Drag Day, Wednesday July 5, during SOO 3

[Dust]

Stupid football, can't get a single mate to go with me, I dont fancy driving over an hour eachway by myself after workin 12hrs today. Next drag day, I am just going to stay silent and not post, it seems if I plan to go, shit happens :/

I was spectating (and Simon's missus do some child-minding) so i took a few pics. Was not really bright enough so the pics are a bit on the blurry side:

I managed to get there in the end! Put my spare diff in just in time

13.522 @ 105.xx

Was my best. (I miss my lsd *cry*)....And I still have a sneaking suspicion that I have a boost leak....

Adam ran a great time! 14.67? as did
Phil ran a 13.6x?!
Blake ran a 15.1x?

That is all I can remember off the top of my head (and may also be wrong!).

Cheers

lilcrash: Don't be too dissapointed. All about having fun.

WIlbo: great work on a short notice diff swap! Sounds like you had some traction issues!

Blake ran a 15.1? Did you have an jza61 vs v8ma61 race?

Hate to say it but so much for the 1gayzee

Sweet photos Charles! Thanks for that.

The old school celicas look tough!

Hope everyone had a great night and I plan on making it out on a Saturday in a few weeks as I have sorted my auto now.

15.1 in a V8 MA61, traction issues

[Joshstix]

What was the MPH on the super Windsor powered MA61?

[wilbo666]

Blake was in his AMG Merc....

he is too much of a girl to drag the v8 (or something like that )

Cheers

OK that explains a bit then still would think the AMG would be faster than that though.

[JustCallMeOrlando]

Damn willis, i'd be expecting more from ze AMG too....shit, that's slower than the 1G

[lilcrash]

i am doing my new ecu today so in a few weeks i want to go back to see if i can get a 14-15 second pass.

i would have liked to stay a bit longer but my gf was bored cause she had no one to talk to.

Well I did meantion he is a girl didn't I? lol

In his defence it was his first time ever at the drags!!!, and he didn't get it up on stall on the line....
I think there is a bit more in it..

Pfft was my first time to, no excuses.

[chris davey]

Merc, pfft!

Thought he was going to bring out the ma61 of death!

Couple of weeks hey!

WIlbo: buy a spare single spinner and get a CIG locker. Jam it in there, run a 12 and put the single spinner back in!

[JustCallMeOrlando]

HAha, the unfortunate fact is even without stalling it up, he probably still had a better 60ft than me.
