Hi Mate

yeah

Im there on weds getting some practise. also going for some low 11s.

i have some dead street rubber tho, so we'll see. im sure no traction will be an issue for me.

I presume you are in the All in 4,6,8 rotary DYO Street Class at the StreetCar Shootout?

hopefully we should line up against eachother on weds and have a larf.

thanks

Mick

I might make a trip out next Wednesday.

Got to get the FMIC installed first. It's fully restricting my power that I'm capable of getting as I'm only running stock intercooler right now.

Well then, no better person than Mick to give you a raping for your first time.

Just remember, dump the clutch on the last orange light....that's the one just before the green. This should give you a good reaction time.

And when you think you have crossed the finish, keep going for a bit....the track is a lot longer than you think and when you think you are finished you usually still have 100m to go.

[wrxkilla]

hahaha

its all so true daniel.

lol good advice!

[markr34gtr]

i will be there racing....

hope the weather is fine

[wrxkilla]

nice we have a few nissans then good stuff

[bazr33]

i will probably be heading out

as i just got my power fc in and put the boost up to 10psi

im guessing its going to be fairly busy, considering the shootout on saturday. last quarter run was 14.3, skidded all first

i want to let the tyres down abit but i dont really want to drive on 25 psi to the next petrol station. As i just got the tyres last week

it might not matter but oh well, i'll just have to try and control not skiddin as much at the start.

Good to see a couple of skylines headin out though, last ones i been too there has been a shitload of commodores and fords.

Ya kinda guess it though being in ipswich.

Anyway see yas there, hope yas pull some good times.

[jaqule]

hay jhon what to meet up and drive down

[gts25t4door]

Ill be there Saturday, but only as a spectator as my car is stock.

Good luck guys, lets see you give it to the bogans.

[wrxkilla]

yep if you guys are meeting post it i might come too.

[kenetic]

If your worried about pumping your tyres back up bazr33 why not get one of those cheap compressor's especially designed to do just what you want it to do.

[bazr33]

i might have to look into gettin one of those compressors

could come pretty handy later on

I left my tyres alone tonight

ended up doing a 14.089

reaction .654

mph 101.69

60ft time was 2.246

f**ked the start abit didnt have much revs .

and also let third rev out a little too long.

thought it was alright though.

getting closer to getting into the 13's

[NA_R33]

hmmmm well i had an interesting night.... didnt get out till like 7:15...

Did a half powerr lass to make sure it was gonna change gears... next pass i stalled it up and it skipped foward through the beams on the front runners.... Never driven with them before... Then it managed a reasonably clean 12.2@112mph... gearbox is shifting unreal.... really happy with that.... just got look at being super consistant now.

[wrxkilla]

nice well done.

i didnt have much chance to come say hi - i had sme small probs etc.

i saw a little burnout from you etc.

i ran a 11.91 @ 118.89mph lots of traction loss etc wasnt a full flat stick run.

but on other runs was having probs cog swapping...

need to change gearbox oil today/tomorow for sat.

got stuck in 2nd gear!
