  1. im keen to get there again before christmas. one of my mates from work wants to line me up in his stock cv8 monaro. should be good for a laugh! I want to put on some decent rubber for next time, see if I can get down to a 13.0
  2. common misconception. build it right and it will cost just as much. it all depends how far you want to go with it really.
  3. oh now I know who you are. didnt realise you where someone from the forum. I was the hairy bloke in the lightning strike ute. your car is very tidy. dont really like the g6e normally but yours has a nice stance.
  4. thank you for that interesting information sir david!
  5. you bought a blue ford orange?
  6. I understand that but we are both stock. it turns out he just got a better launch (sedan vs lowered ute) see below makes more sense now. rednose, thanks for that advise, ill try that next time. so if I understand correctly the time doesnt actually start till you clear the light? so by shallow staging your gaining a jump effectively?
  7. yeah seems I missed that part, hard to believe there is more than one pink xr whats the chance of that, similar plates only a few suburbs apart and both on turbo fords?
  8. I replied last night but for some reason my post has gone missing. you really need to read the owners manual so you are familiar with the features of the car. also get a new tuner, as anyone tuning these things should have known that whats happening is part of normal zf operation.
  9. <3 stainos post liking spree keeping the love going while pazz is out of action
  10. are you worried about the legal issue or about your daughter getting into trouble in a turbo? if its just the legal side, maybe you are able to get an exemption like in nsw, if it is your only family car then you can legally drive a turbo car.
  11. the gs? where are the burnout vids?!
  12. got 8 runs in. for my first time out at wsid im pretty happy. no dramas and pretty consistent runs once I worked out where the start and finish lines where a best of 13.289 at 104mph what I dont understand is how this guy below runs so fast with very similar 60ft times? I ran 2.2 and 2.3 most of the runs yet got nowhere near that kind of et. there sure is alot to learn about this drag racing caper! ill post slips tomorrow so someone that knows more about this can give me a few pointers. keen to head back again soon.
  13. oh sh*t dazzler is coming to get me and he is getting very close, only a suburb away! keep looking daz, your close now. spotted heaps of turbos at wsid tonight. best one was CR.EE.PA lightning strike G6ET, the owner sporting an awesome moe to match the plates
  14. *pretty sure if you are overpaid by work they cant just take the money back. they can make you aware of the mistake and you come to an agreement on paying it back. *im almost certain but it may not be 100% correct. only probably 99.999999% maybe.
  15. on the daily? that's going to look pretty sweet! pics when its done
  16. day off work, nothing to do because wed and everyone else is at work about to head off to wsid.
  17. heading off now, see you guys there if your coming.
  18. flat out in here today. sorry about double post.
  19. ford au is hardly a large scale operation these days. im sure they could whip up 1500 or so coupes for us. make them anything below 100k and im in
  20. to do it properly you will also need this
