MrSnrub Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 Summoner - Nah its on the 18th...... next Sunday. Boostor as for insurance, there is very little that can happen on a drag strip. Driving ina straight line..... not much can go wrong. Apart from a mechanical failure but thats not covered by insurance anyways.

Guest Rhino Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 Nah Boostzor I was just trying to get an indication of the number of cars we are going to get down there. Fingers crossed for fine weather. We'll make a decision about it sometime late next week. Cheers, Ryan.

Guest Rhino Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 Sounds like we live within a few minutes of each other Boostzor, I have seen a few supras like yours floating around the Bullcreek/Willetton area but to be honest haven't looked to closely at them to see if they ahd the same mags as you. Question: For ppl who have run a 1/4 before what sort of launch rpm do you use and how different is it from the rpm you use on the street? higher...lower?? Just trying to get a rough idea of what to try on the 18th.

EVL R33 Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 Ryan, Dude you don't need to worry about wheel spin anymore!!!!! You have 4WD!!! Just dial up lots of revs and let Nissan's finest deal with the rest.... I still haven't seen the new rod, hopefully I'll be there on the 18th....

Boostzor Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 I think Gradenkowas saying launch at around 5.5 when on street its like 4.7. I launch alot earlier so im not sure about the lines. Leaving work to go get my car back now minus one wheel (spare) and one flat battery due to the fact its been left off the road soo long. *does the anti-moron dance* :burnout: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/2067-motorplex-meet/page/4/#findComment-43949 Share on other sites More sharing options...

macka Posted August 10, 2002 Share Posted August 10, 2002 Whos Andrea? Rhino i would be launching at 6.5 with yours definately, even 6.8 cause the ground is much sticker than tarmac usually and easier to bog down Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/2067-motorplex-meet/page/4/#findComment-44202 Share on other sites More sharing options...
deesh Posted August 11, 2002 Share Posted August 11, 2002 http://www.andra.com.au They are the drag racing governing body. They take care of licencing, rules, all the boring stuff. To drag race you have to have an andra licence, thats part of the fee you pay to race at the plex. Theres some info there, and some on the plex site, that tells you exactly what you get for your money.

rob77 Posted August 11, 2002 Share Posted August 11, 2002 Well I just got the KCA349 parts fitted for maximum traction (not drift ) and I must say I give it the big thumbs up. Definately getting more traction on takeoff and cornering (rear end seems much stiffer) which is all good when you've got 0.8bar running through the turbo (the back end was getting too tail happy). So if its dry on sunday and cool I'll be down there trying to get into the high 13's.
