OST drag night - Wed 20 Feb 2008

[Wildsupra]

i will try and strenthen the pvc further in order to continue running it, i dont want to give up on it yet ryan is right it has done me well and proved itself capable of 12 sec passes before

[WaynO]

Argh looks like my chipmunk noise might be my water pump... but if I can get ready with or without new pump Ill atleast take it down for a couple of runs!

[fixeruperer]

yeh i might come down for open wheel fun .
drags on 20th dyno tune in on 28th hmmmm maybe it should be the other way round, ill try to squeeze a tune in b4 the 20th.

its ok matt i win with lag i need to set up antilag because i have no launching boost

[Wildsupra]

I dunno man might be a lag battle up in here, im not seeing any positive pressure until upwards of 4k with full boost closer to 6k combine that with a standard torque converter and it makes for a long boring wait in first gear hehe

Bring it even if its not tuned mate, be wikid to see that beast in action!

[fixeruperer]

heheh "lag wars"
i get 3 psi to 4600ish then 5000rpm i have full boost so yeh you win .
but the auto should help to stage boost, get a trans brake there nuts to take off in hehe.
yeh i wouldnt mind seeing what mph the car will run.

[Wildsupra]

Yeah trans brake keeps on being suggested to me, and funnily enough with the auto controller i've now installed it would be so easy to do, but to be honest the it scares the shit outta me!!! I'l just wait until i sort out my 4k high stall, until then i must stay patient.

Have you run the sprinter before? i'd say mph is gunna be well up there ay?

Wayno... it could be an actual chipmunk?...
I like your commitment though..

Hopefully we have a few people to race. I know most pike at the last minute.. but if you can make it, I appreciate the effort people

cheers

Hmmm.. lag... someone remind me what that is again.
13psi at 2600rpm. 2J stock turbo setup FTW

I dont think ill be coming down cause the GX81 has no lsd and might do a backflip/barrelroll.

Pete.. you still planning on making the trip down next week?
I'm pretty keen to see what sort of times you can squeeze out compared to the 5M hehe
oh.. and to see if you can control it down the strip - I think that will be your hardest challenge!

I've been practicing the best way to launch, because it has no power and is auto ive found reving the clappers out of it and dropping d launches best in ECTS power mode.. :|

Yep - I'll be there practicing my granny shifts.
I actually get plenty of grip on the road - but I hear the strip is a lot slipprier, so that could make life exciting. See if you can arrange some cooler weather - the radiator is getting a hell of a workout these days.

[beatle]

nah its the oppasite hey, the launch pad at the drags is sticky icky, you can hear your tyres sticking to it after you do your burnout

[Jackel]

anyone reccomend a high temp lubricant to put on the turbo cause my wastegate is getting stuck?
