With wheelspin was quickest way...Anyhting less was bogged down and took to long to get boost. As i said that was my best time for the day. I tried lots of different techniques.

You dont see top fuel drivers spinning their wheels through gears and they get pretty good times.

Have you seen how big and sticky their tyres are? And suspesion set up to go straight. They are race cars, i drive mine around corners occasionally.

Saying that "Yer she was spinning into 4th" may sound like your car is uber powerful etc... but it doesnt help your et's.

Did not say this. Said if i could get power down without wheelspin i may get 12's.

I stand corrected.

Can you use these tyres on the road then?

If so, how much are they and what are they like for road use?

I have to admit a very bad thing.....

I got completly smashed the other day by a FORD......

It was an old XY falcon with a 351 GT motor and a massive blower hanging out the bonnet, but he was giving me **** and i thought ill go him but it got me by over 4 car lengths in 400 metres.....

It looked like a big wanker mobile, but it had some serious fuel swallowing ability's... LOL

Yes those old ford do haul arse.

There is one getting around that has wide arse wheels, lowered very slightly with a hornet type bonnet scoop and a nice blue.

It looks and sounds very very tame.

I suspect that he has it supercharged or something as it is to quick for how smooth it idles.

i.e 265 at least on the rear it can light then up no worries from first through second then it starts to get a little hary as the arse end starts to flick around a bit to much. Well when I saw it anyway.

He doesn't stall it up at the lights just guns it as it wheel spins anyway.

When i was making 152rwkw he ate me and spat me out by around 3 car lengths at 100km/h.

    • Nope, still smaller rear, put on the 4inch exhaust and picked up power everywhere, ended up just shy of 800rwhp.   Didn't seem to be hitting any walls either, so perhaps could have pushed for more but all maybes and the fish that got away etc etc. 
    • Races cars don't care for VIN either...
    • This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.
    • Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛  
    • Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it
