OMG the Hallam. That'd be a whole new interesting thread that's for sure LOL. Oh well that's easy to get to then...

Ok, this is the current list as it stands now. # is confirmend and names in Italics are unconfirmed or unsure if they can make it.
I would appreciate that those that are unconfirmed contact me via PM just to let me know if you can make it please.

Currently 18 confirmed starters, approx the same as the E Series guys but I'd REALLY like to see a few more AU's get up and have a run. Lets face it guys, at $80 for a std power run this dyno day ($50 for 2 runs) is a dead set bargain. I know a heap of AU guys are looking at modding their cars soon and will need a decent base line for comparison later on.

Come on guys, lets have a bit of fun and see some great cars in action on the dyno. If you have never had your car on a dyno its certainly worth it. Great fun to watch and great fun to have a chat about it all later.
Edit: Of course ANY model car that is 2 wheel drive is more than welcome to sign up as well. More the merrier.

:

Surely there are more people that want to get a run on a dyno (or 2 runs as it is).

motomk · 26-01-2005, 11:01 PM

I know you guys have a timetable and stuff but could I put in a request to get on before midday as I have to be at work at 1.30pm.

Keep an eye out for me, I'll be floating around my Black LTD and the anouncer (v8capri). So feel free to come over and let me know what time you want to go on.

This applies to everyone!

au-steve · 28-01-2005, 01:43 PM

turbie au wont be running on dyno day, sorry shane, i'll be comming to spectate and mingle if thats okay though. actually i may just do a tame run at about 4 or 5 pound boost, not sure yet. however my shot diff could cause it to jump off the dyno or something stupid. hehe, new diff is going in as well soon. 3.7 LSD!
im getting a trans cooler fitted in the week after cause the cause for the blown convertor was apparently a mixture of over heating, a bad serviced box, and hard driving on top of it all.

Cobra · 28-01-2005, 07:52 PM

Someone will have to put me back on the list as an AU entrant! I don't have a Mustang! LOL.

Hey Casper, do you have any idea what time we would finish up? It doesn't matter when, just a time would be good. If it's a case of "how long is a piece of string" then so be it.

Last time it ended way after the sun went down..

I believe it was around the 8:00pm area..

Mr. CVE · 28-01-2005, 10:20 PM

it won't be anywhere that late this time as there will not be any 'intermission' !!

au-steve · 01-02-2005, 10:46 AM

im so getting a trophy for my class ... i just gotta idle on the dyno and i win. awsome.

dansedgli · 01-02-2005, 10:47 AM

Will your car be fixed by then?

au-steve · 01-02-2005, 10:51 AM

hopefully, but the tranns cooler is going in only next week :(
also the diff is seriously damaged so i wont be able to push it hard. ford wanted to replace the diff at the same time as the box, but im getting my LSD soon so i told them not to bother.
apparently the bad diff is really bad for the auto??!!? and the worn universals sound pretty unhealthy as well. damm standard drive line.

Yagz · 01-02-2005, 11:35 AM

FORD wanted to replace the diff at the same time? They are doing the work under warranty? Even though you've got a turbo? Or are you just getting them to do the work?
