That "one sweet camera" is a Canon IxusV, that was on 1024x768xFine

It can do 1600x1200xSuperFine too.... but then i only get 80 shots of it.

I'll stick with 130shots of 1024x768

I got a few video's (yes, with sound) I may post up, but the resolution was down 160x120.... (could have had 640x480) so u can't even recognise the cars running.. they were skylines tho...

damn that was a good day.. 14 runs in total.

best of 14.66 with a full exhaust system.

all where pretty consistant with one another, if my 60footer was XX secs off my best, it was XX secs off the final time too.

would everyone be up for another once the wednesday nights start again. it'd be alot cooler.

techone ive seen run a 11.4 or was it 5.. anywho, it was quick :P

I think I have a video of it somewhere.

Well that was a good first run of all time:p

I gotta admit im pretty happy with 14.38 as not much has been done. I reckon i coulda got it down a bit but i was a bit stressed about the whole axle hop thingy. Come to the conclusion that my suspension is not too good for drags.

Good to see most you guys down there even though i missed a few of you im sure ill catch up at the next event.

BTW: when is the next event?

Cheers

Shaun:D

14 odd skylines on show!

Damn I am unlucky sometimes:(

Oh well I'll just have to wait for a mid week event so I can go too.

That mid 13 of 'buffy's (may she rest in peace) is still looking a fair way off for our GTST boys.

Who will be first to take the glory?

buffy's record is for stock turbo cars?

Killer-T and Macka don't qualify anymore as they have after market turbos hehe.

atm Grandenko has the best stock turbo run at 13.80 which is fairly close to buffy's 13.65.

Grandenko can have the title for stock turbo/ stock ecu/ stock ic, then.:P

I did a quick search on SDU and found Buffy ran a best ET of 13.71@169kph, although highest TS was 13.9@175kph. Both those runs had a 60' of 2.279. These numbers are from the orginal drag meet thread, where Chris ran Buffy for the last time (AFAIK). Its interesting reading through the archives and seeing Buffys quoted ET get lower and lower as the date gets further from the drag meet :)

Buffy had:

HKS Intercooler

3" exhaust

13psi boost

Apexi Power FC.

I'm not sure I qualify for stock turbo/stock ic/stock ecu title, as the s-afc could be counted as a piggyback device. I'll gladly take the stock turbo/stock ic title tho :P

And I'll be back for the wed night drags with a fmic to battle for Buffys title too :)

    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new  
    • Nissan needs to forget about building SUVs in every size possible and bring back the damn Silvia/200sx duo to compete with the 86/brz. Maybe with the Honda type r motor pointing the right way
    • Good to see you followed your heart, got your dream car and have it pretty well sorted out now. I think anyone can get caught out with a seller not being 100% honest about a cars problems. Can relate to all the electrical issues, had similar issues with my first car (mk2 escort) ages ago
    • I just bought the Nexus S3 for my gtt, haven’t installed it yet as I’m collecting parts to do everything at once…so far spent $14,000 The Nexus is nearly future proof
