Wreckhead your a moron, openly flaunting that you will change plates and run a non andra approved cage, to get around the safety ban, in a forum which an andra official moderates?

With street slicks and any more power the gearbox will last one meet max, but hey as long as your mate drives it and gets YOUR time who cares.

I wish there wasn't safety bans, would make natural selections job a lot easier.

No mate, you're the moron. Let me give you a flash back to 12 months ago when I was told the following:

Nitrous and the standard turbo won't go together and it'll last 'one meet max'. You keep racing your car like that and it'll last 'one meet max'. Burnouts like that will break your gearbox/diff/motor/arse etc and it'll last 'one meet max'.

Whilst I agree that that it's a farking bad idea to change plates and race again without UDL and ANDRA approved cage, I think you're over-stepping the mark a bit by saying that his box will break. Also, anyone wishing natural selection takes it's course by killing other forum members at the track has no place on this forum discussing anything. If you think I'm joking, run that past PranK and see what he thinks about it. I could save you the time though.....re-read the above paragraph.

Jeez!

Everything always has to come back to you right? Its gotta be about you?

"I wish there wasn't safety bans, would make natural selections job a lot easier."

That is my quote, i dont see anything about killing or anything, it was tongue in cheek at best.

You might want to get over yourself.

Don't lose sight of the fact that the car ran hard into the tens. That's really good. Congratulations for that feat; it's not easy to do.

This is a drag racing subforum. Therefore people who come here like drag racing. Running a ten in a street car is a big deal. Let's give credit where it's due.

some people just dont realise the dedication and money which is spent to get where you want, but its ok, rb20wagon runs 9s i think. as for me being a moron, i think you should stop breathing in the wind as i think your bad breath has finally got to your head.

Emre: That's with the assistance of nitrous, which lowers 60 foot times dramatically, even with a so-so launch.

Well... I can't get my head around that one.

60 foot times are directly related to the level of traction you have. How does nitrous reduce your 60 foot times into 1.59 on 18 inch semi-comps...? And this bloke is complaining about the lack of traction !

Im not going to reply any more after this, because its just a shitfight, so ill make it brief

If you ran a 9 and tried to brake / evade saftey regulations, you would still be a moron. I havent run a 9, my best is a 12.55 @ 113 in my car, with about 290 rwhp.

If you saw the Drag combat special on tv on perth, it was the car that came second to Got Boost. How fast your car is or what you have or havent done to it has nothing to do with the saftey regulations which was my original post.

shuuurrrruppppp already, you and your regulations, im sick of your complaining.

why dont you mind your own business and if im going to break the rules, well thats good for me, why do you give a f*ck if i do or not, people break rules every day, for example speeding, burnouts, racing, shit like that, at least im in a enviroment where i can only do damage to myself, see ya

WERD Emre the 60ft time is nothing less then awesome' date=' I compared it with the HPI list and its 3rd best in that class and thats against some pretty fierce competition so with some decent drag radials it will be very interesting to see what it will do[/QUOte/']

1 month to go

Lack of traction with a 1.59 60 footer? Right... whatever :( I guess some people just like to make excuses no matter how good a time they run...

"Oh bro.. That was on low boost..."

"Wait till I turn on my solid fuel rocket engine!!"

I think that traction issues would be minimal with a 1.59 60 footer. Anyway, as you know, even with all 4 wheels spinning on a GTR launch, it's still scrambling forward at a great rate of knots, so the extra torque from the nitrous launch would only aid this :(

merli if you were there you would know, if you wernt there dont talk please, watch the video.

people with slow cars always try to pull the fast cars down with them tomake thmselves fell beter. not happy jan

I did watch the video... I saw no "traction issues" with the launch :confused:

and I agree that people with slow cars always try and pull the faster people down... That applies to all aspects of life as well. But I'm not trying to pull anyone down, so I'm not sure what you're getting at?

Faaarrk... this sounds like a biyatches club!

All I can say is, well done for the time! I couldn't care who was driving, it's all about the car right? And wreckhead if you wanna risk running again and not complying with the regulations, well that's up to you... if you're happy to take that risk, and the officials practice the regulations.

Anyway, I wanted to ask yo'll about what Merli mentioned running NOS off the line?? How is this possible? Is it a small shot eg; 30hp?

And you might want to get a farking clue, pal. Tongue in cheek or not it is in incredibly poor taste and i'd prefer you just shut the hell up in future.

Errr... as soon as you nail it off the line, the nitrous kicks in. Remember that nitrous gives you the same amount of power/torque @ 4000rpm as it does at 8000rpm so no waiting for turbos to spool before the power's there.

    • That's the thing. Cam is smaller than before.. though the old cam was +6 degrees advanced. We're talking huge changes here, the narrowbands want to trim out 20% of fuel and pull the (wideband) idle to like 16.0 AFR or such. One side is a little more trimmy than the other. Think along the lines of ~20% to ~15-18%. Unfortunately my scouring of the internet hasn't really found anyone with this issue. People either just disable NB's or have them wildly different, where one is -20% and the other is +20 or 0 (i.e a sensor is just dead/wiring is just busted). Turning them off and relying on the base map only results in the wideband reporting at about 14.0 with the Varex closed. It'd be a little leaner (closer to 14.7ish) with the Varex open. I know I can just change the switch points so that the narrowbands agree with the wideband, but it's still odd. Both of them are reading voltage, it's just that they're reading quite high mv, in the ~800 region. It's just odd. This was with the IAT fudged to report it was about ~22 degrees which is my guesstimation of the temperature in the room. I have an OEM sensor ready to try tonight, which is slow and crap - but .. worked last time I used it. Sadly I am aware that idle tuning with the big TB is going to be a PITA and I look 'forward' to many hours spent stalling or stumbling idle or delving into drivability things.
    • The GTR strut brace clears the new manifold.. by about 0.5mm. So this means I need to buy an OEM GTT Strut brace (again), which will clear the new manifold, but not the bonnet vents. I guess I can sell the GTR Strut brace with the bonnet with the vents as a package deal as someone will need this one day. So my choices are vented bonnet but no strut brace, or GTR Bonnet with OEM brace (which I have to buy) but is bright red instead of the same colour as the rest of the car, which means the entire front end of the car will just be red until it goes back to paint jail. In other news the engine starts and doesn't leak. Why both O2 narrowband sensors think the tune is rich AF I do not know. The idle is also pretty shitty and my expensive IAT sensor from the USA is dead. The car sounds awful. But I assume or at least hope this is due to the many exhaust leaks, and the concrete garage it is in, sitting there with 0 intake bolted to it, and no bonnet or panels or anything to stop the induction/intake sound which is about 200db.
    • C'mon! At least come kicking and screaming into the 2000s. BA XR8 bulge.
    • No such thing as E30 in Sydney servos As stated above, flex fuel is your only viable,  and "safe" option I believe
