We've got some blue poking through, with nearly all grey everywhere else though. Fingers and toes crossed. Turbo weather FTW!

[WA_TRD_83]

it was raining as I hit the reply button..

now its stopped raining!?

Oh well, still a few hours to go for the weather to sort itself out!

[JustCallMeOrlando]

This is a repeat of the last time we went to the drags. It looked touch and go all day then cleared up enough...or it could be like the week before that when it did the same thing but then it rained and it was cancelled

[82MKII]

Sorry Guys - my mate with the XB has had to pull out.
He spent all weekend making sure it was spot on for the run as well - a real shame.
Work is flat out and I still reckon there's a fair chance they will cancel it - have a look at the radar.
Have a good time if it doesn't get cancelled.
Matty - I expect nothing less than a low 12!

Regards

Peter

does that mean im not aloud to run an 11?? or does that mean i have to run low 12's or 11's

Ah well i cannot predict wot i'l run, todd can you get down there early to start with the vids?? im not sure how many runs i will get out of my bottle of NOS

Matty

[JustCallMeOrlando]

Haha, restecp. I think you should be allowed to run an 11 Matty, but dont do it right away.

[GeneSPIDA]

I'm more likely not to go than to go at the moment. But this cool air would be great for the power.

Don't know what it looks like from where you guys are, but there's some pretty bad looking clouds around.

I think if I do go, it will be a pretty last minute decision.

[WA_TRD_83]

usually by now there would have been a notice by the Motorplex that the event is cancelled.. but its all good still..

weather is clear from where I sit in West Perth.. but could be a totally different story down south ??
The 'plex has my number anyway, I would like to think that if they cancel it they would give me a call.

For now - get revved up and get down there!..
some PB's will be run tonight!

ps. Matty.. I think i am the one that needs the NOS..
my 9psi is no match for you and Nathan running 17psi!

Damo

[JustCallMeOrlando]

Haha, you think those are clouds!? The bottle of Redex I just sucked through my engine made some clouds!

Fingers crossed, i'm changing my oil as we speak and then i'm going to put my interior back together.

[poombah]

they had the drags tonight?

looked like storm clouds down south from work this arvo.

[Jackel]

no comments on the drags? my friend took his supra (dark blue) down the 1/4 mile said it did a 12.8. Anyone got a video?

Yeah - I think his last run of the night was a 12.82 .. not bad from the MA70!
Unfortunately I didn't catch is name ??.. (please advise)

Is he on the forums? - perhaps he could spill some details on his car / mods ?

cheers
Damo

[WA_TRD_83]
