Thanks herman we better start putting the car back together.

What was the fastest et from last year/fastest mph

we did a 121mph pass for memory

IIRC, Mickey Thompson Street Radials are not legal in Australia, as they are not speed rated. I get a lot of tyres from the US, and have the same problem, all their good stuff is not speed rated, and the DOT approved means nothing here.

YMMV

Is This a meeting organised by the club?

profi · « **Reply #8 on:** January 29, 2009, 03:30:15 pm »

Yeh its run by the club. Nez Demaj normally organizes it.

Last year cars were running mikey thompsons.

Hopefully we can run them we had severe traction problems with semi slicks last year.

So who is going to take their cars out?

Heven

The club works in conjuction with the legal off street meeting that is taken place on the same day.

Yes, my car should be out there this year.

BLKPNY · « **Reply #11 on:** January 29, 2009, 10:19:58 pm »

So, whats the record for ET and MPH?

profi · « **Reply #12 on:** January 29, 2009, 10:36:12 pm »

The fastest et was a red 66 coupe with white stripes and a big roots style blower hanging well out the bonnet.
I think it run about an 11.8 or 11.5

Im 99% sure we were faster in the mph at 121mp/h

BLKPNY · « **Reply #13 on:** January 30, 2009, 11:55:51 am »

Wow, 120mph?

What did the blown car run? Would have been about 115mph, wouldn't it?

I wonder if Nick witht he maganta 66 coupe will be there?? He runs well into the 10's with a small twist of the bottle.
