yeah I avoided talking to him... I was behind you when he was chatting to you... I just quietly laughed to myself... heard something about him buying a new turbo

kosmoe · 23-06-2008, 12:43 AM

i had a great day guys it was good to meet a few new people ran a 15.3 by the end of the day

WPN XR6T · 23-06-2008, 05:27 AM

Yeah, the bloke came over and had a chat when I was lineing up behind him for one of my runs. Said something about being unable to get it to run right, and that he had just ordered an FG XR6T, and then ask if my car was one (an FG). Hmmm...

heathcote was alot of fun yesterday. worst pass was a 19.3 82mph (first pass) best run was a 15.8 86mph (last pass) i got 6 runs in and had an awesome time. shame i didnt do any wieght mods considering i also carried 3/4 of a tank of petrol down the 1/4 with me, hopefully go up again with interiors stripped out less fuel better ignition system to dial in more timing and different gear ratios (still had heaps left in it with 3.7). good to see the ba's running good times as well as the zephyer boys who were up there too. anyone see the green wagon with the 250 x flow turbo?

what happened when you ran a 19??

24-06-2008, 06:41 PM

his car is an xy not a ba.

Falcon4L · 24-06-2008, 06:42 PM

lol that might explain it. but still to get a 15 later on... big jump

24-06-2008, 06:46 PM

yeah i know, he had a 3/4 tank of fuel too. not bad for a 6cyl oldie.

yift · 24-06-2008, 07:19 PM

first run it popped out of first gear when i took of and wouldnt go back in! so i jammed it in second and took off. first time on the track but there is no way its going to be my last! next time i should take the ba for a squirt and see what it does

Falcon4L · 25-06-2008, 03:37 PM

I think it was that red one.

yift · 26-06-2008, 08:21 PM

not the red one that was pulling tens. mine was the acid rush one (gold)

Falcon4L · 26-06-2008, 08:26 PM

that red one was awesome... pulled up the front wheels a few times...I dont think I remember yours but I have a shocking memory anyway

yabby6 · 26-06-2008, 09:23 PM

Sorry couldn't end up attending guys, and couldn't get to a computer to let anyone know until the Sunday afternoon either (called in to work Saturday was there late, then a 21st Sat night, by Sunday I was shagged and needed the day off desperately).

Sounds like it was a good day anyway, looks like I've missed out on the drag racing this year between this and not racing when I went to Calder but oh well always next year. Some nice times too, well done everyone.

Ladiesman217 · 30-06-2008, 12:41 AM

Who's up for a run on Sunday 20th of July?

kosmoe · 30-06-2008, 12:48 AM

800

Ladiesman217 · 30-06-2008, 01:19 AM

It's only 40 bucks to race all day!!!

kosmoe · 30-06-2008, 01:23 AM

yeh but also payin for the petrol then servicing the car when i get back... may aswell wait till i done some mods b4 i go back

Ladiesman217 · 30-06-2008, 01:25 AM

Maybe, but if you did come you could get your base P.B. time and then each time you mod you can go back and race and watch your P.B. decrease as you go on man!!!

Doogstar · 30-06-2008, 01:51 AM

I will probably go before then, can let you know if you like if you want to come along?

Ladiesman217 · 30-06-2008, 02:05 AM

Weeeeell... Im looking at the heathcote racing calander right now and the next test n tune is on the 6th, which I cant make (the old chook is coming over from out of town for the weekend with my nephews) but any time after then maybe like the 20th! ill be able to come for sure

Ladiesman217 · 30-06-2008, 02:07 AM

I need to get a real reading of my times, the best I have achieved with a GTech is 14.47 I dont know how accurate those things are so thats why Im pretty keen to get on the strip asap

Best and IMO only place to see what you car will do is on the track.

30-06-2008, 09:02 PM

And yes track is the best way to determine your cars performance, on a gtech i ran consistent 14.1's and 14.2's where the track i ran 14.48 pb 14.60's and 14.70's.
