BMW 1 Series Australian Drag Racing Standings

BMW86 · 03-02-2015, 01:11 AM

I'm not sure if MrBlonde updates this thread anymore.

My new best is 12.042@119.97mph.

It's been a couple years since I've hit the drags and I'm really happy with the trap speeds.

The car feels strong

That thing on the right destroyed me though.

Nice!

Similar to a stock M4?

What car was on the right? That thing is a monster!

I think M4's are doing 12.0-12.1 and trapping between 117-118mph stock standard. I would love to see what the M4 can do with a JB4 and some slicks.

My car is good for an 11 if I can bring down the 60ft time.

The monster on the right was some kind of track ute. It was a weapon.

Good effort! What mods do you have? Lsd?

JB4 FBO meth LSD and 18's.

I have run a 12.1 on 19's but I find the 18's to be more consistent.

Nice trap Vinney. 120mph is awesome. I think you'll be good for an 11.6 with a good 60'.

I'm definitely keen for a sunday drag day in future!

It's supposed to rain though tomorrow isn't it?

martymil · 05-30-2015, 03:04 PM

according to the weather website it suppose to stop by 7am

Roman00 · 05-30-2015, 07:05 PM

I might be going if the weather holds up!

martymil · 05-30-2015, 10:16 PM

Wasn't even raining and they called it off

Wish there was other venues to use as the wanks that run WSID could not organize a
root in a brother with a fist full of 50's.

Seriously even the scrutineering is a joke, what they let race and half the cars that blow up should never see the road yet alone the track.

This is beyond criminal and its only a matter of time before someone get seriously hurt at this venue.

Rant over, pissed because I really was looking to get a few more passes in than on Wed Nights.

Did you get any rain? Its been raining in newcastle since 7 am

How often do you go? Whats your best time so far?

martymil · 05-30-2015, 11:22 PM

Nah no rain here hasn't rained since 9 am, I go when I make changes to the car. Otherwise Its just a waste of time.

Best time to date 12.2 @ 116mph

Yes auto and at the time I was making 267 rwk using the cobb.

With my new setup and finally working out all the bugs I should me in the 11's.

New lpfp stage 2 pump is going in on Monday and a e43 custom tune.

I really wanted to do some passes before making the changes but it did not happen.

BMW86 · 05-31-2015, 03:01 AM

Nice time martymill

I wonder if Kenny will ever update this thread or if we should start a new one?

Ahh that's a shame!

What tyres are you running? I've only been to the drags once and jesus i reckon a 320i could have beaten me. My first run i dropped the clutch and had so much wheelspin 1st 2nd then in 3rd gear it stopped and i finally started moving... Then the 2nd time not enough throttle and it bogged down and I snagged 3rd gear, & my 3rd & last run i accidentally left dsc on and had a misshift for a 13.4 by memory

E85 is great stuff, I'm certainly glad i spent the $ for the stage 2 upgrade!

martymil · 05-31-2015, 07:52 AM

Don't laugh Nankang Noble Sport NS-20

I run 20's on my 135i

No wheel spin, I can hook up pretty well.

But to all those who run 18's and 19's get some nitto invos, these are by far the best tyres for the drags and street.

I have converted a few boys on here to run these on their cars a few of them are running high 11's.

As soon as they come into stock in my sizes I'll be getting them too.

martymil · 05-31-2015, 07:54 AM

Since the drags have been cancelled I've been having a little fun with my car today and omfg this things scares me sometimes.

Cant wait to upgrade the pump and e42 flash

I'll be going on Wednesday if anyone is interested in joining ?

As a word of advice, dont go running stupid tyres on these cars. Take my word for it - go and get some decent rubber.

martymil · 05-31-2015, 11:44 PM

Trust me they are good tyres rated at 300 km plus

They road race on these in Asian countries

I've been racing on these with no problems so far.

Just because its an unknown or lesser brand it doesn't mean its a bad tyre
