SPIKO Gold Donating Members 1,924 Member For: 19y 9m 15d Gender: Male Posted 28/03/10 02:35 PM Author Share Posted 28/03/10 02:35 PM (edited) Well done Spiro.... takes me back to the first time I ran the AU on ET Streets, first pass the car went 11.04 @ 132 and I had just beaten the manual modular time (which was 11.3 @127 done by a ute with slicks and frontrunners)...... to be honest I was considering calling it a day, but I was given another chance to run. 10.98 @ 130mph was the result.... it happens that quick.Getting to know the car after that just made things better and better, with better launches and shifts (never flatchanging though, I just cant bring myself to do it!) allowing my car to run as good as 10.78 with mph consistantly in the 135-137mph range before the clutch let go...... The long winded point I am coming to is this: My car had 850lb front springs and Koni's setup more for street/circuit in mind, weighed 2005kg with me in it, on drag radials with 507rwkw..... I came from 10.98 @ 130 to 10.78 @ 136 with just time behind the wheel and no other changes.........That monster of yours, with that power and that setup is going to get a hell of a lot faster I reckon!Again, well done.DanielThanks Daniel,You are definately on the money their mate, the car has gone down the track in one piece in it's current configueration a grand total of 5 times, only two of which it has been mildly run out the back door LOL.. Paul The Stig's approach to whole thing has proven to be alot wiser & sensible than my own resulting in some very good early runs on the board with the car. It definately has a bright future and plenty of improvement left to come albeit on step at a time.. guess who's been tasked with putting this beast back together tomorrow I hope I can remember where everything goes and good work on the 10 minutes of arguing it took to convince Paul to drive it Spiro!!! The banter between you 2 was priceless!!!Make sure there's no fingerprints on the car Steve when your done LOL geez I really wish I could have made it out there on saturday sounds alot more interesting then losing the grand final by 220 runsBy 220 nice work. bet you are happy with that mate.Extremely happy, however not quenched as yet awsome effort mate Cheers Posted Yesterday, 09:24 PM also can I suggest 90/10's in the front :D Not yet *Beep* Edited 28/03/10 02:38 PM by SPIKO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I come down later in the year will have to put them side by side down the track, it should make for a good video if nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
