New format is balls, not running the standard tree anymore on a wednesday which means it's pro tree, instant green, & wonky tree going forward. I'll stick to national meets & Fast Fridays going forward.
Who's purple VE? Rodney's??

Only suprise will be when it hits limiter in between gear changes followed by it going bang........well not really that much of a surprise i guess unless its been somewhere after the charger was fitted.

Does it have to be run in? Because the place that he's getting it done said it'll be fine to go straight down.

How's it different to the normal tree set up, i haven't been to waw since early last year.

Does WAW still run the times based on when you leave the line or is it when it hits green? Also does anyone know if you can run a passenger?

Yes to passenger provided your passenger & car meet the same requirements as set out for the driver.

How do you go getting in - I emailed them 9 times to ask to bring my car there - no fucking reply
Ring them, and they said no fucking way
Now Ive gotta pay up and go to the track this Sunday to get a couple of runs in
I should have just turned up lat night, but didnt want to drive 220km for nothing

What car? It's a street meet, so you wouldn't be welcome in anything that's not semi streetable.

Dean, is that the only silly buggers they are playing with the tree? I keep getting - reaction time even tho i did not red light.... is there a red light anymore ? something was all fucked up with the start line proceedures anyway...maybe i pissed off the starter sleeping too many times...

Apparently there was huge errors with the timing system last night, so maybe that extended to the reaction timing as well?? I haven't been down this seaqson yet myself, so only going off motorplex website updates & facebook statuses.

wouldnt have been worth the drive last night mate, it was farking packed. i presume that ppl were taking time off from powercruise as there was quite a few cars with powercruise stickers on windows.
i got there just before 6pm. unloaded and didnt get first run till after 7 as scrutineering was packed. (i ate dinner in the car while waiting, lol)
as for timing, it was fine, the track clock was out though. i.e saying runs were at 16hrs and not 20:08hrs etc.
Dad's car is now quicker mph wise to mine now, but we were both running 10.3's. I broke blower/engine belts on one run against the police drag car car but still won. :-p
i think i got 4 or 5 runs in total though, was quicker getting runs after burnouts as per norm.

yeah ok i think there system is a bit fucked....i suspect some of my times were wrong, the staginging beams were being very touchy and i got -0.400 reaction time 4 or 5 times.... -0.400 exactly, fuck i must be consistant !!

not sure, didnt get the slip, i was told i ran a 10.9 and he flew past me at the end thanks to my belts letting go.
Turbo2.6L
11-10-2012, 12:40 PM
He was running 10.80's last season, before the intake changes he made over the off season. I daresay he would've run quicker than 10.9X... Must've slept on the line.

took ages for it to upload to u tube, but here is the video of the run.

Car still wears No plates lol
From the outside it looks std
Its just a gutted and 6 point caged VT ex pigger running a 402 and th400 on full slicks
Pikey gave me permission to run last year, but now he has gone, the story has changed - Ive still not had a single reply to any of my emails pingpingpingpings

That would be fine at WAW without anyone having to give you the go ahead. Just make sure it's safe (tyres/brakes/seatbelts/harness etc etc so that they pass it in scrutineering.

Tow the car down and when you get there swap number plates from the tow car onto the car you want to race, its not like they have a dpi computer to check up the details.

if you have an andra license then i wouldnt worry about it. even if you didnt, its hihgly unlikely they would knock you back providing the car is sound safety wise. i.e brakes work and its not leaking fluids. which with the money invested in the motor/trans definetly isnt.
