A crew of us will be heading up to supernats a yearly pilgrimidge we take. Great show and good racing, all put on by a good team and of coarse Ahmed. So if anyone is heading out dont be shy to come say g'day we will be there with the dark blue FC Holden with a v8, and also a dark purple vl commo with a rb20. If any of you drag regulars are going to be there let me know so I can do the same, come say g'day!!

Cheers,

Daniel

Seen your car doing some runs, looks cool and goes well also awesome street car you have there!!!

Old man picked up overall winner of show and go, so it was a long but good weekend, awesome event that gets better and better every year. Hopefully in the future ANDRA and WSID will actually work for there money and prepare the track properly, as alot of people we talked to said it was ridiculousy bad, people like Mark Hayes with the baby blue torana said it was the worst track they have experienced there since it opened!!!

I've been to pratically every single event WSID has ever held (except for motorbike events pfft) and I must say that the Supernats was easily the best event i've ever been to by an absolute country mile.

Their is nothing better than watching some of Sydney's best Rotors against some blown v8's running door handle to door handle. It was also nice to see some decent burnouts (compared to the lame ass wed nite attempts).

Soon as their was a problem on the track (oil down or accident etc) Ahmed was straight out into the pits hustling guys to do some big burnouts or do something crazy. That's exactly how an event should be run, none of this 30min break stuff and then cut things out (or short) because they run out of time.

The Supercruise was tops to watch, their was too much happening at once, if only I could have kept 1 eye on each end of the track I would have been happy. Their were also plenty of babes around the place (i'm hoping someone is going to post some pics up???).

The perfect leadup to the Summernats in 2mths :D

Top event, 9.8 out of 10 (loses 0.2 because it was a hot day).

I agree. It was defnitely the best organised event I have been to at WSID and much better than any of the other Jamboree or import drag events I have been to. There was never a break of more than 15 mins with either burnouts or other entertanment that made for an action-packed day. Well done to Ahmed and the Supernats group.

that bezerkly skyline looked like he strugeld to get his launch right, bogged down everytime i saw it. but looked like it had some pretty mean top end

First time racing EVER and he clocked a best of 12.2 @ 124mph! When I told him what 124mph translates to in terms of potential he freaked out a bit... lol Not bad for some well sorted bolt-ons.

Look for him at every event in the immediate future (I think the bug has bitten) :P

It was a top day and what an event for his first run ever! Talk about pressure to perform :unsure: . 12.2 was a good time and 124mph is brilliant! We only got a few runs so there isnt much practise time!

It was an adrenalin filled day and night, with sunburn , laughs and snags as well....

;):D:P:D:P

awesome day, bit burnt now though.  that bezerkly skyline looked like he strugeld to get his launch right, bogged down everytime i saw it. but looked like it had some pretty mean top end

I have to agree this years Supernats was awesome had time in between runs to head up into the grandstands and watch the big boys play little dissapointed though as the heat worked against me all day with some new Falkens I could not get anywhere near my best time.

Did have some issues though with intercooler piping though.

13.9 was the best for the day.

Had fun doing burnouts on the supercruise though

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
