    Would I have gone much faster without traction control on? I was going to try it out but it started raining.

    All good mate we were last minute to fill someone's spot.

    Yeah we had a good day, it's only Dales second time with car out. We battled with grip all morning and kept dropping tire pressure, I jumped in and ran a 10.72 @ 128mph and then Dale backed it up with a 10.59 @ 129mph.

    All in all a good day, we learnt a bit about the car and constantly improved so have a good idea what it should do at Calder.

    Re: Heathcote - Private Drag Day November 24th

    Awesome results mate. I heard you talking to another guy about continually dropping the tyre pressure.

    Must have been a blast at those speeds.

    I'm already thinking cam and hi stall to try and get lowish 12's

    Mine changed into what I think was 4th a bit before the line and it seemed to slow me down quite a bit. The change felt like it took forever.

    good day, lots of runs and car/engine ran faultlessly after getting beat on all day. just struggled with traction all day, painted lots of black lines.

    still can't complain with 10.59@129mph with 1.62mph.
