remeber last year when i first join in here, we have a wonderful Drag day with RPM.

plenty of chance to run, able to chat with other members and check out their car.

still remeber timmy did over 20 run and run a very good time.

there is plenty of drift day now but no drag day at all.

the drag night in AIR is okay but i hate the wait and lack of chances to relax.

anyone interest at the idea?

are you talking a private occassion here. if so i would be interested. although i havent dragged before at air im sure my jitters and butterflies wouldnt be as bad as if it was a public meeting in front of spectators. also wouldnt mind knowing how fast the 180 actually is.

I got 14 runs in last Wednesday night, including a break in the middle and went home early. Was a great night, except the start line was too slippery and I found out the other day I was down 4psi (due to a cracked silicon hose). Next time Gadget - next time .....

The last one was awesome. Small crowd, close up views and nice relaxed atmos.

Another one would be wicked... I reckon I could even convince Jaffa to run the lumpy machine :wave:

Bloody hell, if he doesn't, ill nick it for the day haha :wave:

Perhaps a combined day with the LS1 lads? Bit of 4 v 6 v 8 rivalry :wave:

haha, yeah was a top day:)  yeah ill be in for the next one. can ring AIR and organise it, but its not cheap. About $4000 for the track hire, so you need a good turn out and money up front

same as last time, around 50 cars, $80 each.

I was thinking Skyline Aust, LS1, Nissan Silvia, Club Psi and the GSR/EVO

a mix of 4,6,8 :/

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
