reckon a VL with a worn clutch would do well Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Decided to take my car on Friday to Meremere to have a bit of fun and see what it could do not knowing a few other from CT would be there having a run aswell. Traction was the biggest problem of the night for me with some really old 205 semi slicks not helping the cause. Started with a couple of mid to high 13's and managed to drop it as the night went on. The final run of the night resulted in a 12.95 @ 184kph (114mph) which I was pretty happy with considering the lack of traction and a pretty standard engine (RB26) & manual box. Big thanks to Kelvin for the use of the jack etc to change tyres even though it took me an hour (their goes my ambition of being a V8 supercar pitcrew member ) Sorry to hear about your car if you had known earlier I could have helped as I had a couple of spare sets of plugs. Hopefully the next time I give it a go I will get some fresh rubber and a few other tweaks to improve on the time. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

not bad

sweet matt, thats an awesome time, was quite entertaining watching you skate down the track trying to get traction.12.95 is a very good time. You have got the best time so far out of the Hybrid VLs. more intertaining was watching you change the wheels over, dont expect a call from the V8 boys anytime soon...lol Thanks for use of your tools aswell mate.Hopefully see you again soon.

Sweet time Matt I'll add it to the list now

Good to see some quicker times coming through though.

sweet time matt,well done man,you should be stoaked with that,get some fresh rubber and go hard,you need to do a write up on your car too at some stage man!!!!!!!!!

Just stumbled across my stash of time slips, cant believe it was 2003, 8 time slips in the 11's 20 or more in the 12's Time flies...........

what setup were you running back then?

Meh 11s lol

GT35, 18 psi, small Nizpro cam, JD Custom plenum, ET streets (280RWKW) My brother should be on the list also..... he did a 13.6 years ago in his VLT, that was using 2nd gear off the line too. ---------- Post added 20-03-11 at 09:44 ---------- 11's is pretty slow these days aye. Ive thought several times that I should do a cheap drag shell and use my motor in it, but I cant afford to circuit race and drag race

There's a wag shell here haha ....give me some more details on your bros run and I'll put it up

.....Brent likes Sedans Mike lol Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I always said I'd do a wagon next if I doof'd the VL and the shell was stuffed. go the circuit wagon! :P Jason Thurlow - Berlina sedan, RB30ET, RB25DET 5 speed box, AVO stg 2 cooler, AVO cast stainless manifold, custom nonBB T3, 13.5psi, 3.9 Detroit locker BW.
