I was supposed to be going tomorrow, but noticed that alot of other cars from some of the other AFF clubs were going next week so decided to catch a movie instead. :(
I'll be there next week, might even race but not this week.
Sorry mate, have a great run and have fun. Should be a good night for it and I look forward to seeing what the wagon will pull.

Well done mate, I saw that run and was quite pleased to see you hit the 14.0. Thats an awesome time for the little mods you have.

The Futura did a few 14.40s with the old 173rwkw tune...

And thanks to Ruger for his advice on the launch technique otherwise I'd still be in the 14.7's.

Go the 3V! 14 is pretty impressive, I look forward to seeing what more it can do.

Not good to hear the 14.4 Youssef, looks like more racing is in order! :

Interested to hear how the Wagon went?

Ben (bawag) did 16.088 I think he said. Not bad considering he's got a bullbar off a Mack truck. If he took it off he'd rip 14's...

More confused than disappointed really Clayton.

hehehehe good night out folks. Was overly busy though.

Youssef - that little trick just proved that its the torque tags giving you grief. Pain in the rear end, bloody bf's.

That 16.0 is on the money. Should be able to dip into the 15s as it is which is quite impressive considering it probably weighs near 2 tonne. Wagon powah!!!!!!
