NDSOC Drag Day

[R31Nismoid]

Thanks to everyone that came out in the true spirit and gave thier cars a flogging.

Hats off the the NDSOC boys & girls as they put on an wonderful day.

Brilliantly organised and some of the GTR's there... two words

****ing Amazing

In total awe of these guys, and some of them Zed's, they go arite indeed, sneaky little packages.

Again, thanks to everyone... even though we didnt organise it, NDSOC deserve a pat on the back.

Some highlights

Kier's "drag car" - 8.7 or 8.6 (i think) @ around 160mph or maybe 150mph... i cant remember.

Kier's "street car" - 9.5 or 9.6, that car was amazing, not using slicks... didnt get close enough to see what tyres though.

AVO had a car form the ACT there, i thinkiit busted a 9.

Overall a septacular to watch, throughly enjoyed it

We'll have a drag day later this year of our own

Cheers - ash

Was a good day enjoyed myself amensly good to see a variety of Nissan cars running. The park was full. Good work by NDSOC just need to work some gremlins out of my car Keirs car was great to see doing 8.7 and his brother going into the 9,s.

Yeah, standing next to it while it ( the 8sec car ) riped the burnt out was ****ing awsome. Amost kill my chest though , Ash ripped burn out in true Japanese style. Sideway burnt out pass the chrismas tree.

I and Letmedrive was suprise to find out our SthEast meet up has got more cars turn up than the Main one. Sorry guys i missed the turn into Hume sad enough i called Troy( YLWGTR) to ask him how to get back to Hume again lol and as always, Troy is there when help is needed.

I pretty much forgot everyone names ( getting old, sorry ) but call out to the guy in the silver stock R33 that were in front of me when we started to do bracket qualify, you might need new diff oil as i was lining behind you when u were doing the pre-run burnt out, there was only one wheel spining.

Again, it was a good day. Dry, cold perfect if my clutch wasn't slipping i might dip it into the low 12 or even flat i hope.

awesome day!!

I got it down to consistent 13.4s at 106 mph with the car grabbing traction pretty well. 2.1 second 60 fts. I ran low boost (10-11 psi) all day cos i was scared of Detontation, so thats why the lowish terminal speed = I felt that I could have given it a MUCH harder launch cos my tyres - Potenza 8000s 265s were gripping so hard i was too chicken to give it more power

Enjoyable day, was Behind keir when he ran his 8.7 PB and I congratulated him on the way back!!

Spewing my mate sacked driving out today - would have been great to see it!

Well done to all those who participated

[BU5TER]

Did Leewah race?

[R31Nismoid]

nope

[Roy]

So, what times did we all run? Hopefully plenty of PBs

[thebadguy]

G'day Guys,

Glad to hear you all had a great day........ that's what it's all about isn't it?

Keir Wilson's cars were just awesome to watch but I was really impressed by the overall quality of pretty much all the cars that lined up. (that said, some did run some ordinary times too.... hehe)

The turn out was awesome ........

On behalf of the NDSOC I just want to thank all the SAU guys (and girls?) that made the drive out to Heathcote. It's the cars and people that line up that make the event.

Ash - was great to meet you mate. Will hopefully catch up with you again somewhere down the track.

Cheeers,

Raul Mas

NDSOC Membership Secretary.

What times did you manage to get down Ash? What about some other SAU boys...

[Al]

BIG THANKS! to NDSOC for inviting our club for this event, was truely a great day and very well organised. The weather cleared out nicely and remained very cold, great for our turbo engines.

Very disappointed at the turn out at Ford carpark (Only Ash and myself), but very happy to see a lot of Skylines make the drive up to Heathcote.

I was carrying my camera all day but did not take one pic . Too lasy and cold to take my hands out my pockets and line up a shot .

I beleive Ash's best time, for the day, was his first run; 12.1. We were all hoping he was going to dip into the 11's but his clutch decided not to co-operate and threw in the towel. I truely think his car has the potential to run a 11sec pass.

Well dine guys/girls and see you all at the next event.

TURNED OUT TO BE A GREAT DAY, THANKS TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO HELPED ORGANISE IT!

I managed a [email protected] and a 60ft of 2.1 with a Front pipe back exhaust (no dump), POD, 12psi, GTR front mount and HANKOOK K104's 265/35/18 tyres.

Is this a good time for my mods? or should i be going a bit better. Ive noticed that some people with a worse 60' time than mine got into the 13's.

Oh and this might be a stupid question but does the timer start when the lights go green or when u take off? This is in test and tune BTW

Any help would be appreciated

[R31Nismoid]

I'll be around Raul

I'll try beat your hat with one of my interesting ones

and yeah, i ran a 12.1 @ 111mph first run, then i let the tyres down for more traction... which actually worked against me and the best i could do was a 12.5 rest of the day.

I'll get there eentually, the car is interesting to launch

[Leigh]

so wheres all the pictures?

[buzzin]

dam i forgot all about it , and i only live 50k's away :pissed:

so how did everyone go?

got any pics?

My clutch never got sorted on time *sniff* I wouldve been there...

Starionturbo what tyres did you end up using?

HKS-R33, that time is good for 97mph, but I would think that 97mph is a little low for your mods...

[HKS-R33]

Hey riggaP, what could be some possible causes of a low mph. I'm kinda suspecting that my boost may not have been getting to 12psi in higher gears. Could this be the problem?

[thebadguy]

Guys - pics should be up on www.ndsoc.com.au very soon.

Unfortunately, I didn't get to run my car as I was working the club stand for most of the day.

Ash - I welcome your hat challenge buddy...... :evil:
