Ls1 Textralia Nationals! Cmon, Get On Board!

[hogs]

Evening,

Go to the LS1 NATIONALS FORUM and have a look at what is a fantastic, and maybe FINAL opportunity to watch or compete against some of the countries finest LSX powered machines.:goodjob:

You do not have to own a world beating, fire breathing monster to compete and be part of what may be FINAL LS1 NATIONALS.:confused:

The whole competition is based on the DIAL YOUR OWN time concept, which basically means that a 13 second machine can actually defeat a 9 second car based on the time you submit.:smilesandbanana:

A great couple of days, and maybe the last!

Check out the FORUM, but the dates are 17th and 18th of April at the the very relaxed and friendly venue, HEATHCOTE PARK RACEWAY.


GET ON BOARD FOLKS, WILL BE FUN!!



Cheers,

Hogs,:)

Evening,

At the risk of being accused of "bumping" this thread, would the Mods consider making this a STICKY to assist with the generation of support for, as stated, may well be the last of the LS1 NATIONALS????:bow:

Cheers,

Hogs,:)

[Uncle Tone]

i guess some of us have higher goals in life than to be validated on an internet forum. but if it makes u feel that more important why not :)

Fcuk me mate,Youve been here for nearly 3 years and you dont know whats going on? Sometimes it's best to shut ya trap and learn who's who in the zoo first ;)

[VXXXSS]

yeah i guess ive had more important things to do than to follow the "it" people on the internet. my bad.

[hogs]

Evening,

Gee PAGEY why not actually come down and compete at the NATIONALS, have a crack like most of the acitive members of the FORUM, and meet most of us rather that perpetuate what has been your sad manner for as long I have been a member of the FORUM, ie JAN 2004, and play KEYBOARD DESPERATE / ATTENTION SEEKER,

C'Mon down, bring a car, have some runs, win a trophy, cheque,

OR ?????????

Cheers,

Hogs,:)

[KPWISHN]

:lmao: This place is getting a lot more awesome lately.

Are fuel conservative vehicles allowed? or is this only for hard core performers that run super hard up to the speed limit.

YEAH............... WHAT HE SAID................:goodjob:
Hey Hogs.... Tell em what you won...tell who he's dealing with......:feedtroll:


On a serious note.. looking forward to the nats.. not sure I will be racing or spectating but either way a few of us will be there supporting the event, catching up with a few warriors and talking more shit than we normally do. See you there Hogs..

[toey]

id love to make the trip down but i think for my own safety ill give it a miss (its my first wedding anniversery that weekend)

[hogs]

Evening,

Thanks for the comments TUFFIE, much appreciated.:goodjob:

Yeah, it is, and should be all about putting names to faces from the FORUM, having plenty of fun, sprooking some shit and running some times is a bonus!!

PAGEY is correct in relation to my "Status" or more accurately, "lack of status" on the FORUM at present, and I guess I am a victim of my own "honesty"! :bawl:

That aside, look very forward to the NATS and catching up with a lot of the "DIE HARDS" who rock up every year and make the event what it is.:smilesandbanana:

No, we more than likely will not see PAGEY nor the folk who instigated my ban?:confused:

Take care mate,

Hogs,:)

[Wonky]

I'm going again and I'm gonna beat you this time Hogs, cam or no cam!! :lol:

Nah, just kidding! :D Given the new ute will only be 3 weeks old then it won't be racing but I would like to meet you this time. :)

[macca33]

Yep, the LS1 Nats will be a ripper couple of days. I'll definitely and most honestly be there for a look-see.

I wonder if all the Aristotles of the world will come out of their sandbox to play, or if they will remain hidden in cyberspace, teaching life lessons, whilst relishing their life's accomplishment of being the King of the tuckshop???

Cheers

[icedcoffee11]

i will be heading up havnt driven my car down the 1/4 yet aiming for high 11's shud be a good couple of days

[stepupvy]

ill def be ther watchin cant wait

[Oztrack Tuning]

One concern brought to my attention is the day being swamped with cars since Calder isnt operating and the days racing being overloaded. What are the organizers feelings on this, Heathcote isnt the quickest place when dealing with lots of racers.??

