I rang around Palmy and no one was going to be able to help me out with what I wanted. Never got any drag tires but I suspect I might be able to get an ok time anyway - gonna aim for the 12 second range anyway.

Who else is going to be over there?

[big-ben-007]

If you want to make a trip I know Dave Hadley Tyres in the Hutt(0800 HADLEY) can suss hoosiers if requested I believe, you just would have to get some suitible 12"/14" rims

I'm still making the trip over, just gave the car a clean to make it look respectable

[holden_fan2005]

As Ben said I'll be heading over in the maxima ( http://www.wheelnut.co.nz/wn/jadehttp.d ... d=2088.273 )

Ill be doing photos so if you see some young fella on the startline with a orange high vis vest, thats me .

Ill be at Masterton at around 1.30-2pm due to a small f-up so I now have to stay at home until midday Sunday will depend on how hungover I am but I should be there bright and early

See ya guys

Whos heading over tomorrow? I heard start is around 9.30, is that right?

[flygt4]

was a mean r34 GTR there, did 2 runs , pulled a 10.8 on the second run and didnt see it again

ran down GTRPWR from 6-7 lengths behind in a very impressive way.

white r34?? saw it at port road. supposedly around 900hp at the wheels mark, recently imported it, I spotted it driving around the hutt with a few top fuel stickers and what was maybe a top secret sticker. had a quick talk with the owner at port road he's only recently imported it from japan said he didn't know too much about it apart from it was rumoured to have run 9 second 1/4's in japan. also ran down that purple RAWGTR over the 1/8 mile after RAWGTR was probably already at the 100metre mark haha the white r34 seemed to have problems launching

I ran two flat 14's yesterday, and ran 3 mid 13's today!

Best time was 13.5 @ 107mph - 2.2 60fts
but still not fast enough yet!.

Cambo1 ran a 11.7 yesterday in his Evo.

[Mr Revhead]

nice one


yeah 11.75@114 i hear! well done!

[loose_unit]

I ran a 13.03 @ 100. Low trap speed coz i couldnt get it into 4th and coasted for like the last 40m. 2.01 60 ft on that run.

I also think that the NZDRA rules state that if you go under 11's (I think) you need a roll cage, dont know if he had one or not, but he might've been banned for going to fast

And for the people who left becuase of the rain they missed a brilliant final of top alchohol, with a 6.32 vs a 6.45 (I think)

I ran low 16's both day's with a full tank of gas on board which was a brilliant idea , and when I finnally started to take weight out of it(spare tyre etc.) and put ice on the inter-cooler I had a stuffed clutch that was slipping all the way down the track , so improvement is definantly there

Clutch now need replacing and was interesting driving over the hill

awesome! about time what changes did you make? did you go with street tyres today?

loose unit , bloody hell thats a quick starlet man

i'm pretty sure either they stopped the gtr running or he decided he was happy and went home. he would need to be running a fair bit more power than GTRPWR to pull him in like he did, so would have to be more than 450kw atw. r34 is heavier too i think.

[holden_fan2005]

I only ended up going today but it was a mint meeting! Some small but effective track improvements. A nasty crash today with a few other cars doing lane changes too.

The rain was a bit of a bugger tho . . . . . .

i had a shite day today

[Crucible]

haha yeah I ran street tyres on the warm up run to see if that made a diff, wheelspin 1st, right through 2nd gear.

put the hoosiers back on with a bit more press in em, set the launch on the link to 8500 with some boost and my times seemed were consistant from then on.

0.5 away from 12s

Dave in the Blue Mivec Lancer, run a mid 11.7? today, 600hp on c19

[CAMB01]

I finished 2nd overall in 4wd turbo.
With a best time of 11.75 @ 114mph.

EDIT: My car didnt break
