I'll be working this Sunday

Brick better do some more good skids.

Yes there are supposed to be two jet powered cars there.

What time does it all kick off on Sunday,
and what time do we have to be there to enter and run?

I'd say gates would open at 9. Scrutineered by 10:30. You just drive right up to the pits now to be scrutineered.

I'd go if someones got a blow off valve I can borrow.
Otherwise I'll have to wait till next time.

I'm good to go for my 2nd attempt at 12's.
You don't need a front bumper to race do you?
Hope not.

by **luvnit** » Sat Jan 07, 2006 9:50 pm

im pretty sure that you do need a front bumper to race

Really?
$&#$% it. I'll try anyway. The scrutineering seems to be quite lax.

by **[A NINJA]** » Sun Jan 08, 2006 6:36 pm

The jet car were soooo impressive! those guys are mad to drive them!

by **diss7** » Sun Jan 08, 2006 8:25 pm

Those jet cars were definetly impressive.

I got in fine with no front bumper...

My fastest qualifying was almost a 12sec pass......

Then I finally got my 12sec pass! Too bad I broke out but meh.

Awesome stuff. That front mount has given you a heap more power for you to add 4mph to your trap

by **diss7** » Sun Jan 08, 2006 8:48 pm

Yea aye, now when I launch it grips then peels up again. I did my good runs after the alcohol cars ran, then I went on their warm skids and got traction.

It was damn hot tho. I think it could a little bit better at the night drags coming up.

Its just not the same at Ruapuna with no hairdresser cars, hint hint.....
