anyone got a better answer?

its been a while (12 months) since i've looked into the drag scene so i'm behind on whether or not the penrith strip was finished or if the only 1/4 mile was still at EC.

i'm assuming from the smart arsed-ness of the answer that the penrith track is up & running

It's not in Penrith...

WSID (Western Sydney International Dragway) is located directly opposite/right nextdoor to Eastern Creek Raceway.

Hope to see you there :)

I thought it was being held at Penrith Panthers? 1/4 Mile drag to Krispy Kreme???
LOL you'd have to do about 8 laps for it to be 1/4 Mile.

I didn't realise it was on tomorrow. I'll be there... i'll give Nick or Merli or someone a call when I get there to see where all you skankz0rs are sitting. At the SummerNationals I sat on the East side right inline with the starting tree/lights on the top level up against the fence.

I found this to be a great spot because it wasn't packed with people, it was nice and close, you could see the entire track and their was about 5 food stands directly behind me :):(:P

shyte! thats how long i've been out of the loop...

i didn't even realise it was at The Creek. even better - 15km extra i dont have to travel. i have some vague recollection from a while ago of plans to build a strip at penrith.. the incessant intoxication must be finally affecting my memory

spose i'll should check out the site

cheers

Merli - I'll see you at the space station at 8:00 - I haven't heard from PranK.

Sorry guys - we are organising two meetups in the one thread - hope you don't get confused.

Summary:

Compeditors: Meet at 8:00 am at space station

Spectators: Meet at 6C @ 9:30

Cheers.

$30? Do they think I'm Bill Gates??

What numbers are expected to be meeting at P6? I'm eager to come, but dont know anyone....

And you never will if you don't put your balls on the line and just come and meet us :P

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
