Eastern Creek
Who's up for a Wednesday night run. I'm a starter and I think Turbo boy Leigh might be a starter as well.......anyone else?

does the car need to be street registered ?

I'm not sure, I think it does. Just trailer it out and slap some plates on it. This is something I would never do mind you.:thumb
You have to get out there early I hear because of all the Mud Mazdas that get out there. That's sick maaaate.

Looks like it's just me.....

LOL

Good luck Pete:thumb

dont think I can make it, my mate with a modified A3 is running too

But i cant make it cos I have to work late on wed

what time, and where to meet?

Same with me, ive got work.
Sorry have a good time and good luck with your times!!!!

Sorry Pete I'm out, can't make this one unfortunately I have exams.

I've included a pic though of my car reset off the bump stops, hoping for better traction and weight trasfer. Dunno how i drove around for 6 years on the stops, rides so nice now though!!!!!!

Maybe the next one!

Pic.

I'm leaving Botany about 3PM, not sure of the layout at Eastern Creek. I think there is a Bug from Flat Four going out. Chris with the FI 2100. Scutineering is from 3-6:30.
Leigh, that must make quite a difference now that you have some travel in the rear!

Leigh, your engine lid is open. I reckon you should lose it all together. Your car would make a nice baja.

It may rain guys

if u guys dont make it ill be there the following week

take some vids i want to see some VW's fry some Rice

Hi

Cant go my cars in the panel shop.

why? what happened?!?:o

Leigh did I see ur beast at VW Village today?

Hi Peter L

I was at Eastern Creek on the really windy Sunday a few weeks ago, the passenger in the 914 Porsche next to me got out and his door got caught in the wind and just hit my rear 1/4 :cussing

1302Steve

so if it hit your rear 1/4 how come you still here and your car is in the shop?

porsche pile of junk.

Hi,

Nope not mine. There's another phantom getting around that I keep hearing about. Guys at work ring me on my mobile telling me I should be at work on a weekday and not cruising around in my car. Everytime they ring I'm at my work desk!!!

Chris, yes I've often thought of turning it into a Baja Bug, but it would stand out too much! I like the stealth look.

Pete you'll love it, hooks up with ease now.

Cheers Leigh

:vader

Steve

Pete done good
Low 15's

2 other beetles out there. Flat 4 guys i think. Both aqua late 60's?
They did a bit better with mid to high 14's

Man there were some fast cars there.
Heaps running 12's and 13's

Even a couple sub 10's :o

My mate in his A3 Turbo got a 14.9

Who is this phantom bug?

:beer

Hey Baz, what were the engine specs of the 2 beetles? & what was Pete in? the 1916 speedster or the subaru spyda?
Jak

Jak

Yep that was Pete in the Speedster with 1916.

Was a great night, had lots of fun.
The last run I did I had moved my seat prior, as I launched at the lights the seat slid back and I neally disapeared into the back seat!
Next time I'm going to tune the car. The webers are as they came out of the box from new and need some jetting.
As they say at Eastern Creek......."that's fully sick maaaate"
