What power were you making at the rear wheels? I wanted to put mine on a dyno before I did any mods. But I never got around to it.
How low do you have your steering wheel? I've always have mine adjusted so I can see the speedo and tacho. It would drive me nuts not knowing.

I can't wait till you beat me.
But I do think that you will make 13 seconds one day. Have you made any mods since the last quater run to get to closer that elusive 13 second barrier?

I just got a picture of a smurf standing on the seat reaching for the wheel.

I was driving past Elite Automotive today and decided to drop in and throw my car on the dyno. I wanted to dyno my car before I did any mods just to get a base figure. :togo: Whoops!

If swanny could rip a 1.8/1.9 60 footer and hit his gears changes spot on with the mods as he stands he should get a 13.9 possibly 13.8, plus a little more experience on the 1/4 will help him as well, go hard guys, dam i wish i could get out there

PowerB and Joe, you 2 will have a mighty battle gunna be nice seeing 2 nice looking utes goin at it
Good luck all and hope you all hit your goals

You'll do better than you think
Remember
Just to change gear at 200 rpm under your limit
just have to work out your take off(havent driven a manual for a while)

I used line up get so clutch grabs and put revs around 2000 odd and then release and accelarate at same time on last orange light which hit green on go, but as I said havent run a manual for a while and the XR8 may be totally different ball game than a rotor

You will have fun in any case

If you think you are going to stuff up you probably will. You have to be more positive than that. Its not as hard as you think it is. I think you will do fine. Just don't let any of the n/a 6 boys beat you!

Now I really wish I was coming out

True coments bud, just go out to have fun and you will do well, listen to all advice and use what you find best for you.

You 2 will have to at least once get a nice pic or vid of you both on the burnout spot baggin them up, that would look good

Sounds like excuses to me. I turned up without cleaning my car last time. Who knows next time when I go racing I'll clean my car.....with the polished paint I should slip through the air better and with less dirt weighing me down I think I should pull 12's!
