So say i race you, let you go first and i wait and get myself comfortable and 5-10seconds after you leave i take off and run my time you get your time blahblah and i still get my 12.5 it doesn't affect it.

Man, if you're still there after 10 seconds I'm gonna leave the grandstand and push you down the track!

last night update...

it was farking freezing....after a massive burnout i reeled off a 15.6 cause i had absolutely no traction in 1st, 2nd, and the first time no traction in 3rd...scared the shit out of me....

2nd run pulled off a tidy 13.149 just beating my old pb, sub 2 60ft at 104mph

3rd decided to try a short shift 3rd so it came on boost in 4th before i crossed the line....ran a 13.244 but at 107.5mph, got an extra 3.5mph but didnt help my time....

4th was a blinder through 1st & 2nd....left parts of third on the track as i crunched hardcore.....

5th was best of the night....ray told me what 2rismo told him regarding 2 stage launch technique.....tried it and did my best 60ft of 1.911. Almost 12's

60ft 1.911

E/T 13.081

MPH 104.25

Disappointing night for me.. hence why i didn't call/sms you 2rismo :ninja:

Track was cold and slippery i felt like a hovercraft when i was in 3rd/4th gear going down the track, i REALLY need to learn to do burnouts.. Benm warned me to smoke em up i ATTEMPTED too but as soon as i tried the car went sideways and my tyres were still cold :ninja: <so hard to make the car stay still for burnouts - Moanie you gotta give me some BURNOUT lessons>

Still managed a 12.913@114mph with a crappy 2.05x 60ft though

VESPA: i Saw your car in the car park when i arrived and went into my staging lane, then you disappeared what happened did you something give way?

Congrads on the New Pb Brendan i reckon a few more runs with 2rismo's launch technique<which i haven't perfected> and your in the 12's mate

    • yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)
    • Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions
    • Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣
    • Is the toolbox that damaged the boot seal the same item that fell on the car during the storm a while back?
    • Who are you to deny yourself? I’ve said this many times to myself and apart from getting what I really want, I go quiet for a while whilst working out what I just did to my savings and how will I afford what it cost, then, next payday…