[KCB50L]

I'd enter it if it was in Sydney. don't have the cash laying around for an interstate trip.

[boyley]

Looking fwd to my 1st nationals and meeting the fraternity, also interested in seeing all the cheque-book racers flounder again:rofl:

I havent been to every track in Aus, but most, and Heathcote with Russell pulling the strings is nothing if not fast at putting them down the track. You will get plenty Oz....and good thing you are racing, not talking, we need more racers that can actually race, and if history proves one thing, when it comes to actually racing, Oztrack can race :bow: :)

Don't worry Oz - you can have my turn in line as well once I run out of Gas.:nos:


I reckon it will be a big turnout this year though - wonder how many 220/220 cars will rock up?:lol:

[Martin_D]

He can tune too.......:)

Its beside the point whether Oztrack can or cant tune in the eyes of a handful of keyboard wankers, thats for a different thread for a different bunch of prima-donnas to argue. Boring :teach:

LS1 Drag Nationals is for those that drive their cars, not flap their keyboards of what 'coulda shoulda woulda'....that crap is old hat and one reason why this scene is dying a slow and painful forum death. Leave those tossers to the recreational motorsport of dyno days where they could possibly orchestrate a win for themselves if all the cards fall into place, and leave the real racing to those that 'do' rather than 'talk' at Heathcote :lol: :bow:

Oztrack, enjoy your racing - and I look forward to lining you up and hopefully beating you :)

Well I've already put my name down for this year, and I had a go last year too (only one run, but I had a go).

Not trying to start a "prima donna" argument, just excited about having a better go this year.

[Martin_D]

And thats EXACTLY the attitude that makes the drag nationals a good event :)

[blown ls1]

hi martin
also concerned about track time not on sat but test and tune on fri, has russell had big numbers to his last events? also is the efif running this year ? going to bring the ls1 ford down if its eligable cant wait it will be a great event fr shaw. also will there be a dyno this year?

thanx will

[STATIE]

I can't see it getting too busy on the Friday - usually it's only the die hards there then.

[Martin_D]

No dyno this year, all tuning will be on the track :lol:
(or even better, tune it before you bring it) :eek:

[blown ls1]

No dyno this year, all tuning will be on the track :lol:

by what ive been reading latley that means there will be no tunning then at heathcote, mabe just backyarders tunning?

[hogs]

Evening,

Good to see some "passion" developing in relation to the NATS!!:smilesandbanana:

I think it would be a genuine concern if the LS1 fraternity did not get a fair run on the Friday due to it being an open Test and Tune. Not sure what the set up is in relation to this but I hope this is taken into account!

I have supported the NATS every year apart from number one, where I was a spectator wondering wtf was going on.

Since then, I have observed and particpated in many fanstastic events, and am continually puzzled, frustrated, amazed and pissed off at the number of cynics that pop up and criticise what is a great couple of days.:confused:

MACCA33, PAGEY and any others that I may have taken to task over the years, front up, have a chat and line up beside the "FAMILY WAGON" and embrace the event for what it should be.

A chance to catch up, put names to faces and have some fun.:goodjob:

OBTW, my rear plate is SRH350!

Cheers,

[Wonky]

Evening,

BYE BYE, $$$ NEEDED!

[TIR33D]

I really hope there isn't going to be any bitch fightin down there. I am hoping that we are all just as silly as each other in real life.

Rather than trying to scoop the pool and win the W427 that is offered as 1st prize (oops must be the drugs). I am hoping that this bunch of comrades might teach me a thing or two about 1/4 mile driving. Get to see these hairdryers in action and hear the screams of these blo-boys.

So many here criticise so many things, for every good there is a bad. At least at an event like this you can actually talk to the owners face to face and get their real opinions, then see the results.

Looking forward to it.....

PS What time do the dancin girls start on Friday night

[macca33]

............MACCA33, PAGEY and any others that I may have taken to task over the years, front up, have a chat and line up beside the "FAMILY WAGON" and embrace the event for what it should be..............



