Hi All,

Just a reminder that Drag Wars is on this weekend, so make sure to get down and support the event, either by entering or spectating. This is the last dedicated high-tech event for the year, so make sure you come on down. Details below.

Cheers

Paul

After a successful return to Quit Motorplex last season the popular Street meet for Vehicles powered by 4 cylinder , 6 cylinder and Rotary powerplants returns on Saturday night October 15. A fully prepared track awaits the 140+ Hi Tech racers who will converge on the Quit Motorplex for a bit of quarter mile action with some great trophies and prizes up for grabs!

There are classes for:

.: AWD - All Motor All Wheel Drive

.: FAWD - Forced Induction All Wheel Drive

.: RWD - All Motor Rear Wheel Drive

.: ANDRA Sport RWD - Forced Induction Rear Wheel Drive - Download Regs Here

.: FWD - All Motor Front Wheel Drive

.: ANDRA Sport FWD - Forced Induction Front Wheel Drive - Download Regs Here

* Forced Induction = Turbocharging, Supercharging or Nitrous Oxide

.: EXTREME - ANDRA 4,6 & Rotary Group Two and Three race vehicles

Note - Depending on entry numbers on the day some brackets may be combined.

There will be trophies and prizes for the quickest time recorded in each of the categories plus trophies and prizes for the winners and runners up in each of the brackets.

Handicapping will be the Dial Your Own (DYO) index system which means anyone can win!

This is definately one of the great Hi Tech events of the season and chance for everyone to blow the cob webs out after the winter break.

There will also be a burnout competition with great trophies and prizes for the winner and runner up.

So mark Saturday night October 15 in your calendar for the annual Hankook Performance Tyres 4+6+Rotary Drag Wars - and remember - "If ya have an eight...leave it at the gate!"

Go to www.motorplex.com.au click on the Hankoon 4,6, Rotory dragwars under events and you'll see a pic of my car :) hehe

I won't be there unfortunately ;) I have a family function on that day.

Has anyone seen any advertising for this event, either on TV, radio, newspapers or flyers? Just wondering how much promotion is being given to Hi-tech events.

pauly, the 1st i heard about the event was here in this thread, i would have made an effort to have my car ready if i knew there was a drag event coming up

I actually heard on the radio last night at the gym, but still think there is a severe lack of promotion of this event. Hopefully we can improve that in the future.

The government wouldn't be happy with that though, having publicised nights dedicated to this sort of thing. It would mean less cars to impound, and less stories for the news about all those young hoons in high performance cars. Today Tonight will be feeding on scraps.

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
