Ugh what a shocking night :( :(

* Bad gear selection problems on all 5 runs

* Ben can't drive

* New rear muffler is super restrictive so I had no top end and low boost

* Ben can't drive

* Paul decides their aren't enough clouds in the sky so makes his own

* Ben can't drive

* Mark has a damaged gearbox

Ah well I still did a new PB's for everything (R/time, 60ft, TS, ET) so I guess I got what I set out to do. I'll be out there again sometime over the next month hoping for a massive improvement.

f**king worst experience of motoring i have ever done

shithouse f**king gearbox. did not wanna break it (so i would be around long enough for the burnout comp!!) so launched off slicks with low revs - bog down and get shithouse times

whack some streeties on. cant get into 2nd gear on the drag.

then burnout comp. car works for 30 seconds. then lose all power

f**k cars

wish i had a 6 pack in the fridge right now

Nick you bastard you didnt even say hi !!! :blink:

First time ever out on the drag strip.....so yeah not too pissed off but not too happy either about the 13.9.

What did piss me off was the fact that I only got 3 runs in the space of 3 hours......

Mark once again thanks for lending me the helmet......and I hope ya can get ya car up and running again..

Paul and Stace it was nice to finally meet yall :D

Lets hope it IS an oil seal and nothing major........

Did someone say twin HKS 3037s ???? :D

Ruk thanks for the ciggies between the runs........helped calm the nerves :D hehehehe....

Mona you suck at being pit crew......haha only kidding....thanks for coming out :)

Ok now that all the thankyous etc are out of the way.....I have to say that I now have a lot more "respek" for this drag racing thing....its not as easy as I thought.....and wsid only being 10min from my house...I think I could get addicted :D

but nah....have to stay true to circuit racing...

Oh and Pete...ie fatz....I cant beleive you carry an esky with you everywhere you go !!!!! oh and when can I get one of them clutchfcuker shirts ?? :D

hahahaha....

sounds like a busy night. did you run nick?

What kind of time did paul run before the failure?

and ben, must be good to be out in the GTR mate. i think we need to work on those short times though :P with the 104mph you should be able to drop down that time a bit without needing any more power. congrats though on breaking into the 13 sec zone :O:) :)

and every time i go i say man that was boring as shit... what a waste of time... and once again i left with the same feeling

mind you he two scouters running a 29's each was a highlight

the gtr that blew the turbo seal man you should have heard it at half track lol id say 10-20 seconds away from a massive engine blow up go the 5 cylinder gtr

marks car is dead and might have ripped its last burnout for a while

best part was the burnout truck ... yea baby

      My BMW 335i

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