Won't be lining my car up at all, as I don't feel the need to abuse my car, nor do I need to have some stories of heroism to pass on to the ever attentive crowd at the tuckshop. However, if others wish to, then it is their prerogative.


Are you sure you want a cuddle though, I thought it was a straight track??????

cheers

[boyley]

Are you sure you want a cuddle though, I thought it was a straight track??????

does that mean my 220 cam is banned :limpy:

Should be good fun in all seriousness.

[redss]

Dad and I will be there. Fresh slicks and front runners bought, big brakes being removed for the weekend and std ones put back in place- getting ready to try and keep up with the competition! Looking to turn 12.5@127mph into 10.XX@130+mph with the new rubber and feed in a little more boost... time will tell.

We'll be heading down from central west NSW. Looking forward to a great event.

See ya there.

Pete

[FITZY777]

I will be there for my first time, but unfortunatley only a taking pics and video.

Had all intentions of racing, but "shit happens", so it will have to be next time.

Look forward to meeting a few more of you fella's, will have my car there so if anyone sees me in Bendigo, shout out G'Day.

Cheers

Fitzy

[TOYLS1]

it will be my first time at the event and cant wait!

You don't have to abuse your car at all - just drive it like it's supposed to be driven - take it to your normal shift point & shift, how is that abuse? - only difference is you will be doing it safely, legally & off the streets & I guarantee you will have fun doing it too.

I have NEVER seen anyone have a few runs & not enjoyed themselves.

[hogs]

G'Day,

Well said Greg.:goodjob:

Nerves?:confused:

Hey WONKY,

Hope it all comes together and you do have a machine for the weekend, be good to see!

To be honest mate, I'm all for watching people race, but I'm simply not that into running my own car - especially this one and having the possibility of breaking something. SWMBO is already at the end of her tether with spending on this thing. I've been fast before, so can see no need to now. I'll certainly enjoy the event though.

cheers

[Wonky]

Hey WONKY,

Hope it all comes together and you do have a machine for the weekend, be good to see!

Thanks Hogs but only picked up the Wonky Ute yesterday and the Wonkymobile was driven away today by its new owner. No way I'm racing the ute with about 1,000km on it. :eek:

See you there

[hogs]

Evening,

Looks like there may not be too much "SAVAGERY" but quite a bit of "OPULANCE"!:rofl:

Still would like to line up beside you MACCA in my puny little WAGOON!:goodjob:

HSV build tuff stuff so I have heard, put some faith in mate?:)

It's all about fun, doing it off the street and catching up!

C'Mon!!

Cheers,

Hogs,:)

[macca33]

You sure you haven't been watching too many Grease re-runs? 400m isn't that important in the big scheme of things. I'm sure that you will beat me, if that is what you're concerned about. But, if you really want to 'line them up,' I'll endeavour to park beside you in the car-park.

cheers

[Rub]

lol getting soft in your old age macca? :)

[Oztrack Tuning]

Is there anyone taking bets at Heathcote.
I will be racing the best street car that HSV-105 can line up next to me.
Anyone like to start the odds. VE GenTT BB A6 1800kg plus. ET Drag Radials.

I also have a Blown LS7 to compare to as well. Happy to be beaten by this one though since our workshop multinational built its engine.

We also have a few NA cars that will be ready to race as well.

Plus a couple that will hopefully go mid to low10s.

All will be logged at the strip as well :) and tuned at the track to suit the conditions.

[BlownLS7]

hey steve,
im sure the raceing will be tops, i want a handicap on .2 as my beast weighs more than yours? shame there isnt 3 lanes so i could get Will at the same time.

cheers

[zorro]

'genuine' 600+ cant need too much of a headstart mate........

[Oztrack Tuning]

It will be fun to see the outcomes. I hope we can all hookup well enough to do their outputs justice. Im 100% in favour of seeing yours get the best result possible. Looking forward to it. Im not sure if Pauls car with your old blower on it is coming, it is going nicely as well. It has the same converter as mine now and 2.92s plus Higgins Heads.

