The smack-talk drag day thread

2Rismo is a poof with a girly coloured car and a small weener of a turbo

[Boosted Zed]

Just received a call from the tech inspector who said he will check my car at the track 8 to 9am so all go. Also tinkered on the dyno with cam gears and more yesterday and now makes 384rwkw 23psi and 200rwkw at 3400rpm. Car weighs a bit over 1400kg estimated and has 4.4 ratio diff and running 305 wide slicks, circuit racing type so not best and will be the handicap.

Get it out of the hole okay and you're a shoe-in for 11's, Johnny! Underestimate straightlining and you're a shoe-in for 14's !!

384 is nice and all but for me the best bit is the 200kw a 3400rpm, that is some serious low down power... Nice work John.

Wow with that amount of power surely you'd be able to make a bold statement or two? That's way more power than any of us are making, and a better ratio than the 4.11's the 'Lines are using.

I'm up for a grudge match in my humble little standard GTS, I'll go as far to say 2 out of 3 races I'll have ya!

[FRISKI]

just out of curiousity what is the average power???

/me second goose

[BU5TER]

Fitty

[Duncan]

If it rains and the event is cancelled we'll be given the next available Saturday wsid has but it wont rain

fcuk you drag boyz are soft, everyone knows the track is most fun when it is wet!

FFS Pete used to do rain dances before track days!

WTF is wrong with you people?

[BU5TER]

hahaha soft thats code for I fear the straight line as I've got nuthin

[Duncan]

meh the biggest thing to fear at the drags is getting bored and falling asleep before the 14 seconds are over

[B-Man]

I am a bloody goose and the only person who mentioned the date!!!

Grrr!!!

just out of curiousity what is the average power for those who are attending tomorrow's event???

Ummm no.................

[BU5TER]

ok you were the first goose hahaha

[BU5TER]

stuff it hahaha if anyones thinking of coming to watch, race, run nude, cheer or make love to me they wont be allowed in unless they're racing or pit crew of someone thats racing and on the list that will be at the gate ie not on list no entry as they're allowing no spectators

[Duncan]

and BTW lets be clear the bretts not being the bastard here, he has been given *very* clear instructions from the track if we can make this day a success we may be allowed to have more club members along this time

[Morgs]

Well, all incidents aside that was a bloody awesome day.

I can't wait for the next one.... a million thanks to Brett the Buster the man for organising it.

How'd the results go?

I only ran twice, 12.9 sec and 12.5 sec, didnt get the chance to strip the car out or even put the boost up before trouble struck. Also drove the red RX7 to 13.1 sec

[red900ss]

Well, all incidents aside that was a bloody awesome day.

...

Do tell Morgs:uh-huh:

oh and what do those times equate to on the track? is that like doing a sub 2.00 lap at the creek? :confused:

[Morgs]

Well this was the first time I've dressed in drag and you know I've been on the right track before, excuse the pun Dino. At the moment the mighty stock green machine is awaiting diagnosis so watch this space could be major could be minor but I never like to take a chance on these things.

[GTR-80Y]

Great day, looks like u made it home ok....did u ride with the towie??? Was he hot? lol

[Boosted Zed]

I went, I had fun smacking all these Skylines. Did not even think of falling asleep it was actually fun. Not as much as 2rismo though he was on fire. First time for me. Shot my mouth off, educated experienced to some extent might add.saying " Should do a 11 sec " Missed first run did a 12.18 wheel spinning all the way. Later did a 11.56 130mph. They say this is fast but I don't know. I think 10 seconds is where it is at. It was faster than all the Skylines though or should I not mention this, he he.

Word is next big show down is Wed night drags 10th Nov. Going to be a big Zed turnout so plenty of contenders. Lets do a Zed Skyline Challenge this night? Yes I will be there with the slot car with a few more tweaks. Maybe get some of the big guns out. Any GTR's that beat me can turn off there front wheel drive and we party and see. No not fair, OK we run anyway.

[GTR-80Y]

Haha good to see u enjoyed it. The car looked a bit of a handful on ur first run, very sideways.
