Well tonight was pretty succesfull all round. Most of all macca.

I ran a 13.8, which I was very pleased about, Couldn't do it again though!!

Macca started with a 13.06, which we were all impressed with. But he had to show off and pull a 12.9 on his final atempt!!

Sean(or shan?) was pullin 13.1's to I think about 13.6's.

And adam was havin a bit of trouble with his car, 14.4 was his best I think.

Paul Didn't race cause his car is slow.

But all in all a pretty good night. (I'm F#ckin Happy!!)

We think Hicks actually picked up someone else's slip cause he only ran 14's when people were watching. :DThe only reason I didn't run was casue I had to lend my racing slicks to Macka, only reason he got the 12.9, other wise I'd have shown you what a 13 sec car looks like.

Well done Hicks.

See'ya:burnout:

Well done Hicks.. not a bad effort at all.. gotta be pretty happy.

Adam.. you can try again when you get the car sorted out. If you don't burn it between now and then. Just have faith.

and Macka, bloody Macka.. just when I thought I had ya beat. Well done old boy, 12.98 is somethin to be proud of...especially seeing as you raced the whole night without blowin anything up.

Well I'm pretty stoked with my 13.10 ... the little Sr was screamin it's head off all the way down the quarter.

Time for some real mods.. please God, gimme 12's . :(

Hehe I think most of us were happy with the results,

On one run it was pretty funny Hicks took 2 car lengths on me at the start and then he looked at me as i flogged past him and I waved :D I think thats when u got u your 13.8 Hicks :(

I pulled my 12.98 Racing that Torana and he blew me a new hole but thats when i did my best too..

Oscar (Shannon) Did bloody good thats when i thought they were having Timeclock problems when he showed me his 13.2 first run!

KillerT Those tyres are top secret, They are worth a lot maybe we can do a deal haha.

Dont tell GTS-t VSPEC hey but ill give u a hint, It wasnt the tyres that did it :(

Macka,

What do you mean it wasn't the tyres!??? It must be that large snail that crawled into your engine bay. Shit, just imagine the time you could have got on some decent tyres, probably would have fried your clutch though if you got more traction.

See'ya:burnout:

      It's all about reducing the overall output. Reduce the source of it, you have wayyyy less to deal with in every other step and trick you play with. It's why something like a modern vehicle, so VW, Audi etc, there's thousands of tables for the ECU to calculate what it should be doing with the engine.   Why would you NOT reduce emissions the most effective way possible, when it has very minimal tradeoff, AND manufacturers are always struggling to meet the current standards.

      Yeah I've personally seen the RB26 pull 30 degrees of ignition timing out of the base timing map if the ECU detects a cold start, it nearly starts misfiring because of it around 2000 rpm and it feels like the engine has no power. I'm just surprised that modern OEM control strategies are actually trading off efficiency for in-cylinder emissions. I would expect something like aggressive EGR dilution + tumble generation valve use to improve EGR tolerance to reduce in-cylinder NOx + HC from crevice volume while also reducing throttling loss vs pulling out some timing if not knock-limited.