Willems car i hope will be quicker than mine as long as mine does a 10 :) its the only chance it will get in 2009. It has a few psi of boost available against the brake at 3000rpm from there in less than 1.0s it will have over 10psi. I just hope thats enough for a 1.6 60 footer at around 1830kg then whatever 440rwkw will make in mph.

[zorro]

agree Oz, just had a play with the slide rule and it shows a close number. theoretically if all goes 100% that is

Evening,

MACCA!

Well there ya go.

You have to actually "enter as a participant" to park where I will be, ie the PITS, so I spose your suggestion is not possible!:confused:

I am sorry, but I wrongly assumed that given your long term involvement with the FORUM, you had attended the NATS previously. My mistake.

Given that you mentioned that you "Have gone fast before", what have your previous track cars been, just out of interest?

[Oztrack Tuning]

Dus won last year Statie with a 220 cam - so we didnt want to upset people who pedal gas guzzling farting cheap imposters of race cars - by bringing it down again. So this time its back with heads and a 232 234 LSK cam on 111.

In fact we have at least one 220 cam. If you keep being smart we will build an altered dragster 346 with a 220 220 112 cam and higgins ported L92 heads, Edelbrock L92 manifold and run it on methanol and use direct nitrous injection to the max. Fastest 220 cam in the world.

ps. We have new custom cam that i wont be sharing the specs of. Maybe HSV105 will want to install one in each of his cars and have me tune it on his dyno making sure i load up every load cell including the WOT ones for 10s at a time. Then never EVER log it at the track.

[BlownLS7]

its a shame HSV-105 doesnt have a car that could compete with ya Oz,it would make for an interesting race,

cheers

There you go......

Well, I did own a few Matchbox cars that went fairly quick, as well as a Tamiya Hornet

I was going to post some other witty diatribe, yet imagine that your intellect would not enable you to comprehend it all. I grew up and left school, thus, do not see the need to impress the young'uns to gain satisfaction in life. :goodjob:

That said, I'll simply ignore you from now on in.

Also, please do not PM, email or send any messages via carrier pigeon - we know where that all leads.

Yeh the slower cars do have a bit of an advantage in DYO racing don't they:D - good to see you've has seen the light on the cam - the 232/234's are nice street cams.

Only one 220? I thought we would be swamped by them - I agree putting one in an altered is probably the only way of making it go fast.:yup:

Always up for a Challenge Steve.

The thing to remember is that my 2 cars are set up for circuit racing rather than a 400 metre straight line - I actually find it more challenging going around corners - but each to their own.

Given that yours is set up for the quarter mile your challenge is the equivalent of me challenging you to a race around Sandown - which is pointless.

Lets make it street car v's street car both of which will run on street tyres rather than you with your Drag radials.

Now that's a fair challenge.

[TUFFIE]

Ahhhh you gotta love the nats.....:smilesandbanana: Brings out the child in everone...

Now kids make sure you line up nice and straight or else you won't be allowed on the bus...

Now that's a fair challenge.

Most cars competing are set up for street use with the only change a set of MT streets. With the handicap system you stand as much chance of beating OZ as anyone. I'm sure you'd have a nice set of race slicks you could bourne for the exercise Mark?

ET Streets are fine by me Boyley - I'll just be running Pirelli road tyres.

With all the talk about Dyno v Street Tuning and that Steve has thrown the challenge out there - we should be on street tyres and not drag specific tyres.I guess that ET Street radials fit the criteria and the spirit of the challenge.

You couldn't exactly tune a car on the street with Drag radials fitted now could you. :confused:

No, thats a good point and one would suggest leaving them off the dyno also:)

Should be good for all I believe, leave the keyboard behind and meet and greet everyone on here that's up for it. I'm personally looking forward to seeing all the street metal on the day and enjoying everyones pride and joy's in the flesh.

[zorro]

You couldn't exactly tune a car on the street with Drag radials fitted now could you. :confused:

According to some QLD people you can :rofl:

Anyway this should be a good one guys, doesnt matter what tires you are on as its not H2H racing. Get some consistency and go for the win..... easy

I've seen 16sec cars win DYO rounds with ease, couple of 11sec capable rigs trying to get street tires down the track would be a good one to watch. Come on guys get this one a go-er!!!!

