Plex tomorrow (4th)

[Guest Rhino]

I have got a medical and fitness evaluation for a job tomorrow arvo hence I can make work Wed. night:rolleyes: (thats what I'm telling work anyway)

So depending on how knackered I am and whether I can be bothered (I have more physical testing on Thursday so I might need to catch up on sleep) on the night I might head on down to the Plex.

Is anyone else planning on goin?

If so theres a 50/50 chance I'll be down there fangin the R, come up for a chat, 'cause unfortunately haven't been in the loop since the last wed. night drags I organised ages ago.

Cheers,

Ryan.

I am planning on going just for a looksee, before my debut the week after. I'll keep an eye out for your car and try and get some tips off you.

See'ya:burnout:

[Guest Rhino]

I wouldn't be asking for tips off me

I'm a follower of the "Buy a GTR and rev it till 7 or so, load up the drivetrain then jump off the clutch and change gears as fast as you can until you hit the line"

Not very scientific, difficult or perhaps even intelligent but it works for me, but then again I still haven't cracked a 12:D

[GTS-t VSPEC]

A 12 would be impressive, but yes seeing as if I launch from 4000rpm I get wheelspin, then maybe just watching you could be a better idea.

[Hicks]

I'm gonna head down. Just had the car tuned up so with any luck i'll pull a high 13.

Gtst vspec, you should head down to race. Your doin what I did, the whole time your watching your wishing you were raceing.

Why do you need to watch first??

The only reason I did is cause I had no helmet.

I'll save ya some time, holdens pull 13's-14's, most skylines pull 14's, some do 13's, gtr's do 12's, wrx's pull 14's, mazdas do 11's-14's.

And fords, ha ha, fords.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Thanks for the tip Hicks,

I could probably get a helmet by tommorow but I'm working till about 7:30, so I didn't want to give it a half hearted effort. The following Wednesday I will be prepared.

Hope to see you down there though.

See'ya:burnout:

I _may_ drop by....

depends who else is going ? anyone else going down for a looksee ?

[jmp]

I am thinking of heading down, although I don't own a line or race down there

Although I am looking for a GTiR through Risbey

[R34]

I might go down for a looksee as well

[PSIKO]

I'm not going to take mine down since it will be untuned running the least amount of boost possible for a while...may go for a lil look though

[adam 32]

me, macka and shannon are all racing. come on u girls! race!

[Guest Rhino]

Sorry guys, just got home and I need sleep and food so some time in the near future.

[Gradenko]

Anyone back yet? Post your times!

[jmp]

I went down and saw a few runs from Hicks, Macka and adam32 ( I think

By the looks of it Hicks got into high 13's one run at 13.8 .. I think and the rest were low/mid 14's.

Macka had some sweet runs with a nice 13.06 and 13.07 and some 15.something run..

**** remember anymore

There was a sick speedworks 200sx but dropped a bit of white smoke on it's last run (blown turbo?).

Also saw a GTiR up against a S13 which was beating it up until half track when it basically slowed to a crawl to never come out again

Was a pretty good night with a all-holden burnout pad at the end.

No soarers this week, suprise suprise.

That's my recap

[rev210]

Well It seems Macka is breathing down the necks of the GTR boys and girls now with flat 13's. Thats where I'd like to be next time round. Might be a bit harder for me without that Mack-tastic power

A little birdy told me the track was 'treated' reasonably tonight, something I think they should do more of since more street cars are turning up to race.

Hicks, did you get that 13.8 you were chasing?

Adam32 how did you go with the boost over 8psi?

[adam 32]

Adam32 how did you go with the boost over 8psi?

no comment. somethings broken, and if it costs more than $1000 im throwin in the towel and starting a new project

im going outside to kick my car once more before i go to bed

[JH32]

damn

what happened?

[Hicks]

Go to barry.

You know you want to.

[Gradenko]

Well done everyone, seem's like (almost) everyone came back happy.

Hicks, what was your 60' like? Did you end up running on standard rear rims?

Macka, what was your terminal speed like? Must have been pretty good with a 12.98 1/4 and only a 2.25 60'.

adam 32, sorry to hear... give us details once you recover.

[adam 32]

as far as i can tell...

on my first run with soft suspension, as i changed into 2nd the centre muffler (which is very low to the ground) bounced up and smashed into the diff. there is now a considerable oil leak and im assuming power wasnt being transferred through the diff and thus the shitty time of 14.4
