Munro Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 1.66 60' (down 2/10 on my best of 1.46!) Last best time was 9.66 @ 148.95 on the 1.46 60' Now best is 9.508 @ 153.03 which just took the Aust title Keir's record was 9.510 @ 152 on a 1.50 60' Loved running that V8 Torana down on the last run, was all over the track & nearly crossed the centre line in 5th & hit him! If I had backed off he would have beat me, so I kept on it,fought the steering wheel & got him by a bumper bar over the line.He had at least a car length on me with 50m to go & would have been suprised that I caught him! 9.849 @ 138.63 On the 153 mph run I was in 6th gear & kept it buried well past the speed traps - & it pulled up well(who says I need a parachute) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/11906-air-street-meet-5th-april-whos-running/page/5/#findComment-261801 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawley Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Tell the good people what RPM you were pulling on the 9.508 run , John!!! And about the drama's you went through to even get the thing back on the track for that run. Like I said to you on the night, things are sent to test people's endevour, you stuck at it and reaped the rewards. I did get the final 9.849 run on video, you can see a bit of a tango from the car. Damn fool didnt bother setting up the video for the important run though!! /trying to kick self in the head. Well done to MattR on your first outing... knocked 0.7 off his first run! Andrew with the snakies in the burnout pad!!! lmao I didnt see Whatsisname run. Bugger I saw Kier's one run, 9.9something, but heard noises halfway down the track, they think its a valve spring problem.

MattR Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 What is there Email address? I just think its fair that as many people as possible let them know that we were not happy with the orginisation the better?? anyone elses thoughts Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/11906-air-street-meet-5th-april-whos-running/page/5/#findComment-264329 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightcrawler Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 I sent a very long-winded email to [email protected] (I hope that's the right address) this afternoon about the whole debacle. After my spiel I wouldn't be surprised if they gave the whole of SAUSA a free ticket I complained on behalf of everybody .... but I still think everyone should send in their own opinions - what happened is just not on, in my opinion. Especially for guys like Matt (Whatshisname)! I consider myself fortunate to have had 3 runs in light of other's misforutunes!

MattR Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 I have just sent my email through to them aswell. Maybe they will get the idea that they need to change a few things and alot of people were not happy with the way it was run.