[STATIE]

ET Streets are fine by me Boyley - I'll just be running Pirelli road tyres.

With all the talk about Dyno v Street Tuning and that Steve has thrown the challenge out there - we should be on street tyres and not drag specific tyres.I guess that ET Street radials fit the criteria and the spirit of the challenge.

ET STREET's are hardly a street tyre - both run RWD & genuine street tyres - no semi-comps etc & it should be a good race no matter how much power either of you have.

Quote from one of our MODERATORS

"Well, I did own a few Matchbox cars that went fairly quick, as well as a Tamiya Hornet

I was going to post some other witty diatribe, yet imagine that your intellect would not enable you to comprehend it all. I grew up and left school, thus, do not see the need to impress the young'uns to gain satisfaction in life. :goodjob:

That said, I'll simply ignore you from now on in.

Also, please do not PM, email or send any messages via carrier pigeon - we know where that all leads."

Gee,:confused:

If you follow back a few posts you will see that I merely stated some facts and provided some accurate insight into the entry protocol for the Nats.

To get this response back is ????:bawl:

However, I feel it does provide a fairly accurate insight into why the NATS does appear to not be supported as enthusiastically as is deserves1

We may ask why?

It is a fantastic couple of days, which richly deserve to be give as much support over the FORUM as possible, but as witnessed, many of the "KEYBOARD W.........!, who do not actually attend and participate do not
give a fig.:flipoff:

Sorry for the rant, and if the system is predictable, I may disppear from the Forum as a result of my honest appraisal of this situation???:bawl:

Always up for a Challenge Steve.

The thing to remember is that my 2 cars are set up for circuit racing rather than a 400 metre straight line - I actually find it more challenging going around corners - but each to their own.

Given that yours is set up for the quarter mile your challenge is the equivalent of me challenging you to a race around Sandown - which is pointless.

Lets make it street car v's street car both of which will run on street tyres rather than you with your Drag radials.

Now that's a fair challenge.

this is just so amusing. i built steves car and so im just wondering which part is drag racing set up. is it the tien coil overs (no) is it the tru trac (dont think so) is it the twins by street tunner u would no better i supose.is it the 292 diff ratio, is it the stally yes but is a stally eaqual to a race car ? wow" i think with enought money and 4 weeks u would be able to front something to run 10s ? on street radials or why not street radials ?

thanx will

Hogs,

Put your tinfoil hat back on, the voices are making you paranoid again.
You specifically called someone out, they responded that they weren't interested and why, and you continued to question and push the issue, so you got the response you got.
Being a Moderator has nothing to do with it so I don't know why you even mention it. You threw a handful of stones at another USER, so a rock was thrown back. Stop pretending you are all innocent afterwards, enough of the "a Mod is targetting me" paranoia and just get back to the thread topic, which is a discussion with people who are actually racing at the Nats.

PIG FAT - oh how rude. We all know you only driving that truck cause it has air-con and power windows.

My mechanic has faith in the car, just thinks I am a bit hard on the gear - he hasn't even seen me on drugs..... Guess if I need a spot on that trailer I can just slum it and bring home your ford. I will make sure I bring a G-string so I can drive it.

Is there anyone taking bets at Heathcote.
I will be racing the best street car that HSV-105 can line up next to me.
Anyone like to start the odds. VE GenTT BB A6 1800kg plus. ET Drag Radials.

I also have a Blown LS7 to compare to as well. Happy to be beaten by this one though since our workshop multinational built its engine.

We also have a few NA cars that will be ready to race as well.

Plus a couple that will hopefully go mid to low10s.

All will be logged at the strip as well :) and tuned at the track to suit the conditions.



MT DR’s you say :diddy:


IF any Queenslander wants to kindly loan me a car trailer? I WILL Run against Your 440rwkw VE on pump gas / Full Exhuast and MT DR's..................seems Willowbank wasn't enough of a lesson for you Steve :confused:

Perhaps you should put up your own odds against me in lieu of DD dyno rwkw numbers ?, that way some kindly Queenslander is guarranteed a healthy return on there trailer rental and Mr D can run in his new TD Prado.

