Warwick 2011
Bug_racer - June 6th, 2011 at 09:06 AM

I cant believe we are less than 4 months out and still no thread !
Thought Id start one just in case you guys forgot .

Im hoping to take 2 cars this year , if , I can get some transport up for one of the cars . So , is there any interest this year to hire a truck and bring cars up ?

Dave B , will your new set-up be ready for testing at Warwick ?
Trent , you still bringing both cars up ?
Rod - Will your car be finished ?
Everyone else - whats the status of your build ???


Questions for the weekend are :
Will there be a 5 second pass from one of the heavy hitters
Can a watercooled car crack the 7 second mark
Who has the quickest street car :D

I'll be there racing can't wait how about you?

It would have to be Aaron's Black bus.


LIFE IN THE LOW LANE - June 6th, 2011 at 01:16 PM

Questions for the weekend are :
Will there be a 5 second pass from one of the heavy hitters - If one of the CBB crew have a nice clean run, Boys from Volkommen Art or if Trent makes it there?

Can a watercooled car crack the 7 second mark - If Guy Harding brings his New Golf R then that is quite easily achievable especially if it makes the HP he hopes it will!! (approx 600hp at the flywheel)

Who has the quickest street car - If Aaron gets a clean run then he'd have to be odds on favourite?

I just hope the weather is fine all weekend so we get good track conditions and heaps of incident free racing!!


RISKY4LIFE - June 6th, 2011 at 05:13 PM

yeah it's coming around fast
i have a lot to do but it wount take much to beat last year performance LMAO :spin:
car's like rod's should not be rushed but it would be great to see it there
i think daves new combo will be running no probs
i hope the last week will not be 16hr days again :(


Stanley - June 6th, 2011 at 07:21 PM

I really don't want to think about it at the moment....:spin:

LOL Big claims without proof! My R32 with 500hp has run a 11.8@120 mph. I haven't seen any of Guy's cars run anywhere near that, So how can you say he has the fastest street Golf?

You talking the Quarter there bud or the 1/8th. Warwick is only 1/8th so for Guys car to get what Life In The Low lane suggest wouldn't be much of an issue for him i don't think???

That is an excellent performance, good work!

I dont think Brenndann was refering to outright fastest in the country,
or even mentioned "street water cooled VW"!

.... just who might be in the 7's at Warwick , water cooled VW.
If you race at Warwick you can be the fastest water cooled VW there.


stoker - June 7th, 2011 at 08:16 AM

shit harry, you had to go and mention 5 sec pass,but its good of you to put up $200.00 for the first to get there and we will gladly accept it MATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I doubt he will show up , he has been invited many times and always declined !

And your making a big claim by saying yours is a street car too !
Anyone can run a pass in their hometown , but it takes a true street car to drive some 800kms , race and then drive back home !

Could ! You dont know whats brewing in other workshops :borg:


vw54 - June 7th, 2011 at 06:00 PM

a 5 sec pass now that would be good


grinderman - June 7th, 2011 at 06:21 PM

At the opposite end of the scale I,m hoping to be there with 'team china' after a 2 year absence. There's only one problem....... the datsun powered squareback was COMPLETELY submerged in my backyard during the january floods!!!!!:( What are the chances of getting it going again? I spose I'll start by draining all the fluids and taking the carby off and giving everthing a good clean. Dont know, thank god there's no computers in the thing.....hoping for low 10s lol

I've done 50,000k's on this turbo setup you goose! Drivin the car to wakefield many times and WSID and never had any problems.. I know who you are and I'am sure you know this car! Don't be a smart ass!
My HPA 500hp R32 has more than proved it's self. I've never seen or heard about anything you have built Seb.
I'm coming, But now my car has a R36 TT engine with 650hp.. But i'm sure your S3 is a better daily driver... LOL

I dunno how many k's youve done , or what stage your up to with the car . I havent seen you post much on any forum in a while and Im suprised you even found this forum ! I know you were meant to be getting a Scirroco , I thought that that car was getting the R36 TT engine ? Either way Im always happy to hear of any times you post , and also happy to come along and watch when you run ! BTW Lucas's 11.7 still stands as the fastest watercooled VAG car in Aus , Im sure you can beat that time now with the R36 engine :cool: .
As for my achievements , well , a lot of stuff I did in the past and Ive had a bit of financial pressure you could call it , from a past relationship placed on me thats made finishing any viable project very hard ! Although it doesnt mean Im done and dusted , just taken extended leave from my own projects :crazy: . As for the S3 , its been unregoed since 2008 , due to those reasons .
Would be good to see you come up to Warwick , its a good atmosphere , great people , good fun , no real pressure and heaps of time can be spent on the track . Bring your wife and kids , grab a tent and join the party !


RISKY4LIFE - June 8th, 2011 at 07:31 PM

OK :love: chill peeps
now the real Q & A is what carbys are you running on the datsun donk? LMAO low 10 seems good for a squareback running a l20 ??

LIFE IN THE LOW LANE - June 9th, 2011 at 02:35 PM

Apmitchell74 I have seen the pics and heard of your car but never read about how fast or how much hp it makes. Sorry to strike a nerve with you but nowhere did I say that Guy's car was the quickest in Australia or made the most hp!! Please read the post before firing up your fingers on the keyboard with a response that wasnt really called for. Yes Guy has been asked to come to Warwick but it clashes with an event held by the Porsche club each year. Warwick/Portland has always been attended very poorly by the water cooled community so if someone like yourself with the sort of car you do have(which I do like very much!!) it may be the catalyst to get others involved in a great weekend of racing.

Cheers :)

Sorry Brenden don't see how my post was offensive. I was just asking were the proof was for those claims. To many people post false numbers etc on the forum.. That's all.
See you all at warwick.


LIFE IN THE LOW LANE - June 9th, 2011 at 10:30 PM

Well I guess if the car Guy is building is finished in time for Dyno Mania then the proof will be there for all to see!!

Look forward to seeing your car in the flesh!!


westi - June 10th, 2011 at 04:42 PM

Hey stoker I got a better chance of running a 5 second pass than u buddy.it's nos time buddy.
I love stirring the pot.hahahahahha.
I look forward to finally winning a drag meeting.
Who's the odd's on favourite and what's it paying.
