mona's secret is simple.....

she was telling "i go on the second yellow" so i thought id give it a whirl, 2 time, 2 reds!!!

she aint fast she just delayed!

lol

just a note, one time i went on red, the r/t was -.001

when im competing i use the third yellow...just make sure you see it and dont predict it....cut great lights and have not seen a red yet (touching wood as i type)

0.003 is awesome. Well done Mona.

silver, that is a hair away from the perfect reaction time.

There is a guy that attends every Wednesday night and more often than not has has won some money from being amongst the top 3 RT's for the night. Not bad for a little stripped out 1200 datto with SR20 Turbo that runs 11.8's. He's won around $1500 from it, which is half what the car cost him. ;)

What format is it in?

They usually can be plugged into XP and downloaded directly. Otherwise you will need the appropriate software installed first.

"Girls are weak...chuck em in th......."

What'd I miss?  Stace?  Mona?

Anyway...

The two WOMEN who raced at the drag day on Sunday have taken well over $5500.00 in prizemoney between them at drag racing events over the last 18 months and that deserves restec-p of the highest order. ;)

They are two of the most well-seasoned drag racers that SAU has the honour of calling members and should be regarded as such.

I don't think people give them enough credit - in particular regard to the skills they have developed.

For instance, Mona.  How the HELL do you cut sub .020 lights every other time?!?!  It's got me beaten. :)

Everyone have a good hard look at who the REAL racers are on this forum and in this club and then, if you're nice about it, draw from their experience.  I'd like to.

Adrian

hehehe..i think i can only claim about 0.000001% of that prize money :( thanks for the kind words adrian!! this is the kind of support i was expecting! :)

oops!! my secrets out!!! hehe ;) i actually thought it was standard practice to start launching before the green light! i launch on the third yellow light :P

silv man!!! if you can find anyone that launches on the green and gets a 0.000 reaction time, i'll be impressed!!! i honestly don't think its possible?! :confused: it could very well be! me.. by the time i stomp on the accellerator and drop the clutch, the lights usually green!! i'm just laggy, so it works for me!!! lol!! :P

thanks nxtime :) was embarrassing cause they did a whole presso thing in front of everyone to present the money! and i swear that datto guy someone was talking about took first prize that night with 0.000 reaction time! woah!!! :D

    • Ok another question. I have everything back in the car I have a very Uneven part of my driveway and one wheel is nearly touching the ground. Only the one barely hitting the ground is spinning. There are no weird noises when driving. Jacking the car up and turning one wheel, the other does not spin and same if I turn the wheel on the other side. But when I put the car in gear and drive, (in the air) both wheels spin. Is all of this normal?
    • None of the above. G30 660. Call it done. Or, BW EFR, or one of the other similar modern options. In the BWs we're talking EFR 7670 with the twinscroll turbine housing. Sorta good for 650HP at the flywheel, which should be more than enough. Broadly speaking it's equivalent to the G30 660. None of this is cheap like the OP's original options, though. The PSR3576 is also a bit larger than the new power target would suggest using. The ATR43SS3 was always a smaller choice than the PSR. 600 fly vs 750 fly. So they weren't ever comparable options. I would think the ATR43SS2 or 3 would do what is (now) wanted, especially if E85 is the path to making the target. Tao's own recco is for an SS2 on E85 for 340rwkW, which is almost exactly on target. The SS3 would have more headroom, but it really demands a 4" inlet. I would probably try Tao's reccomended turbo at <1/3 the price of the name brand stuff I suggested above.
    • G25/30 Series. Nobody seems to run a BW EFR anymore, and not at a 320kw power level on 95 gas. I did back in the day on a RB28, I don't think anyone ever ran a 7163 on a RB25. That said, a G series is going to be much easier to fit being physically smaller which is more helpful than you might think.  The turbo is the only thing that really adds power to the car. It is the most important of all selections. Do not skimp on it. If it's a budget issue, save longer. The difference between a G series and these other options will be like 5% when all is said and done. What's an extra $1000 now when you look at it through the lens of all the $ already spent to support..... the turbo to do its job well.  I see it in LS worlds too, where they spend $50,000 on the motor to run 2x $300 ebay china turbos on the f**kin thing. With engine consumables, well - they all are. Just less with less power. It's either already rebuilt... .....or it's a 25 year old engine you are wanting to boost to (at least) 200% of stock power. It would be very wise to consider what the plan is, and be ready for it, when something does go south. Don't be that guy with a just completed-now-broken-car because you didn't budget for things to go wrong, which is how a low of projects end up sadly.
    • If you had to pick between Pulsar and Hypergear I would probably go Hypergear.
