Before you judge someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you judge them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
going to check it out!!!:bounce

One word.......HOT!! managed to fry my clutch on the first run.
Couldn't shift into 2nd under load and ran 14s
@115MPH after shifting it into 3rd from first......but all I could smell was that frying clutch.
Next week....:thumb

Is that a Saturday??? I believe I am on the dyno that morning with Paul, I think it would be wrong not to go for a run. What is sport compact class? Are there still taking entries? I'm keen to see what the car runs....i wasted a worked rex the other night by 8 car lengths!

Entries closed on Friday.
Entered VWs as of Thursday
Macca Smith - All Motor
Dave Becker - All Motor
Mike Waldron (Dave Stoker's LMS car) - ET
Just had a look at the time slips from Wednesday and both my runs were 1.7s and 1.8s 60' times from my best of 2.2s 60' when I did 11.6 @ 125 MPH a while ago. So next week I'll try again with my new clutch. Looks like the LSD is doing it's job.....that's the diff I mean........I don't do that other LSD anymore........:P
Bugger missing the entry......

Having another go tomorrow night WSID, last attempt with the new LSD in a spare box .. couldn't shift second under load for some reason. Had Tony Rigoli build my original box with the LSD and a Jim Berry clutch (well part of one anyhow!). So.....last time with the LSD I reduced my 60' to 1.7s from 2.2s (when I did a 11.6 @ 125 MPH)
so........this time? If I can put it all together:thumb

This might seem silly but your selector fork is not bent? I had the same problem with my suby rally car after I rebuilt a new box. Kept jumping out of gear under load. Had a look and the 1st/2nd gear selector fork was bend a bees dick, about 2mm. Everyone gearbox person I asked/told about thought I was nuts, but I changed the fork and fixed the problem. Just a thought!

"Drive it like dirt"
Back from the dyno this evening with the new 2.5 Subaru engine, can't get a figure as it just turns the tires when it comes on boost. Dom Rigoli says just to get a wide set of street tires for a better tune on the rollers. Only 220 at the rears, down from 240 with the old 2.0ltr. When I drove the car on the trailer I found most of my Yokohama AO32Rs on the passanger seat. So if weather permitting I'll get to WSID tomorrow night for a run.:thumb

Had a run last night with the WRX boys that had a complete lane. The track was very slick and the car was moving around a hell of a lot, quite unnerving really as I've never had that before. I suspect there was no track prep at all.
At first I thought it might be my new alignment (zero toe front, 3mm rear) but I had some high speeds at Eastern Creek Raceway the week before and the straight line handling was fine given I was + 20 MPH than on WSID.
My times were
12.02 @ 118 MPH 1.92 60'
11.98 @ 121 MPH 2.03 60'
12.57 @ 120 MPH 2.40 60'
But shite it was a cold night in an open car............
No VWs were there by the way, very sensible of them really.

What was your best half track ET and MPH...for what we can expect for Warwick.

Best 1/2 track was a 7.92 @ 93 MPH.
The Spyder won't be up at Warrick isn't eligible to run.

Seems like every sanctioning body and government body around the world, wants the minority groups to be separated rather than included.
