Munched my First Clubsport


Recommended Posts

Guest Diabolik1

Well going home last night from the gf's house, i was going along Cumberland Hway towards Liverpool, i noticed a newish Clubsport going crazy behind me, and when catching up to me slowing down and just on and off the pedal next to me.

We stopped at the lights, and we both took off normally sorta booting it a little at around 40kms, and slowing down at 70ish.

Finally, we both stopped at the lights and we agreed upon having a little run...

I think this is the first time in the 4 months of driving my car that i did a perfect start (Brass Button Clutch was a bit hard to get used to) and by the second gear i was already pulling away. I slowed down at around 90 about 2 car lengths ahead of him, and slowed back down to the speed limit (70kms) and he just kept going. (prolly thinking he won)

I know street racing is stupid, and im proud to say ive only done it 2-3 times at 2-3am on straight roads, but im proud to have finally beaten a Clubsport with my R32.

Im pretty sure it was a VT, and it was an Auto (im not really a holden know it all). Anyone have any stories about Clubsports and their runs with them?

Congrats Goran... How did you feel? As dangerous as street racing may be, I love doing it! I guess there is a time and place for it all and 3am sounds about right. Bet he kept going to show off or something or to hide the fact that he got whipped!

Thanx all!!

It felt really really good :D

there was someone else in the car with him, but the dark tints of his couldnt tell me wether it was a girl or a guy, hope it was his gf, and she saw him lose, heheheh

Anyway, thanx again for your kind comments ya Clubby Munchers.

I can just see myself getting ****y and trying to race every single clubby i see, until one day i get my a55 whooped !

Hehehe....I bet he got the sh*ts because he lost so he kept speeding away so he wouldnt have to look like a d*ckhead!!!

hahaha..yeah they all do that...dont know why though.....

the other week, this Civic VtiR wanted to have a go at me...after 2 red lights i decided to humiliate him. Launched at 2500 and was already half a car in front...turned my head and grinned at him while his car started moving!!! slapped into 2nd and turned the indicators on!!! LOL!!!! after i backed off...he sped past me and never looked back! heheheh

Had a club sport do the same thing. We were going 60 and he's hammering it then backing off. Gave him a nod, put it into 2nd and that was the end of the story. At the lights he pulls up behind me rather than to my side.

Anyway, 180s have been a nightmare lately. Very embarassement!!

Naaa, I'd say he let you win :uh-huh:  :D  :P  :P

hehehe, doubt it, he actually weaved through traffic to pull up beside me and requested a run :uh-huh:

I've always thought hazards* were to indicate that you have won and they should go home with their tail between their legs :lol:

* = during a race not when car is on the side of the road :P

I hate it when people lose and they think they can redeem themselves by hitting the highest top speed after it's all done.

They're probably trying to beat the next set of lights so they don't have to look at you :P

Don't you normally show you've won by taking their lane? (and of course, indicating)

    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
    • I could see someone trying this to save money on oil changes.
