That 20B was insane and went 9.08 @ 146.26 in the next lane. I couldn't hear my car for the first 100' - it was ridiculous.

On of the marshalls came over to ask if i'd mind racing it. I simply asked if it had been going straight all day and when she said yes, I said hell yeah. :)

Top effort Adrian, looks like some more work in the shop before she is out again doing some more PB's.

Post up your full 11.9 and 11.8 details. How do they compare to the first 11.9 you did awhile ago? Picking up any mph or lowered that 60ft any further?

Well done Adrian. Cooler pipes are a farking menace, do you have silicone piping? Tridon make some great heavy duty style clamps which are what you need, they basically use a hge bolt to pull the two sides together, the clamp itself is about 12mm across :) If you can't keep a pipe on with them you cant keep a pipe on. Pirtek stock them

Just over a tenth in improvement but almost a tenth outside my best 60' time. These new tyres are better so with a 1.65 I'm hoping to see 11.70 as is.

The commentator probably just saw "Supra Motor" and made the jump himself.

Anthony (absolutely on a mission) is actually building a psycho 2JZ-TT in a full chassis hilux ute. Should be awesome.

Driven (very well) by Dom Rigoli.

 

:confused:LOL its an auto being driven in a straight line...:(

Cant help myself:)

Good times posted for the Skylines, the all silver R32 (I think it was two.06l seemed to be having troubles.:P)

Tthe day itslef was a bit disappointing. If it wasnt for the VW brigade it would of been pretty quiet:(

I think the Cabin guys need to somehow incorporate their series with the wider state or national series...as the number and quality of cars just wasnt there...

That said not trying to take away from the guys that ran...good work for giving it a punt. :D

I should have gone true drag style and given my keys to someone else to drive my car to see what times it can knock out...lol cheap shot No.2:)

I have to agree. seeing a whole heap of cars running 20 sec and 15 sec quarter miles was not very impressive. some nice cars though, and congrats to Adrian. great run mate. very nice :P that mazda really hurt my eardrums...

good to see Paul out in the GTR. looked very nice, but didn't quite get the 10 you were after :D

Roy would have raced but word is he was scared of Adrians RB25 with only his lil ol RB20 to go against it with... :(

Meh, on low boost i run 2mph slower, he got noth'n:)

that's the spirit. talk it up baby!

I fully expect to see you at the next meet :D

as a wise man once said: "don't be weak sauce".

Good to see a few Skylines out there punching in some good times today - well done 2rismo on the PB although I couldn't hear your car running next to that RX7 - damm that thing was loud! Good work to everyone else who was running as well :D

I have to agree that the event itself was a bit of a let down and it also plainly highlighted some of the inadequacies of DYO racing. To think a stock shitbox lancer running constant +18 sec runs could make it to the ET2 final is an absolute joke. There should be some sort of 'qualifying time' to make it to the elimations at the very least.

is this car entered in "street car of the year"?...looks like no points for the drag component of the scoring for all (and that includes Dominic, TOF-55T) competitors who do not comply with the ANDRA technical specifications, that have previously ran a 10sec pass.

they all got to race for SCOTY today early in the morning and as for the ANDRA rule all i have to say is...

bwaahhhahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

brians MR WRX has run 10.9 twice and they dont make him put a cage they just let him run again and again and again.

TOF55T has a cage

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