[Oztrack Tuning]

There was no lesson at Willowbank. You raced once before the scehduled start time and did a 10 and parked before anyone could see. I think there was a lesson there Mark.

My current car vs your current car would be lining up a luxury car built for daily driving and a race car. Mine will be trying to get to Melbourne on a tank 830km with all my family on board and then it will arrive at Heathcote and hope to see a 10s. If people have faster cars good on them, ive done lots of competition in my life so i dont car if people beat my car. Better though to beat it in something comparable. As a reward for anyone that beats my car i will issue them a free Oztrack Tuning sticker. I would like Mark HSV105 to line me up in an ex-Perkins race car and beat me. That would be fun to compare, im happy to race Statie's ute as well. It was one of my favorite cars last year, as was HSV105s show car.

Street car V Street car on street tyres Steve - Fair Challenge and you can even run your MT Street Radials.

As for the "show car" is that the Black GTO that I have raced around Phillip Island,Winton,Sandown and Bathurst over the last 12 months since completing it.Trying to think when I've had it at a car show :confused:

As for the Ex-Perkins car do you really think it's worth stuffing a $7500 Carbon clutch racing a circuit car down the quarter mile - I had the same problem with the GTO at Heathcote last year and I'm not about to make the same mistake twice.

quote-240s vs peeshooter the big cam ute should be fine to drive to the race track (quote raced and driven home) by all your counts that i recall .
however if u need that trailor it has now been offered by one fellow qld f--k how good is heathcote racing this year going to be?

[Oztrack Tuning]

It wasn't a dig at the car HSV105, it was a brilliant looking car and im sure its well setup to be used on the circuit. Mine should go well considering its weight but it really is heaviliy biased toward being a nice daily driver, no hint of it being quick to any non car enthusiasts who ride in it ie. older family members etc. It just takes less throttle to get up to the flow of traffic.

My view on racing is you line up and do your best. If you succeed then the time the car does is like measuring your own weight on bathroom scales. You get what you get.

Only a couple of weeks of innuendo, challenges, and he said-she said before nats time! :D

Does he like his Pie Served Hot or Cold?

cheers paul



Please explain.. what's so Hypocritical about his posts? I think he's making perfect sense...All he did was ask for a fair comparrision... and it just went downhill from there....onething you will notice from any threads is that HSV105 always backs himself first and will carry out whatever he say'e he will do.

There may be a few ppl eating some of that famous Humble pie come the 18th April..

[markone2]

this is just so amusing. i built steves car and so im just wondering which part is drag racing set up. is it the tien coil overs (no) is it the tru trac (dont think so) is it the twins by street tunner u would no better i supose.is it the 292 diff ratio, is it the stally yes but is a stally eaqual to a race car ? wow" i think with enought money and 4 weeks u would be able to front something to run 10s ? on street radials or why not street radials ?

Evening,

Please excuse me if this has been covered previously!

But, TONE, could we please have the definitive answer for my question, which is,

"ARE YOU GOING TO RUN YOUR CAR AT THE NATS?:confused:

As stated, I apologise if the answer has already been give.

That aside, keep up the good work fellas, and I am sure we will have a fantastic couple of days.
:smilesandbanana:
Cheers,

[vyc4b]

Evening,



Are you Keen or what Hogs........

I don't think UT would be game enough to run your open/unopened Wagon at the Nats...........apparently you won the BOTS class last year.

[Wonky]

But, TONE, could we please have the definitive answer for my question, which is,

"ARE YOU GOING TO RUN YOUR CAR AT THE NATS?:confused:

Methinks the answer to that both used to be in Melbourne - Buckley's and Nunn! :lol:

Little Birdy told me that a certain black GTS was in a certain Oakleigh tyre shop today being trial fitted with some 18s with slicks

[JezzaB]

God I would love to run the old ute at the LS1 Nats this year again and sink a few and have a laugh with all the boys at night time but I cant make it this year! :( Hope everyone has a great time.

Well thats what the little birdy told me!

