Who On Sau Is The Fastest...?

[R31Nismoid]

Ok as part of the ARC Forum Battle - SAU is looking for represenatives to take out the DRAG section.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/381974-arc-car-forum-battle-sau-represent-2012/

RESTRICTIONS:

Car must run DOT approved Radials

SUPP REGS (partial):

http://forumbattle.com.au/drag/

http://forumbattle.com.au/regulations/

ENTRY LIMIT:

4 cars from SAU.

The regs IMO cannot be complete as there is a lot still missing. So at present I'm assuming at this stage it means DOT approved radials, given you could legally use them on the street.

COSTS:

SAU will cover 50% of the entry fee - so $75 only

I'm sure there are some that could run a solid 9.XX pass on DOT approved radials and bring home the trophy for SAU

Who out there fits the bill? Do you know someone that is a SAU User, but doesn't browse SAU every day?

Post up users, cars whatever - need to know and start organising like... Yesterday!

*cough.

Godzilla Motorsport

Edit - ash if they're quicker than a 10.99 do they need to be andra tagged and caged etc?

[R31Nismoid]

Normal rules will apply as per the Regs.

So I'm assuming yes at this point. But I'm also assuming we will get 2 reps that will be in the 9s... So its very much going to apply and these guys will already comply so it won't be a major problem.

Just thinking andra cage + rego + Victoria

The rego thing is a bit shite

Edit- I do hear BU5TER is back though with a new owner

[R31Nismoid]

Well it says Rego – Not which state.

That’s what sucks about having regs that basically say “free for all”. VIC has ridiculous rules where NSW/QLD do not and can get away with a lot more.

Was chatting to a mate just then, I can see a lot of protests being lodged with the only major regulation being “owner driver & street rego”…

That are going to be out and out race-cars coming along quite easily, as it is clearly within the rules.

At the end of the day all that matters is the rules, meet them and that's all you need to do.

No more, no less.

So - Who meets the rules and runs 9s?

[zebra]

That's was what I was going to say. Street legal and a race car with plates are very different.

There are always protests when it come to street car super star events etc which is unfortunate as I love street legal drag cars that are stupid quick.

I do know of a Torana that runs low 8s that will prob turn up and is 100% legal and registered from sydney No idea what forum it will represent though

What about Jangles who now has TWOOGLE...? Or one of the auto boys.

Maybe Julian (KIL_351) he has a pretty wild 32GTR with 1000+hp

Superjet760...?

[jangles]

Surely superjet and RBE85 are well up there, superjet 8.9?? And RBE85 well, that's only a run away

[N1GTR]

Superjet!

[zebra]

^^^ +1

Should be tech inspected by now too I'd imagine, So all legal to keep running 8's!

[kil-351]

im not caged or teched but im happy to go out on radials with my gtr... still a stock 5 spd at the moment but the T400 shouldnt be too far away... (been saying this since may but apparently everything is ready to go)

mine makes around 1050 at the wheels at the moment but if i race it ill prob throw another 5 pounds in it.

if not, im ready to hire out WSID for a private day and do some testing if anyone is keen shoot me a message.

Problem would be Calder Park rules which you would run under.

Cars running quicker than 10.99 seconds, as aforementioned details above and the following:

* Minimum 4 point roll cage,
* Minimum 4 point Safety Harness,
* Longer wheels studs protruding beyond the face of the rim by 1 diameter of the wheel stud.
* Open Headers permitted, but are not to point down toward the track
* NOS permitted, however, if fitted inside the vehicle, the bottle must be fitted with a vent tube from the appropriate OEM or equivalent of the bottle.
* Engine Oil Filter Clamp required on spin off type filters. NOTE: System 1 and Oberg type filter designs are exempt.
* Drive Shaft Loop

Cars running quicker than 9.99 seconds, as aforementioned details above and the following:

* Minimum 6 point roll cage,
* Minimum 5 point Safety Harness,
* Personal Safety Equipment per requirements of the current ANDRA Rule Book required. This includes gloves, fire proof suit, SFI approved Helmet, Neck Brace, etc.
* Vehicles running faster than 140 mph require a parachute.
* Those who wish to enter competition class must have a roll cage or else they must race as a street car.

[R31Nismoid]

And Calder are SUPER anal about it too. There is a guy @ the end of the strip. Looks @ the times.

You run faster than the time vs gear - you get sent home (street meets). So given that you might not even get ONTO the track @ such an event like this

[R33 Sleeper]

The Willal RH9 32gtr?

[NXTIME]

[RH9GTR](nsw) = "Superjet760" & [RBE85] (qld) = "NUR33".

/thread

[blk180]

Haha street rego, Rotor boys and 2J boys have some scary cars with rego

As long as this is not there we may have a chance

[zebra]

or this

[R31Nismoid]

What does that have to do with SAU's fastest user, on DOT approved radials?

[zebra]

what they will more than likely be up agaisnt

[R31Nismoid]

Again - On DOT Approved Radials.

Both those cars are tubbed on slicks
