Well guys Awesome day. Had fun. Beat some people
Joey and Slim wheres my money bitches! lol

Best time was a 13.93 in the highly unmoddified Mr2. Well spin is an issue as usual, but i was quicker than I thought. I almost cracked the 100mph as well. the 13 run I got 99.36 MPH if I remember correctly.

Now who were the people giving me crap for towing my car just incase. haha Rob thats you!!!! So yes very Lucky we were generous enough to let a FWD car onto our tralier! lol

Have to do it again. some info for you slim and joey. I did a 99mph run and that means I should get a 13.00 if I didn't wheel spin. but I remember joey got a 104mph run at one point, and if you get rid of the wheel spin you should have got around a 12.50!

So this brings me to my point of.....Learn to drive! haha jokes!

Silm a 100mph run is equal too a 12.95 to 12.90 run. so definatly need some launching work.

thanks for the assistance wombat
some things are too technical for me

[ian]

i did part of my apprenticeship with one of the owners of the shaker ,
on the original paint , Ray used his mums table cloth to spray through to get the pattern
it was a bit different to the one thats in the piccys now
he also owned a very quick EH streeter in full trim with triple SU's that did the 1/4 mile in 13.s
that was back in 66
pretty quick for then

it still managed an 11 second pass and the driver was on and off the throttle
it is now owned by the son of one of the origional owners
you may recall an FC holden named komotion (it belonged to my brother)
