I Learnt How To Drag Race On The Weekend.

[1JZ.747]

It was an auto only tip. Basically I had one foot on the brake and the other stalling it up but the tip was to use the handbrake as well so as to hold it stronger. Got about 150 extra rpm which got me about 5 psi boost off the line.

I also utilised previous 2rismo tips in doing 3rd gear burnouts. Tyres were nice and warmed up although a couple of times when the burnout wasn't quite as big I found out how far down the track the prep went. Top of 2nd gear wheel spins anyone? It doesn't even do that on the street with my shitty Falkans.

the old hand brake routine, yep been using that one for a while, helped my sixty foots emensly, though its time to tighten it up again.

Nice one Adam - well done mate

What was your 60' time when you ran the PB?

[2rismo]

I believe it was a very low 1.9

nice one Adam!!!! its rather strange though how it takes so long to crack a decent time then once its been done once, it happens several times in a row.... happens to me every time :(

how do we find out about these private track hires though, i need some more practice now :):)

I think it was a low 1.9 but I got a high 1.8 on another run but accidentally short changed 1st gear and made up for that blunder by hitting the rev limiter in 2nd giving a crap time instead of what it could have been.

If I had known you were keen I would have let you know Brad. There was a few spare spots. I'll pm you if I see something come up.

I keep forgetting to bring the timeslip in to work to scan.

hey they are some pretty good times.

1 question though, would your times have improved if it was manual? (assuming you can launch and change gears right etc)

not bagging autos or anything, just curious.
