For the guys who need a AS/NZS1698 standards helmet, I scored one today at Pro Yamaha Motorbike Accessories shop 69 Moss street Slacks Creek ph (07) 3299 1999.

Road full face helmet (RXT Helmets)

Was apparently only $130

On special for $75

If anyone gets one just make sure you get the right one as there are some on same

shelf that are still AS1698.

Yer Yer I have a big head being XLarge, Must be all the brains in it, pitty I dont use it to full effect.

Get this checking under car for loose turbo to manifold bolts, all good but the turbine (Exhaust) housing

to body had 2 bolts approx 10mm out.

Only thing stopping them from going any further was the oil feed banjo and return fitting.

Being noticing it to be a bit down on power as late, weather because of the hot climate

running standard cooler still or hopefully this loose housing was the reason.

Will know shortly as I head out for a test run.

myself and quite a few others have never had an issue with our standard 17" street tyres at 18psi at the drags before.

and I also run 18psi in ET Streets when I yous them.

and your best bet with launching on street tyres is to take it easy, maybe launch from 2000rpm.

the last time I was out at the drags on street tyres the max I could launch from was around the 2200rpm mark. still managed a 12.2@121mph, but with a sh*t 60 footer

If that helmet isnt the same thing as what we all have ( mine is anyway ) except for a different sticker, I`ll fly to Bourke!

I suppose, its not only be a liabilty nightmare for ANDRA , to say nothing of a logistical hassle to have our helmets checked and passed.

I just didn`t think to check before I bought mine, 6 weeks ago or whatever it was.

the ET's are hooking up good atm, not a hint of wheelspin at all.

if it was a dedicated drag car I would be running full slicks.

come winter I will be aiming for a 10. atm all I want to do is see how low I can get my times before winter comes around.
