April 2nd 2005 Queensland round of Drag combat

Who is keen to attended?

Race or spectate

Would be good to have a strong Queensland SAU showing.

Only 3 months away

Should have my car ready by then to race

Far out. Next years going to quick already! :P

I was hoping to have a few cars to put on display at events like this in 2005. Not to compete in the best ricer awards, but to get our name out there that SAu exist as a club. If anyone is interested, pm me and I'll get in contact with the guys who run drag combat (is it cabin?) and get more information.

I will prob be in UK but have asked mick51 to enter the white car to keep up our Drag Combat record (mick drove the first, we entered the 2nd but had to retire) Hopefully using BFG drag radials...hint hint Mick!!

I'll put the car on display if you need some numbers, never done it before :thumbsup:

But ill have a go at 'racing' too, depending alot on track/temp conditions.

That and DYO sucks most of the time,

Last year was insane, track temps were over 50! I wouldnt have run my car even if i owned a commodore :flamed:

Willowbanks' sheet metal stands dont exacly help cool the crowd/spectators down either :(

  • 3 weeks later...

would be nice to race, but guess there is no point at the moment.. I'll probably just spectate.

It was worth going to though.. esp. the model show :wassup: should make it an SAU event.. with a joint cruise down there and maybe a club area.. idea anyhow.

There goes that Idea.

DRAG COMBAT 2005

 

MEDIA RELEASE

Sydney: January 17, 2005

Drag Combat 2005

It is with deep regret that Cabin Auto Salon announces the cancellation of Drag Combat Queensland, which was to be held at Willowbank Raceway on April 2, 2005.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, however we will be working to secure another Queensland date hopefully sometime later in the year.

In the meantime Drag Combat will still feature at Quit Motorplex in Perth on April 23, and Western Sydney International Dragway on May 28.

Fine by me? I might come out and watch :mad: By the looks of that email, it looks like they are trying to get another date in Brisbane, just depends on willowbanks availability.

Sucks about the weather last year, i think that's got a lot to do with it being cancelled. :mad:

    • Thank you for the feedback bro. Looks like it’ll have to stay off the road till it gets an ecu 
    • Only if you do not You will not be able to drive it with any serious load without risk of it pinging, which will either slowly or rapidly kill it, depending on how bad it is.
    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
