Willowbank Race Night.

51OAU · 31-03-2010, 08:58 PM

Me and Josh (The monty) will be heading to willowbank raceway on the 28th of April to run our cars down the track. Im myself have never been down the track so im not expecting brilliant times, but a good low 14 should be in the bags i hope.

Just opening the invitation to any other Au drivers from around willowbank would be interested in tagging along?

CFOUR · 31-03-2010, 09:05 PM

thers talk of a qld cruise to willowbank on april 10th started by the b-series guys.
if that doesn't materialize i may be in for this

The Monty · 31-03-2010, 09:06 PM

Cant wait, should be a couple of AU's, at least 2 NA 6's running mid to low 14's, so would be good to come out and watch.

Cam · 31-03-2010, 09:11 PM

Not sure I'll get low 14's, but I'm aiming to be there...

The Monty · 31-03-2010, 09:18 PM

You will if you go down sideways, lol.

51OAU · 31-03-2010, 09:19 PM

be good if i could crack a 13!

The Monty · 31-03-2010, 09:32 PM

Tell me about it, I am doing a few things and a retune before we go out, so I should be closer than I am now.

That's what I am worried about... on 235 street tyres anyway...

frd906 · 31-03-2010, 11:00 PM

Might come for a watch, maybe crack the new engine and auto in

51OAU · 31-03-2010, 11:21 PM

yea mate come out, i wouldn't mind going up against a standard au just to compare

GS608 · 31-03-2010, 11:37 PM

sounds like fun, never been to the strip before, what sort of cost?

frd906 · 31-03-2010, 11:40 PM

dont no if ill be running or not, but for watching why not

The Monty · 01-04-2010, 04:13 AM

Its $40 for you, your car, and one passenger, and as many runs as you can fit in. For people wanting to spectate, its $20 each. So you may as well just race anyway.
You will need an Australian standards Helmet, long pants, covered shoes and a Jumper.

CFOUR · 01-04-2010, 12:17 PM

Helmet must retain dot approval sticker.

SLO AU XR8 · 01-04-2010, 03:06 PM

If my car is right, I'll be out there. I'll be trying to crack a 14.2 or better in my XR8!

SLO AU XR8 · 01-04-2010, 09:35 PM

51OAU, your on. I've got slips for a 14.3 so far. Now with added rear castor, so it should get better traction.

Cam · 01-04-2010, 09:52 PM

gee, will be nice to watch some worked 6's take on a stockish 8!

I'll be going for MPH, I cant see any decent times coming with just legal 235's..

My XR8 is pretty stock, T Series headers, single 2.5 zorst and the Lokka. Should be good to compare modded 6 vs stockish 8

Cam · 02-04-2010, 12:01 AM

I feel like I have been here before

Ok, lets make this a bit of a challenge then.
We'll get a list of us AU guys that are going out, and either a guess of how you think it will go, or a time that you have done that you want to beat. Closest person wins somethin. Say all chuck in $5 and get the winning person something (I need ideas).

So we have -
Cam - Aspirated 8 - wants ____
The Monty (Josh) - Aspirated 6 - 14.6, wants 14.3
SloAUXR8 (Brett?) - Aspirated 8 - 14.3, wants ___
510AU (Trav) - Aspirated 6 - wants ____
CFour (need help) -______- wants ____
FRD906 (Matt, Just do it, you wont hurt your car, and its only $40) - Aspirated 6 - wants ____

Fill in the blanks if you can guys, we'll try and line each other up (its not that hard) and have some fun.

SLO AU XR8 · 02-04-2010, 10:33 PM

Yes Josh, I am Brett. I'm hoping to beat my 14.3

**SSD-85** · 02-04-2010, 11:18 PM

Geez, Id love to do this just see what mine pulls. It will probably suck.

bensley · 02-04-2010, 11:21 PM

I'll be in that have no idea what mine will do with it's new found power.

Drew

GS608 · 03-04-2010, 03:40 PM
