martymil · 03-12-2016, 09:13 PM

got over ten runs and home by 1pm

Thats awesome, I went years ago on a wed night and got 3 runs in...

It took me 4 hrs or so return trip, so wasnt worth my while!

Did you manage to improve on your time and launch with the motiv twin plate?

martymil · 03-12-2016, 09:48 PM

Wed nights suck, you will be lucky to get 3 runs most of the time

No improvement to hot

Very hot today but managed a best of 12.3 @ 118mph with a 1.9 60ft in a 30c plus temps

I don't think that time was to shabby

When temps drop I have seen 121mph

Late april or may would be a great time of year for a sunday drag day.

I meant to go last year but yeah didnt get around to it...

Last Wednesday when we went it was empty. They didn't even fill 2 lanes. By the time I got there at 6.30 and got scrutineered, they'd already done 4 runs. We got in about 6 and left around 8.30 or something. Probably could have done 12-15 runs that night if we stayed til closing.

Just depends on the night and whether you're unlucky with turnouts or people dropping coolant/oil on the track. That's the worst.

rookie question... can you just take a normal road car on to the drag strip?

martymil · 03-13-2016, 07:23 AM

No problem, any car

Orangee94 · 03-13-2016, 08:15 AM

do you need license fees or own helmet? or is it supplied

martymil · 03-13-2016, 01:29 PM

You need your own helmet with a 60 dollar entry fee

You need an Australian helmet with the latest Australian safety sticker on it
