    To those that I borrowed stuff off

    tyre pressure gauge

    &

    C spanners.


    I shall return them I promise! My mate and I were just caught up trying to raise my fucking car all night, didn't get to fit the drag radials - pretty annoyed.

    Decided just to slap my 'hella flush' (stretched 235 on 10" wide rim) wheels..and just stall the car upto 3800rpm and just have a bit of fun (couldn't do skid either because I got no tread left)

    Totally rad fun.

    Nothing broke this time!! (cept for a escapee air filter, which was easily re-attached)
    Best run:
    ET: 13.825
    TS: 112.92mph (181.72km/h)
    60': 2.54 ...boo

    Totally get into 13.5 with some decent tyres & launch.
    Will post some vids soon.

    Thanks for organising Rudi! Much fun was had. Century isn't as fast as Decade, but easier to launch. I reckon there is a ~14.1 in it with a good launch, but for the moment, I have to deal with this being my best:
    ET: 14.351
    TS: 96.67mph (155.57kph)
    60' 2.250

    Side note, suspension is showing its age. Tramps like a bitch when it starts wheelspinning.

    Two videos I chucked up:
    Last Run ~14.5
    Second Last Run ~14.4

    Subframe spacers are your friend!!!

    My z20 used to tramp like a bitch... even with brand new coilovers etc...

    installed 2 subframe spacers.. (under the rear parts of my subframe) and voila... no more axle tramp...... just wheelspin...

    sorry I missed the event too fella's.. would have been good to see some Toyota's giving it a spanking at the strip
    without the boring details, I have a crushed occipital nerve in the back of my neck - means much pain, and me not being able to have any fun basically.

    I'm sure there will be a full summer of TECCWA events for me to attend in 2012