[hsv-105]

Still waiting for OZ and BlownLS7 to confirm they are willing to run their cars with ET Street Radials against my Coupe4 with the Factory tyres.

It ran a 12.1 at Heathcote last time so it should be easy for you guys. :)

[SS Enforcer]

I think Steve will be running 18" Et Streets on his car not sure about Blown Ls7.

cheers

[BlownLS7]

hi mark,

i can conirm i will be racing as per my entry, Factory tyres up front, 16" ET Drag Radials on the rear.

cheers paul

Ferry Booked
Hotel booked

LSSR final booked:goodjob:

[TAKEITEZ]

go rob go :)

DCW is proud to send you on your way with a wave and the best of wishes for your title aspirations... hope you get that 11 out of the baby cam barge... see what the track and weather can turn up compared to our facilities and altitude...

hehehe

[Oztrack Tuning]

Yes Mark
Mine will be racing with the 18" variety of the MT ET radials and ET110. But it will be idling at 600rpm! and it hopefully will have made it to Melbourne on a tank of gas with my entire family in the car, kids watching DVDs in the back.

I enjoy challenges and couldnt give a shit if anything beats it. It will do what it can do, but i think it can do a 10 and its the cars only chance this year.

I see Martin has the trophys ready for you guys, after the measure up results

[hogs]

Evening,

Thanks for the positive comment VYC4B, much appreciated.

Yes I did win the BOTS section last year and was a close runner up two years prior.

I am very proud of the fact and have the Trophies in a place of pride at home.
I would be happy to bring them along if you would like to admire them, and unfortunately I have spent the prize money on the Family Wagon.

Your ride sounds pretty special, well done! But I cannot find any times on the data base or timeslips? WIll this be you first time mate? Happy to assist in any way!

Be good to have a run against such a tuff machine!!!

If I am incorrect, what time has the GTS run previously?:confused:

Cheers,

Hogs,:)

[vyc4b]

Evening,

G'day Hogs, your quite welcome mate....
I don't think I'll be running the Special GTS at the Nats this year, I'm happy with Dyno slips atm.
If however I do change my mind, you'll be the first person I look for to steer it as I'm far too tame for such a machine.......

I haven't previously ran it before, but I do feel rather special driving it down to Safeway to pick up bread and Milk on the W-ends.
The best slip I have is 301.7rw {with the bonnet open}.
Look forward to seeing you in Action mate.......

Cheers,

vyc4b,:headbang:

Evening,

Gee, what a suprise!:confused:

Thought you had the track time also.
Oh well, each to their own as has been stated before.

Nice to get the full picture, please say hello at the Nats.:goodjob:

I am not hard to spot, one of a very few Wagons, no workshop support, and just there for the fun!:smilesandbanana:

You should have a go, you may well enjoy driving the GTS rather than some tech on the DYNO!

Cheers,

[TIR33D]

That wheelchair wagon is a scary thing. I am amazed he is so quick. If you have a look at the controls in there it would scare you too.
Still I admire that life continues and he races.:goodjob:
Was funny to hear the comments about the lone wheelchair in the staging lanes on Weds night.

[boyley]

Just looking at the heathcote website and noticed there is no break out:confused:

Can someone please explain this to me

http://www.#########################/

Also what time does the track open Friday?

[hogs]

Evening,

Spot on WONKY, "Tailights" will be the best view I will get in that situation, however, it is DYO as we all know, and anything can happen.

However, full credit to Brett for what must be a challenging drive, look forward to catching up, excuse the pun!
How are things going with the Ute mate?

Given that I have gone to LSSR, and will be very much on the bottom of the food chain in this bracket, my only saving grace will be the advantage of the DYO set up.

Take care mate,:goodjob:

We left Adelaide at 4am this morning, drove the Gen-TT AWD Adventra over to the LS1 Drag Nationals (750km or so) put some Bendigo V-power in at, and at 2300kg without my or the mrs luggage it ran 11.7 @ 124mph on the stock 346 with 6psi boost. Nice, and the fastest wagon so far, so tomorrow its turn the wick up, get the big street tyred truck up around 130mph and show the Coupe 4 boys how its done :lol:
