VIC Calder Park drags Friday 4th December

Just wondering if anyone else is interested in going up to Calder Park for friday night drags?

The next one is Friday 4th December.

Details here:

I'll be going regardless (unless it's raining), if anyone wants to come run their car or just watch, post here so we can organise something.

 

i'm probably down

 

sounds like fun. anyone gonna race?

 

How much does it cost to race? Couldn't see it on the website???

 

You'll be wheel spinning the whole way, I could beat you in the 'rolla

 

haha quit stirring him up mate. he's got mickey T's... plenty of traction, it was impossibly hard to slide that thing.

i'll most likely be racing my zed. getting some rear tyres tomorrow. still deciding if i should bring the RE55s on stockies which should have @ least few runs left in them.

 

Mickey Tz FTW

 

RE55's for dragging? No way, side wall is too hard.

 

i was gonna follow GOTTAGO's formula, drop the pressures to around 17 psi and launch @ 5k.

if the pirellis i put on tomorror turn out to be sticky enough i'll just run them.

 

I could be up for this.
I need to get a few runs to get a benchmark before starting the rear end suspension work. At the moment it will axle tramp like buggery and be slow off the line, but you can't measure your improvement if you don't have a starting point!

All I have done in RZ2 is the 1/8th mile at Warwick, and was pleased that the speed was about 6mph higher to the 660 foot mark than RZ1. Now to do the whole quarter mile .

 

yeah im racing .. you chris ?

 

its about $60..

 

yeah i'll give it a go.

 

anyone got a video camera they can bring and maybe a tripod too?

 

if i get my clutch fork in, which should be done tomorrow if theirs a hoist free at work, and get my defect cleared, i will come down and run. i wanna see how i go. never been before

 

i will be there on the bike, the zed is off the road for a bit
i wanna see what i can do on the bike anyway

 

got a friend in a r32 gtst coming too.
are most of you guys working on friday? Gates open at 5pm so I will probably get there before then since I have the day off. racing finishes at 10pm so we can go get dinner after.

 

i'll leave work early and meetup with u guys. happy with my street tyres so i'll leave them on and just drop the pressures a bit when i get there.

 

if your running street tyres, dont do a massive burnout b4 the run. just a little one to remove all the rocks from the tyres and heat them up a little only.... if you get over their reccomended temp they will perform shitttt, so just a quick little burnouttt....

play around with it though, maybe have a run with massive burnout, one without...

good luck

 

I can finish up early aswell. If we don't wanna catch peak traffic, we should leave around 3pm from the East side.
