hey guys what a awesome day well done to everyone to all you guys I know i had a ball and said at the begining of the day id be stoked to get anywhere in the 13's but to get to a 13.444 now im just hanging out for that 12 second pass LOL (The bug has got me).

Just one question who is Matt???????

Scott..

good work guys, i am keen to get out to WSID now... but an injector started leaking today so I thats the 4th problem in a week, cant wait to get out there.

Chris, flat 12 is so awesome!

Adrian, consistency!

B-man, you got an 11 coming your way, she will come.

R33vit, a 12 is nice what power do you have?

It's good to see all these nice RB's hitting the streets after everyone has put the hard yard's in, it seems the last few weeks they have really been coming together!

Once Brett and Merli get out there SAU is definately going to be a huge force....

BTW, anyone got a spare skyline badge for me? :)

BF GOODRICH Drag Combat brought to you by BF GOODRICH where BF GOODRICH gave away $1000 of BF GOODRICH tyres and Gary Meyers killed a couple of sets of BF GOODRICH tyres given to him by his sponsor BF GOODRICH was pretty crappy in my opinion. Great times, great cars, but boy did [cabin]'s organisation stink again. Massive breaks, the commentators had no idea what was going on, and so on. It was very dissapointing especially compared with other great events that have been on at WSID so far. [cabin] needs to sit down and have a good think before the next event.

Reading this thread makes me miss Sydney... well done on the times guys!

When does Drag Combat come to Vic, some healthy NSW v Vic competition would be fun, and i can put a few ppl up for the weekend... in Brunswick East.

Was the management of the event better then the first round, more cars then before????

I kept falling asleep because of the breaks, the chaos over the eliminations ladder, the timing gear breaking down, and the delays which put the programme ~2 hours behind schedule kinda made it crappy.

But a strong SAU contingent made the day great. Great meeting new people from the forums, and then (cause we are all in the same class) racing against them was tops - the people made the event. Brett's some sort of SAU Drag mascot - was there to lend a big hand, storage and tools facility all in one.

Breaking my drag racing hymen was kinda funny too, I was expecting to be all nervous with the crowd + having no idea but it was actually very relaxing. I only got aggitated from not being able to do a burnout (the advice of "touch the breaks" left me stalling the car, have decent pads in the back for track work) and launching pretty damn sad. Heh the aggression paid off, with me flatchanging off the revlimiter + eventually damaging the shifter. Highly recommend doing it again, i think an SAU streetmeet would crap all over the DC event.

We call him "Bobbo". He ended up with my tools, I have Stacey's pressure guage, Scott has my torch and someone ate my Mars Bar.... wait.....that was me.... :)

And he's MY pit bitch so back off or i'll scratch ya eyes out! :)

    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
    • appreciated it thanks   There are threads on the adaptor. I rear re anodising but didn’t know it will reduce strength   re mating services needing to be flat/ not painted, why would that be? I am devastated as car been off for a year, fixed power steering then installed bm57 master cylinder and just before driving it this came up. So annoyed   worried and afraid to drive it, no fun caliper coming off
