montie Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 I really expected a lot more cars to come & run (especially more Rexs). I thought we'd get there late.....but. We just got there 5 mins before they opened up. That white R33 sure was nutz. I think he had the quickest time (while we were there). Also that white 300z was sure blowing alot of smoke & sparks out his pipes. And the white rex was showing alot of promise but probably didn't deliver wot I expected from it. Here's some pixs. Next time I will bring my R33 & try and get my friend to bring his Rex.

joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 interesting day... traction was just a complete fail.... only managed a 12.91 @119.1 due to 6/8 coilovers and second gear just completely frying every singe run! not really sure what he attraction is with drag racing, but meh.... though i'd give it a try lol wouldn't mind going back with the car actually set up for it one day and trying to dip into the 11's... just for the hell of it...

ssxRicho Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 nice to see the weather held up. rained all day at pi so what was the rexy to skyline ratio?

montie Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I think the ratio there was close to 50 / 50. But on the track it seemed like that was more skylines there. Most off the Rexs where in the parking bays.

rom-vg30dett Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I was also pretty happy with my time. I think my best run was a 12.3 @ 125mph with a pathetic 1.9 sec 60 footer. Thanks to all the organisers for a good day.

NUTWGN Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 What a great day! We were the last to leave due to loading up etc, but from what we heard people saying they were happy with the amount of runs they were getting and that the weather held out. For those who left early, you missed an AWESOME head to head battle between the white rexy and Luke's white NUTR33 skyline, Luke said he could see him out of the corner of his eye preety much the whole way down the strip! The rexy won by 0.2 of a second or something ridiculous like that! Then they raced again, and the rexy broke something (He thought possibly in the diff) and ended up doing a 19 second pass, but it was good to catch up with him at the end of the day and see he was still smiling, even with broken bits! I think someone said they filmed it so hopefully it will be up here soon. We learnt an important lesson about tyres, they are everything at the drags! Thanks to organisers and those who helped on the day Im in the process of uploading a few vids and pics so when I get the chance Ill post the links here.

TTCorona Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Hey guys Glad that everyone enjoyed the day after the mornings problems. Even though it was a late start it was still better to get everyone out there late than not at all... Any ways here a few of my pics There's a heap more here too http://picasaweb.google.com/mathew.cross/S...feat=directlink Wonder who appeared out of this smoke cloud? Maybe it was the Drag Day Mafia Cheers Crossy Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320619-sau-vs-wrx-club-drag-day-heathcote-sat-3-july/page/10/#findComment-5327533 Share on other sites More sharing options...
morerevsm3 Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I had a great day, thanks to the organisers, much appreciated. some VHT on the track would have been nice, only managed a [email protected] out of the 180,000k old 3 litre na car Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320619-sau-vs-wrx-club-drag-day-heathcote-sat-3-july/page/10/#findComment-5327567 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekin Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 haha great day! Was quite a small turnout, but meant plenty of runs! I managed to get a total of 18 runs in. That would easily be 4 Calder Friday Nights! Could have got more but started to feel sorry for the car haha Was either badly axle tramping it or bogging it through 1st/2nd gear. Need moar practice Thanks sauvic/wrx club for organising the day.

NutR33 Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Thanks for all the comments guys. I had a great day hopeing to brake into the 11s and i ran a [email protected] straight off the trailer without a great launch. With a bit more heat into the tyres and a few more revs off the line i pulled a 1.61 60ft to run a personal best of 11.24 @123.93mph. The M/T ET Drag tyres were awesome as i bolted up my street tyres and ran a 13.37sec later in the day. The highlight of the whole day though was the run with the rex late in the day. He managed to take a holeshot win with his 11.45 compared to my 11.41. Hopefully there will be some good vids come out of the day soon.
