2.3

so some people were still doing alright!

[NismoGirl]

Nismo_Boy.. .were you there?

I didn't see the R13. Not that I knew what I was looking for. I also didn't see cam till he ran his first run at night. I think we missed a lot of things ... But we seemed to be in the stands most of the day. Can you post some pics Nismo_Boy?

[NIZ30]

hehehe......benaraby.

Imagine Willowbank...

Now remove the buildings and infrastructure. Place a drag strip (1/4 mile) in some bush not far from Gladstone, Qld.

Basicly a piece of bitumen, in the bush with timing equipment. What more do you need?

It is fairly well supported by the Gladstone, Rockhampton & Bundaberg people though. Is fairly surprising the numbers they get, and the Import meet will be well supported by the Gladstone guys, and Squizz and the Kaos crew.

Check out www.benarabyraceway.com

but don't expect too much.

pity its so far away I wouldn't mind going those small tracks are great fun and the meeting should be good

Took the words right out of my mouth...

[Guest sir calais]

Heres some more info on benaraby raceway http://www.benarabyraceway.com/

..... you've got to admit Benaraby has improved from how it was this time two years ago. Least now theres grass on the mound - actually least now theres a mound. All they need now is a decent road to get in there.

[NIZ30]

:bahaha:

...and don't go too fast on the return road cause you'll stir up dust, and it will go on to the track.

[NismoGirl]

This is sounding better and better with every comment!

[Guest sir calais]

yeah and when your racing you;ve got to be careful you don't hit the cows from the near by paddock too, they often walk out onto the track.... :lol: :lol: :lol:

[BOOSTMEISTER]

Dam I may have to put the TEIN's back in incase I need to turn hard at high speed.....OH crap :eek: I sould them, what am I going to do????? Does sound interesting though......bit like one of those witches-hat slaylem style of events I spose

[NIZ30]

ok ok ok...lets just say it is still a very good regional track. At least it is full 1/4 mile, better than some. besides the people in Ipswich, how many of us can say they have a decent, legal place to have fun on?

Hey Boosmeister, you thinking of going up for it? Benaraby drags that is.

[51jay]

Well!! Benaraby definately sounds like THE place to be seen at

How about it Cam??............... Should we??

[BOOSTMEISTER]

I will be in Airlie Beach from 18th Oct for a week so if it is around that time I may take a side trip....only problem is it is a long way from home and I'd hate to wreck my holiday if I broke something......especially when the car may be getting sold:eek:
