Another great drag day, i only managed 2 runs before i called it a day with some issues, but there was some great machinery there, the rotary viva was awesome, just shaking it down for now but a great site to watch nonetheless, i cant for the life of me remember the chaps name with the black suburu legacy, but unreal springs to mind. 9.888. what a run. @stevieturbo will know. Edit, Michael White.

All in all a fantastic day with 2 beetles making the finals, ill get some pics up later.

Micheal white. just over 750 bhp i think.

 

[56oval]

Yes it was, absolutely awesome. From the aircooled drag day it wasnt hard to see that the car would go 9's at some point.

 

[PhilM]

anyone know what sort of times the ECC starlet ran?

[MTKelly]

Was happy with my car, finished second in my class on my first time out.

[56oval]

Great pics, sadly i think this cloud of smoke spelled the death of a missfiring subaru

whoops cant share the pics.

 

[56oval]

My first run, poor start and a greasy track, missfire towards the end of the run, which unfortunately got worse so i parked it after two runs, more work for the winter

 

[MTKelly]

The sound of your bug was amazing, caught me sleeping on the line anyway lol.

 

[56oval]

Shame we couldnt have got another few runs, i think you said you ran a 1.7 60ft in that car, that is seriously impressive for such a heavy car.

Heres tsar sh*tting his caks as the rotary viva gets it all out of shape, to be fair he was miles in front lol.
