hammoud there is nothing wrong with calder the track will be preped up very well. If darren daphillipo can do a full pass in his rail im sure anyone can. There were **** loads of cars at the last meet running 7's!!! If your wheel spinning this weekend dont blame the track, sort your car out!!!

Darrens TF drag would of no way been at its full potential, that track was good for 7.1's that day, All the doorslamers where blowing the tyres off after 60ft mid track shaun

thats the issue where not talking 2 speeds here its cracking 5 gears....its prepped to the 60ft awesome but the track quality decreases as it goes down. i worked there for two years, i know that track well...look at the video of acker, almost went into a wall with the auto...looking forward to it but none the less

But you'd know that, right hamoud??? ---------- Post added 19-01-11 at 23:56 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by JETLGD [View Post] Darrens TF drag would of no way been at its full potential, that track was good for 7.1's that day, All the doorslamers where blowing the tyres off after 60ft mid track shaun Darren's car went .874 to the 60' on the back wheels, and 3.38 to half track, at only 200mph.... I'd say that's pretty close to full potential... Top Fuellers normally do 3.2 average to half track, which a low 4.60 is the result.... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

What makes you think he's not gonna pull the level 5 times at this meet? Acker dropped tranny oil mate hence what happened. Don't blame the track. Having said that if you cop bad tyre shake and don't come off it who can you blame the track for holding into it? I guess the accidents a while back in Sydney at WSID (best track in Aus) with those 3 RX3's can be blamed on the track? Nothing wrong with the track, if it's an issue then back it down with an auto and pull the power down. Many others have run ridiculous figures on small tyres here in Melbourne.

this is funny, for once we are having track arguments, not nitrous or stroker claims... every1 should wait til afta the meet b4 any1 knocks the track, could b 40 degrees or raining yet? a nice 25 degrees and no humidity would b nice tho Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

imo Calder is just as good as the others. if big names like Rahayem, Signorelli and Wedlock are coming down then i am sure Adam has it under control!! I'm just hanging to see how different the car is going to react with the new engine/transmission as the ass end is staying the same as when it ran 8.0.

i dont think the track will be an issue for the cars this weekend, being the biggest meeting melbourne has ever seen, the owner will be prepping the track like never before. too many big names to disappoint for a bad track so i would be definitely giving it everything come race day! where are ther parties at in melbourne????? Im going to need a local to show us through ALL the clubs and bars!! we have 3 days to hit 30 bars and get 2 cars to PB.. big ask!
