As you Melbournians know the whether was a shocker yesterday so I thought that Calder would be quiet so I took the risk and was successfull. Only about 80 cars.

She had nine runs in total.

Best was

ET: 13.11
MPH: 108.01
60" 2.05


Best Mile for the night was 109

She ran on street tyres.
I am wrapt with such a great time with only a small cam and no heads.

12's are around the corner! :bounce:

Here's some piccies.

The STI ran a 13.9 @ 95

The GTP and I weren't even lined up together but they moved him next to me on purpose...I think he saw lion and got a bit scared. He stuffed his launch and ran a 19...lol

Well Done Fabian!! 13.1's is awesome for a daily driver/cruiser!!

Bolt the slicks on and run easy 12's as that 2.05 60' should be around the 1.7~1.8 mark!!

Good luck!!

Just a quick one what tyre preasure are you running and and are you varying it for different air temps??

23-09-2003, 06:10 PM
I was running 35PSI all night.

Should of dropped it down to mid 20's but I think with a 40 series tyre its not gonna make much of a difference.
