when i say lag i mean the lag you get when you dont pick the revs up enough and leave the line off boost, then you have to wait for them to spool again... you know what i mean... even the tiny little CT12A's have lag!![]()

hmm i think its going to rain dood, but thats ok because you've got all paw drive!
At 11:00 am the Perth radar showed isolated showers to the west. The approach of
a cold front will cause a few showers to develop late afternoon or evening and
continue during Thursday with cool fresh and gusty SW'ly winds. On Friday expect
a morning shower or two. On Saturday fine conditions should return with fine and
warmer weather forecast for Sunday.
My car ain't going anywhere with BHG. I'd hesitate to say it's going to rain as well dude.

well it didnt rain at all down there and it was pretty much empty not a lot of ppl went to spectate. But bout a few races including myself.
I was very shocked in wha time i ended up running. On one of the websites i was told that the ST185 would run 14.6 down the quarter but when i ran with upgraded POD, and dump pipe i only ran a 16.073 @ 139.40Km/h.
That was the fastest and best time id done all nite. My first run was a 16.49 @ 134.9Km/h. Neways i am looking at upgrading the IC to a FMIC cos the top mounted IC i have draws way to much hot air. I am also going to install a boost controller and later on upgrade the turbo with a GT3040R. By then i should be running really good times.
Neways would like to see some of you guys down there so i can see what your times are and have a look at your engines, mods and times.
I had 4 wins, 3 from against a Silvia and the other one was against the Blue VL Turbo.
Neways hope to hear from you all

hahaha nice![]()
the wiseman (me) says..... get tires nice and hot and sticky by smokin the hell outta em in the dry bit, then hold engine RPM at about 4500 then drop the clutch and pray to the big man upstairs that all the relevent bits in the driveline hold together!! I have found this to be the most successful technique. Also lowering tire pressures to about 15psi makes a huge difference to wheelspin, well lack of should i say, off the line.Originally Posted by rob_85

The wiseman is currently sitting back with a smile on his face knowing that no matter how dodgy anyone thinks he is and no matter how much any1 wants to bag him out, he still has the satisfaction of coming through with desired results, un-matched by the people baggin him outtis all good!!
Matty
as i can recall, you were also the one who told me about the car, ordered the engine, and helped me put the prick in, so you weren't really doing much to support your cause were ya?Originally Posted by Wildsupra
your results are unquestionable, we've all seen it, ive experienced it, as you saw when i crunched third... i think it was third...?
you also didnt tell me that the 1J cut you had in your posession wasnt needed anymore
