I really need to get some cheapo tyres to burn at the track rather than the ones I have on.

Then its all on.

I'll be up again in couple of weeks, but not tomorrow. Wallet needs to recover, and I want to have my WBO2/Datalogger hooked up before I go again...

yeap i'll be in it for sure didn't go tonight though watched the footy . i'm only 15 minutes away from eastern creek so definately head out there one wednesday night . it would be good to meet some of the forum members, and see some run a time. next time people head out post it on the forum.
took the family there a few weeks ago at the nitro drags . good to see 7 sec passes but i'd prefer to see road cars. one day if i'm game i might take the GT for a run there. but will watch a few times 1st i think.

One was running 13.9's all night, no mods but unsure if it was an auto or a manual.

I like your thinking Loxx. We should go when the last Origin game is on (in 2 weeks?)...

Good question.

I have found at the strip anyone who wants to run has mods but won't admit to it.

He did have his bonnet up inbetween run's, sounded like a stocker so i assumed it was stock.

Didn't see your beast out there last night, spoke with the bird in the bluprint xr8 who ran a 14.3@?, and the Gt in question was sounded like it had a stock zorst.

I know a VZ 6.0 that got pumped by a blueprint 260 ute with a Bulge the other night.

The commodore owner accused the said driver of the 260 of having a V8 bonnet on a turbo car (maybe it was the stock exhaust, heehee)

I was fortunate on my last appearance at WSID to blow off a HSV Maloo ute, all 297kw's+, he had some mods and it was a great looking car. He'd been improving all night, we finally ran each other, it was close(a couple of hundredths) but the Falcon came up trumps.
