[Sambo33]

i had a great time at AIR, it was loads of fun

thanks to Duc & Darren for coming along, thanks Darren for the imput on how to improve my time.

my best RT was 0.792

best 60' was 1.978

best ET was 13.489 sec

best MPH was 104.51

[Nightcrawler]

nice time there Sam - that's about the 1/4 mile (and mph) I hope to get in the R34 when it is done.

[chops]

Great going Sam.

Any 60' sub 2.0 secs on true street tyres is something to be proud of.

Mid 13s on your first ever trip to the track is no mean feat either.

MPH says there's a little more in her yet too!

After Danh's issues earlier in the day, we lost interest in running last night, so poker it was.

[Sambo33]

Thanks guys

too bad you couldnt make it down, i was looking forward to seeing the Calais & GT-R run down the strip.

heres my best timeslip, lol @ my R/T on this one! i did my burnout dropped it out of gear & forgot to put it back into gear afterwards thankfully the R/T doesn't affect the ET

btw - im #647, left lane.

You launched well with that power, street tyres and weight Sam :thumbup:

Try some semislick next time and you could be in the 12.

Sorry for the absence. Hopefully I will get my track toilet to the drag strip soon

[REdgtst]

nice 60" sam..... My car is having boost problems.... (only operating at factory levels and some huge knock --> ive seen 130 a couple of times)... Hoping to get it sorted b4 friday..... hope to see you guys at the next lot of drags...

[Deluxe]

No worries Sam was a good Arvo/night. Looks like we might have to organise a SAU Drags day/night maybe in the new year and when it cools down a little!!!!!!

[Sambo33]

cheers guys! SAU drag day sounds like a good idea to me. I was one of only 3 skylines there. the other was a stock looking R31 silo that did 11s and the other was an R32 GT-R running huge slicks and in the 10s!!! i lined up against them both and got totally blitzed

[Nozila]

that white r31 is stupidly fast.

[chops]

Is that the white 31 that has the twin turbo V8 in it?

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun.

Would have been nice to watch.

BTW is anyone coming out to spectate this Saturday at AIR?

Keir is coming out. Hopefully he will complete the R&D with the first few runs. He's expecting to dial in the max amount of nos with treaded radial ( if everything go well). It will be fun to watch.

[r31turbo]

hey theres two r31's the one that has the twin turbo v8 was at "prostock" and ran into 10's from what i hear. the other is a mate and ran a 11.6 (guy works for madaz) or so its na with a gt turbo and aftermarket tunning. both are gts1's !!!

[Madaz]

i will be going out in the new year sum time my mate from sydney is comming over so if there is a meet on then i might go out

[9krpm]

we should organise a SAU drag day at the beginning of next year. Book a fully prep track and have as many runs as possible.

[chops]

Danh, how did Keir go on the weekend?

imo that would cost a bit

i was looking into booking out malla for a drive day and for 30 ppls it was gunna cost us all 400bux as u can imagine i didnt get alot of interest ...this was when i had my R31

[9krpm]

u should check it again

I don't think it's that much madaz

[Madaz]

remeber i was checking out a drive day @ mallala with the guys from that racing mob where u drive there race prep'd commo's cept i said we didnt want those we drive our 'lines we were gunna get instructors tuition if u wanted it i think lunch it was a full day with 2 instructors also

[9krpm]

Danh, how did Keir go on the weekend?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

track was poorly prepared

we got there early and keir did not run until 2ish

keir had only one run and could not get the power to the ground anywhere

we packed up and left after that

a few beers and late lunch with the boys was the only good part of the day

[9krpm]

oh I forgot,

apparently after we left the track was shut down for 2 hours by Andra due to the sun. Timing gears broke after that and everyone race with out timing gear

Can't wait to see better management at AIR and the timing board back on the stands Lets not organise anything at AIR until we see some improvement. The place is quite embarassing for south australian compare to avenues in other states.
