Anyone going to be out there? I'll be up with a mate who is racing in SF hoping to take out the class.

Hmm, I might go along if the missus hasn't already planned something. There is also the Nostalgia drag racing on the 17th at Willowbank if anyone is interested

**chris davey** · 12-08-2008, 07:09 PM

I am there and racing in ET class in my Corona.

**finney** · 21-08-2008, 01:25 AM

I'm heading off tomorrow.. staying in ipswich

I'll be out there both days with a mate racing a red pulsar if anyone wants to swing by and meet up. I think we'll most likely be in the pits near rocco and his RX7.

Good luck with the racing for all those entered

I was there on the Sunday.

Didn't get to see the backyarder race though, apparently he blew the gearbox on Saturday.
Did anyone see him run on saturday?

So how did you guys do Phil and Chris?

phils boost controller was spiking so took it off and just ran 12psi and was runnng mid 13's. to my surprise got knocked out first round.

I ran a PB 10.79@127 in qualifying, then my ecu fuse blew in first round so got knocked out. Was planning on breaking out on my 11.00 dial in anyway

1jz747 broke an axle as I understand it when he had an 8.90 dial in so was going for it!

The pulsar Finney was working on went high 11's which he said was the first street tyred pulsar to do that so they were doing well.

Also met up with Sean aka Supercrown and his mate Alex again. I think a few other toymodders as well but I am sorry if I have forgotten. Memory is pretty bad

Great weekend!

**finney** · 26-08-2008, 03:45 PM

congrats on the PB chris.. any word from the officials about a cage in yours etc?

PB of the weekend for my mate was 11.73 @ 119mph after he red lit in the semi's. ended up 3rd for the weekend and 2nd for the series.

**chris davey** · 26-08-2008, 03:51 PM

nope, snuck under the radar somehow. Had 3 more runs on sunday after I had already run a 10

Congrats for your mates PB. As I said that is seriously impressive for a street tyred FWD!

I saw you in the crowd also phil, but had the decency not to take a photo

-but I admit I did take a photo of the rona in the staging lanes despite there being people in the photo.

I'm paranoid now

so back to the point, did the backyarder do any runs on Saturday?

**finney** · 27-08-2008, 05:21 PM

only one that I saw that was a 30 sec pass..

heard something along the lines of the car jumping out of 1st gear.. not 100% sure what was wrong. did a stout burnout as usual before the run but then off the line it didn't want to go.
