[The_Senator]

Nice work, Gav.....

Less "dusty" track and some cool night air and that time will be better again..

[SSZ.]

Do you didnt gav ...!!!STOP HIDING!!!. hahaha

good job mate.

[Drizt]

Had a successful night at WAW with my daily

12.610 @111.66mph
1.995 60ft

Pretty happy with full stereo, no cam or converter, 20`s
Confident of maybe another 1/10th just in the shift points

What mods mate? Oh and car?

[The_Senator]

Gav's car is a VE SS Series 2... Auto

OTR.. Tune.. Exhaust... That's it.

[Drizt]

Damn, that is plenty rapid for those mods.

[Wonky]

Damn, that is plenty rapid for those mods.

Agreed! Bloody quick! What tyres as they obviously grip well! My cars have never cracked a sub 2.0 60ft, though I hope to whenever I end up going next with some MTs.

Achilles ATR Sports. is what i put on it last time for him i think

[The_Senator]

I too am running the ATR SPORTS and have a 1.9 60 footer.. For a cheaper tyre, they grip up really well...

Dave (tre-cool) also ran them on his VE to a get a 10s pass - so they can't be too bad!

[Tre-Cool]

there are a surprisingly good tire for the price, they get real sticky on the dyno after a couple of pulls too.

my ve is retired from racing now, it's going back to stock to be sold. got 2 dedicated drag cars to finish off.

I have them on my ute and reckon they are great for the money.

Rick Crawford, a tuner in the states who does a lot of work on G8s went 10.59 NA last week. He is a big advocate of small cams and has done a lot of R&D on l92 heads. Think his current one is around 223/231.

Dave, were you running the older ATR sports or the Sport 2?
Looking forward to a night with a bit cooler air too, would be magic to see the mph in the 112`s

Have you given up on that 9 dave after coming so close.

[Tre-Cool]

Have you given up on that 9 dave after coming so close.

same motor is going into a ve dragcar shell, just not made my mind up on keeping it blown or going turbo's. have told my brother that if he builds a 402 for his ve, he can use my blower. (car is at my place anyway, so i can drive it. hehe)

[Xjas]

Finally got my lazy ass to the test and tune today at Eastern Creek.

Ran a best of 12.763@113mph, pretty happy with the result since I haven't drag raced for nearly 10 years and its my first time racing a manual.

Car specs are;
Full weight 2008 VE SSV M6
VCM OTR, 214/225 cam, headers, cats and a 2.5 inch cat back with stock rear cans, 10% UDP, everything else stock including clutch.
Bridgestone Potenza 245/40/19 tyres.

Should also add the car has XA coilovers.

+1

In my reading on reviews on them they're not generally regarded as a good performance tyre, but I guess stickiness for drags and performance are two different things?
