Anyone heading out for a test and tune one of the Saturdays in December?

I'd say Dave will be up for it in the buggy.... Just have to drag him away from his new born son for a night! That'll be the challenge! Although, if I just go prep his car, load it up and tell him I'm going to willowbank it should get him moving!

andrewmurphy ·

Currently thinking Saturday 14th.

Performance Upholstery ·

He'll see this eventually.

Stanley ·

Normally I'd be in but still missing some vital bits.

Performance Upholstery ·

You've still got 14 days Stanley!

andrewmurphy ·

Was just informed that 14th is out. Will need to be 21st. Andrew - you now have 21 days.

Stanley ·

Might still be tight....probably need to dyno before track time....especially with Sydney coming up.

We packed up Bec's type 3 last Saturday but got rained out so it looks like tonight is a goer.

Stanley ·

Good stuff Aaron....good luck

20bkombi ·

Heading to the track again in Becs type 3 now, hopefully crack a ten.
Ran 11.16@ 111.69mph but the best mph was 124 on Wednesday, so made some changes to the intercooler as intake temps were as high as 98'c

andrewmurphy ·

Ballistic blanket fitted..... Good to go but first chance will be the 21st.

Good luck Aaron.

20bkombi ·

10.92@ 126.55 first run with ease!!!!! Woo hoo !!!!

Sides ·

Awesome stuff Aaron !!!

👍

Does that mean Bec has to get the square tech'd now ???
❓

20bkombi ·

Will try for the 21st may be just for a look if you go. Keep us posted

andrewmurphy ·

Forecast is looking good for Saturday..

Who's going to race and watch?

Performance Upholstery ·

As far as I'm aware we are coming up with daves buggy! I prepped it last night while Dave talked on his phone and buffed his primer with an oily methanol rag. Lol!

20bkombi ·

Nice one Mick, did you take it for a spin too, while he was on the phone, lol!!!
Will be good to see Dave at the track again.
See you there, good luck guys.👍👍

Stanley ·

I'm in....looking only

Performance Upholstery ·

No Aaron, were allowed to do everything for him except drive the car.... We got a sweet deal going 👎

OZ Towdster ·

Yep i'mm up for it , might even through the 40 IDF's on the Rat to get a bit more top end out of the poor little rattler

andrewmurphy ·

Well that last run was 'fun'!!!!!!!!🤪

vassy66T1 ·

Performance Upholstery ·

I wish! I'd like to see that again! In replay of coarse.... Don't do that again Andrew.

Ha ha! Andrew nearly tipped his car on its lid last night! Scary stuff... He handled it well.

Here is a copy of the sick boost wheelie pic from last night.

Working on vid now, we were a bit short staffed last night but Mick still found time somehow to get enough stuff for me to put something together for you.

Cheers Dave!

andrewmurphy ·

Did a once over the car today.....all good thank goodness.
Changed oil.
Checked rockers and springs all good.

Cleaned seat.

Let's race again!
