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. ;)

I have a video of Paul's 10.3 pass...................tried to download it today at work without success. How do I do it? any suggestions??

What format is it in?

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

Speaking of video's i've just created some.

Disclaimer:

* I didn't have a tripod so they are shakey as hell

* I didn't have much battery/tape left (friends camcorder)

* I captured the pics on a digital camera but used an analogue cable + capture card

* The videos are in Xvid format (www.xvid.org)

* I have a few more that will be ready tomorrow but these are the main/best video's

* Go the 31 !!!!

You can download them from here

can someone confirm that it works please

Works for me, took about 1min @100kB/s so I estimate it may take up to 20 Min to download on a modem...

Just leave it open, come back in a while.

Great lo mount time BTW :) Good work!!

"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

fellas, i aint usually this dumb. but icant work out this xvid stuff. i downloaded a zip file from their site, but it hasn't got an exe file or anything. what the f**k do i do

Try installing this file: http://download.divx.com/divx/DivXPlay.exe (7.6mb)

I had to do them in Divx/Xvid to keep the size down because the mpeg files are 40-100mb each.

    • What are your plans for your blow off valves? Purely plumb back? How soft will the spring in them be? AFM can be tricky to get super smooth and nice, especially depending on the rest of the system, and then can be very easily upset if something slightly changes. IE, even if you run recirc blow off valves, you could still see issues getting it to behave at certain load points as turbos might start to spool, but you release the throttle but it's not enough pressure to crack the bov open to recirc, and you can end up with reversion which can cause double metering, and hence dumping of fuel into the system, and stalling the engine.   If you're going to run a map sensor for closed loop boost control from the ECU, what makes you want to keep the AFM?    
    • It's not bad, it's just not flexible. And say if you have any leaks between the MAF and plenum, well then your load axis goes out the window. Here's a real world scenario, I blew off an intercooler hose last track day, as the clamp decided to Bluetooth itself somewhere. Still continued to do 2 laps and drive it to the pub for a couple of beers then home. Good luck doing that with a MAF setup 
    • Is MAF load really that bad? I'm not trying to do big power, my only real desire is VCAM and flex fuel support so I'm not terrified of blowing my engine apart from CA's appalling 95 RON "premium" fuel. Stuff like playing with closed loop boost control and really dialing in my transient fueling and ignition are frankly just to prove to myself I remembered something from uni.
    • Thats what ive been doing. Ive got a million questions but i know theyve probably all been answered before at some stage. Todays research included nismo heritage seat covers, s3 projector headlight retrofits and how to remove/paint the rocker covers
