Hi all,
at the weekend we attended the second round of the australian sport compact racing series.
in qualifying we ran a couple of pbs
9.55 et at 155 mph
then
9.36 et at 156.4 mph
we made it to the quarter final only to break out with a 9.592 et on a 9.60 dial in time
this put us third for the event and gives us a 120 point lead in the championship with 2 rounds to go.
the encouraging thing about the time were the track had been scraped on friday so had no rubber down which ment i had to feather the throttle for the first 400 feet or so, sixty foots were back at 1.69 instead of our normal 1.5's so on sixty foot alone theres a 9.0 to be had. we still have room to move on the tune so hopefully we will see a 8 sec radial tyred pass in the near future.
massive thanks to my tuner and crew chief Justin Gregory from BlackTrack Performance Dyno Centre in thornton. results speak for themselves. just put 3300 pounds and 156.4mph into a horsepower calculator, its pretty impressive not to mention the car performs time after time after time. thanks must also go to merv for his fabrication work at blacktrack.
also a big thanks to other local business who sponsor me 6Boost turbo manifolds, PRO Coat high temp coatings, MV Autos, microtech global, premier exhaust, and turbosmart.
to the newcastle people who sent sms's and phoned on saturday, thanks for the kind words
