Well done! As I said in the PM, I knew it was going to happen and I was so pissed that I couldn't be there to see it.

:D cheers :)

PS; I am surprised that they let you keep running. What happened to the one 10 = goodbye? Are they going soft?

SK...they give you a "warning"....its like.."you do that again and you can go home"....its like a mates mother yelling at you when you've pissed in their pool...lol...WSID track Nazi's....its funny you don't get that at Willowbank.

You still get booted...but they are cooler about it....its like "fu(k that was a mean pass...but if you go better than that it will be time for congrats stubbies with the car in the pits"

I got booted first time I went under 11.000 .. no appeal for one more pass was given a millisecond's consideration!

They mustn't have liked you Kenny....they were a bit harsh to me...but they said another 10 and your gone (10.8 first pass)

We ran 10.7 @ 134 and they were adamant we were out of there until we had a full tech inspection with cage, etc. The senior ANDRA person at the timeslip room asked what time I ran .. when she heard 10.7 she just shook her head. I got the impression if it was like a 10.9 she might have been persuaded.

I get on quite well with the WSID and ANDRA people there, quite a good bunch I've found. I've also noticed that they a much easier to get along with once you have an ANDRA licence and even more so when you start working towards a full tech inspection compliant sedan.

Brett, I assume you're going to spoil that street car and get a six point ANDRA cage? Are you going to get Greg Schultz to do your tech inspection?

Funny thing about that is i was fully teched and licenced....they just carried on a bit with the "authority".

Looks like there will be some action in the 6cyl RWD radial tyre ranks this summer. :D Cool.

And here I thought my [email protected] (72 Crown, BFG) would be a reasonable run from last saturday! Bugger. The car was hitting the limiter way out, so a diff change is on the cards.

Nice time there mate. Well done. Is there a thread on SAU for a few more details on the car?

I was booted too from AIR last sunday after a [email protected] (hoosier-but still only 1.860ft) so I've got a bit of work to do over christmas.

I'd say at least one of us will be in single digits by march.

And again-well done. ;)

    • Gotcha! Thank you for the correction.    The goal would be 600 bald eagle (screech) pony power yielded on a roller dyno, but I’m more interested in responsiveness at low RPM and full-boost before 4000RPM.   
    • 93US is 98RON. 91 is a little on the low side to try to push to 600HP, but at least you can control boost to something more conservative when you're not on the good stuff. Also, we should check. Is that 600HP at the flywheel? Or using the usual pony power yielded by US roller dynos?
    • Hi! That is correct. 91 Octane US. probably similar to P98 AUS.    I’ll update my location 
    • Hey Eric, it will help to put your location in your profile. 91 Octane is the lowest quality fuel available in Australia so I'm thinking maybe you mean US 91 not Australian
    • Im in the process of swapping out turbos for a Hypergear ATR43SS-2. I bought a water/oil line kit from Mamba, for Garret GT30, according to Tao. All fittings fit properly, except for the water return line. It has a -AN fitting to hose barb. From what I see, I need to remove hardline and install hose barb fitting to rubber line behind the head. I located the rubber line but is there an easier way to gain access without taking valve cover or intake manifold off?
