[cactus]

Damn... I really wanted to race :(

[Chompy]

I'll head down there, on the slight chance that it may be fine haha

[Turbo2.6L]

I'll be down there...

[Tre-Cool]

I'll be there in VE. hoping the fat bitch will finally get an 11.

[PERFORMANCE07]

Might come down if the weather's half alright

[Torquen]

[TORQUE UP] Cracking an 11... never thought id see the day :p

[zmk]

Don't know if I am reading correctly but it looks like bom have changed their minds on the forecast. 38 max with winds in the morming. Mmm

[Turbo2.6L]

Weather will be fine. Not a cloud in the sky...

[Chompy]

What time is everyone going down?

[big o]

test and tune today at the plex so the track may be half decent

[Turbo2.6L]

Competitors should be there for 5ish, spectators for 6ish Chompy.
Scrutineering starts at 5pm & racing at 6pm :D

[Tocchi]

you going down dean?
i have that drug money for you

[thnk_again]

the EL(ithink) xr8 should do a good skid tonight....

[Tre-Cool]

i didnt go.

to farking hot for good times anyway.

[Dzenci]

Just came from the plex, wasn't hot there at all.
Not a very big turnout tho, below average what there normally is but was good to see a vl do a 10.3 but didn't see it line up again. Intense spool on the launch, if someone off here you have one quick car.

[Turbo2.6L]

That VL ran 10.2X earlier in the night...
Seen CHOMPY's ute run a 12.80 on street tyres which i thought was a good effort! MPH seemed low for a cammed LS2 with stall & diff gears though?

still on maf tune and she isn't running the best still, I may have to take it to mitch and deb to get tuned, I was on traction control the whole time too, first time out on 20s and I'm happy with the pass, just got to get used to take offs, a few times it hit the limiter before it changed gears so I need to get that sorted out

[Turbo2.6L]

What mph were you running?

[Chompy]

106.8 I think was the best :/

[Chompy]

Def think a charger will be the way to go now lol

[Daisy]

what was the relative air density/altiude reading on your print out??

[Turbo2.6L]

Density altitude & humidity readings will be at the bottom of your timeslips.
Post them both please :D

106mph is waaaayyy low? Time to see WA Performance!

[cactus]

106mph is rediculously low....

[Torquen]

+1 for 106mp/h being really low if your cracking a 12.8. My PB is a 12.8 as well but at 113.5mph.

[Turbo2.6L]

Auto v manual.
Decent 60' v 3sec 60'.
Not same

[pigger23]

was so shocked at that vl. wasnt expecting that off the line. waited all night to watch another run, but i didnt see it again....

[Chompy]

just read the slip and the mph was 108.56 and 60' was 2.049

[thnk_again]

not a bad 60ft for 20" but traction control would help that i suppose,
I went 108mph with a 12.6et... prob wont get any faster unless i get more mph right??

[Lasoya]

I would think so, im running 113 and 114mph in my runs and im gettin 12.42, i know i should be going a little quicker though

My 60' is better than his. I got a 2.001 60'

[4SinAir]

seen a awsum lookin commonwhore (sarcasim) in the burnout comp failed doin a skid then car died then wouldnt start so he tryed gettin battery pack out an yet still failed to start it back up!

Gear chages aren't quick enough then.
As you can see, 12.80 is achievable at 108mph with a similar weighted car.

[cactus]

I've run a 12.8 @ 115mph ... I guess when your running 2.5sec 60' that happens!! Will be down there next week.

Could be, also manual XR6T's dump alota boost on gear changes so that will kill your times to.

[SSICK]

excuses excuses.

[Torquen]

excuses excuses.

:D Ill get a better time out of her eventually...

[Chompy]

excuses excuses.

Cheers for the words of motivation Tom
