6 hours and sorry $230 is a typo meant to be $200 (damn numeric keyboard) . Last time I did one these days a few guys did 30 odd runs so you get plenty of track time due to the small numbers.

Yeah I want to borrow my Dads Aurion for a few runs after talking to you at the track doing a mid to high 14 would smash most the 6 cyl NA at WSID.

Being big units likely high 14s would be a good race between you and me.

ran a 14.9@97mph that was about 10-15000km over its due service, a 130kg driver and half a tank of fuel fastest i seen was 14.4 or 14.5, i think that chick at TCS3 in the Aurion ran the same. i have the ZR6 that is the heaviest one of them all, i think the standard nuggets are about 70kg lighter.

im thinking throw a small 100-150 shot on also for a little added fun and to wake me up, its no longer funny the amount of times i have raced it and fell asleep behind the wheel then wake up to realise i still havent finished the 1/4 mile

the bad thing about them is u can't get into the ECU and do mods. however i have heard, from a mate there is a guy that is putting Kluger ecu's from Japan in and getting 330hp out of them. i think that is around 240kw.

Yeah thats what I have read to that there is not much you can do to them. The 100 - 150 shot sounds good fun to me how are you going to add the extra fuel?

I am 120kg and its a Touring Aurion so its pretty fat. So I would still have to carry a bit more fuel to even it out.
