took it for a couple of drives around the 'test track' over the weekend....its a totally different car at the same power level as the low-mounts. Its going to be a very quick car down the 1/4 as im sure it would run faster even now...im sure i could have it in the 9.60-9.70 bracket without too much trouble. Another 200KW is going to have me very busy behind the wheel keeping it in the lane and off the walls. I was actually a bit short of a word after a very spirited session on Saturday afternoon...which is very out of character.

if i run it over 140MPH ill lose my 'get out of gaol free' card and ill have to rock up next time with the parachute. Ill save it for Compak...even though Mark said he would send his chute down for me to use. He's confident if i can keep it in the groove a very low 9 is possible. Two runs below 9.1 will get me the National record and a 9.44 will have me jump up to 4th in the HPI drag records list.

well why dont u stop fluffing about and put the damn parachute on, hell i'll send mine down if you want.

the parachute rule is a wank and dates back to when cars had drum front brakes...id like to run without one to be honest...and ill put one on only when they make me.

well you know that lovely feeling when your seeds cop one...the one that travels up your groin towards your hip...i had that for 3 days solid...morphine tablets were my best friend. All good now...im only on 3 types of medication now including 6 hourly double doses of Panadine Forte. Im able to properly stand and walk not looking like someone has clouted me in the jewels.

If you are dropping 4 Panadeine forte at a time, frequently, you liver will suffer some pretty serious damage. It is often permanent, best bet is going back for some endone, that is what they gave me for the wrist(in a cast), or even just codeine to take with the P.F. to strengthen it up!

Take care and good luck with the record attempt's!

The car is entered for Compak Attak next Sunday at WSID. Setting up suspension tomorrow as its still set-up for circuit as our circuit car borrowed all the suspension for Superlap last year. Ride height needs to be raised and camber, castor and toe settings need to be changed. Mark will be flying down next Friday night to tune it in Sydney on Saturday and ive ordered a special brew for the tuning at $13.25 a litre it sure is pricey as its leaded it cops a heavy carbon tax. Ouch.

He's confident of an output around 850+whp without too much trouble.

9.44 is the target ET. but if i leave the track with a PB thats a success as far as im concerned as i havent raced the car for 11 months and will have 200whp more. It sure will be a handfull.

There will be some competition for you Paul at the Sport Compact next weekend, JUN r32 from CRD should be there.

:(

Rob's car should run faster than mine. He's got all the little problems ironed out in the car and its now super quick. But due to his car being a non ANDRA log booked and tech'd car id say his day will be over in 1 run. He is racing Devlish as well so at least he has a back-up car to run. All that aside i should be the slowest car in the Modified Compact Class but due to 12 entrants at least ill be able to qualify for the eliminators...then its DYO handicapped...they will have to try and run me down.

Im doing a few pump fuel shakedown runs on friday night if i can get on the entrant list (entry's have closed but i may be able to run if someone pulls out). Its been 11 months since ive raced and i think a few passes on lower power to see if its running straight would be good.

EDIT: ive just looked for Rob's name on the entry list and neither car is listed as entered. Entries close in 45mins. Get onto it Rob.

      NC MX5

      Oh wow, it's easy to forget how cheap these can be. Probably the cheapest way to travel. Though people in cars here tend to be morons and I would not feel very safe. Were scooters ever big in Australia? It used to be the thing growing up in Europe ~20 years ago. 50/70/125ccm Peugeot or Yamaha and some others. Utterly obnoxious Polini race exhausts. Kick stands that slant as much as possible. So loud. So much noise for really not moving very fast at all. But it felt cool at the time. Not sure where I'm going with this, but there is an aftermarket for mopeds! Though I'd have pictured you more for a Goldwing kind of guy after growing out of the Harley.

      As the MX5 isn't apparently "manly" enough, and I need something for runs to the local shops, and also take to my part time job at the salon, basically I can keep the MX5 away from car parks and stuff......like "flying lockers", I was wondering what I could buy to fix this issue LOL, I pick up a new Yamaha 125 Delight this arvo from Trooper Lu, basically a R1 that you can fit a slab of beer on between your feet, also, it was $29400 cheaper than a R1, so actually it's 2 x better than a R1

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Nah. H2S. H2S is "rotten egg gas", which is what is associated with no cat. SO2 is equally nasty, and if you've ever smelt it you'll know all about it. More of a choking, acid in the back of the throat sort of thing. But you can only smell it in a narrow range up to about 1ppm. Above that, it irritates your mucous membranes, but you don't smell it.
