Ben , I have finished a new engine and will dyno it this week and if all goes well I will see you on Saturday . I would like to know who else will
make the effort to join in . I believe Dave Stocker will run his car when he returns from Bali and Morgan will try to get his there as well , ROD.

Both mine and morgans cars are good to go. Henry said he will be there. I spoke to Keith a while ago and he said he might be keen but had to organise
a licence. Should be a good day if we all turn up.

Hey Paul give WSID a call to ask about how close you can get? I'm fairly sure there is a press pass that you can obtain to get close to the action?

Hi guys , I will not make the meeting this weekend as the new engine will not fit in the car . The engine is 30mm wider than std , so I started
cutting away the body and eventually got it to fit , to only find out that the inlet manifolds will not bolt up . I will leave it on the floor and
assemble another engine that will be a little narrower this week and hopefully run it before I go to Portland , ROD.
More boost + More fuel = More power

My car is moving in the right direction (at last) after gearbox and clutch tweaks over Christmas
4 runs, Worst: 12.57@106.97mph, CA 3044 ft. (1st run)
Best: 12.12@108.87mph CA 1926ft (last run of 4)
The initial track preparation was poor but was sprayed in the afternoon. The weather during the day was poor but improved into the evening as can be
seen by the Corrected Altitudes (CA)
Probably, the largest gathering of drag VW'S in Sydney at a general (non VW) meeting recently that I can remember - Good Stuff!!!!

Shame about the box Ben but it's certainly getting quicker!! Good to see Morgan into the 11's with the car running sweet!!
What times did Mike Waldron run? Youtube video only showed it once and it didn't do a full pass?
