Drag Race Ya Mates - Willowbank

[LittleRedSpirit]

Hello rollaclub.

I see willowbank has renamed the test and tune events, "race ya mate."

I'm in desperate need of a fresh 1/4 mile time since making a million changes to my setup.  I'm looking for someone to come race me on the 5th of April.

Anyone?

are you saying that you have to go with a buddy to race against now? you can't just go yourself?

 

[LittleRedSpirit]

Nah I just mean so i don't have to race vl turbos all night.

[love ke70]

I see, What sort of time are you expecting to run?

 

[LittleRedSpirit]

I really wanna break into 14s.  Car ran a 15.1 with 3.9 final drive, street tyres and a shitty tune.  Its now got sticky tyres, lighter wheels, taller gearing that should drop a shift and a higher rev limit with power all the way till cutoff, and softer springs in the back.  Ill probably leave some heavy items at home too.  If I get desperate I can take the socks off and load the 112kw tune, but Ill see what 106 can do first.  Gonna come along and race me with the 1ggte?

I am keen mate, have been waiting for the forecast to improve for a few weeks now. Its not that bad really, but still not worth driving 2 hrs to have it rained out.

I noticed there are quite a few on about mid this month so will be at one of those. A bonus too the weather is just starting to cool down so that will help your time a lil bit.

My neglected car started, so I'll come along and try to follow you.  Only a 5 minute drive home if the showers coming through.

event was officially cancelled.  will advise new dates.  input welcome.

I'm seriously thinking about doin the street meet on sat night,  it costs an extra $5 for the day licence but forecast is ok i think.  Your car would prob do e well in the racing so might be a bit of fun.

I thought about that but I don't know how to handicap it having not run since doing so much setup.  I think I need a hit out to see how it goes first.

[oh what a nissan feeling!]

I have never raced one before but it says you get the first 2 hrs as practice then racing after that. I'm told that you get a lot of runs as less people than tnt.

Sounds good but I'm looking at dinner with some friends tonight.  Sorry.

I'm keen to start out at one of the less formal days.

[LittleRedSpirit]

Yo this is on tonight and I'm going I reckon.
