Roy Posted October 31, 2004 Author Share Posted October 31, 2004 I think it had forgies, not sure. Once he put a set of roller rockers in it it went a lot better. He wanted some Yella Terra alloy heads but said it wasnt worth it on a 10A. Whats in your FC, i like old Holdens...still three on the tree?

Roy Posted October 31, 2004 Author Share Posted October 31, 2004 Talk is all i got mate. If i shift my auto manually and stall it up i should be able to break into the 14s...LOOL...this is fun...i havent talked this much sh1t in... in...well it must be hours surely:) But seriously, have always thought drag racing is too brutal on the car, but just curious to see how the old girl goes, plus want to try a few new things on the car. No more dribble from me... i probably have you worried:) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/54953-calder-5th-nov/page/2/#findComment-1073319 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Posted October 31, 2004 Author Share Posted October 31, 2004 Sh1t...110mph on 5psi...im sure its running the std turbo then:( In all seriousness if i can get a low 13 or high 12 ill be stoked. I doubt i will though as i dont like launching hard in the car, probably the reason the car has been as reliable as it has over the years:) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/54953-calder-5th-nov/page/2/#findComment-1073331 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotsman Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 This is why I have stayed away from drags (Except on the street) at Calder etc. I like the idea of testing your cars power to weight in a straight line, but there are just way too many tools out there. St.Albans style di*ks with an arrogant attitude towards new people. I much prefer the enjoyable track days where everyone can give it a go and we can encourage newbies to join. I'd like to go down to Calder with you Troy, but we may have to just keep to ourselves.

SABBAi Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I don't think that my 15 second quarter is gonna win any hearts..... I don't need to have brakes for this right? Cause you don't need to slow down for the corners, is this right?

Snowman Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Yeah one day I want to give this a shot (if only so I can answer everyone when they ask what my car does down the 1/4! LOL) but until I get 2nd gear fixed I'll have to pass up. But I'll try to come down for a look and to cheer you on Roy. Just don't break the car again before PI. Actually, you sure you don't want to wait til AFTER PI before you try this mate?

REDFC Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 It's ok you dont need brakes for this =D ..

Roy Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 Red...your car sounds tasty... any details. Massive brakes? Cool!..110mph? Cool! Is it a 15yr jap jobbie, modded local delivery? I like Series IV/V RX7s, almost bought one but where i lived at the time stopped me as the locals would have stolen it in a matter of weeks:( Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/54953-calder-5th-nov/page/2/#findComment-1073599 Share on other sites More sharing options...
