Just wanted to apologise to those on the Zclub stand and others that i was planning to meet @ Santa pod on Sunday.

I had some serious personal & financial issues to sort out :( which resulted in a weekend from hell and meaning i wasn't able to attend, absolutely gutted:cry: :cry:

I look forward to meeting & seeing you all again at JAE if not before....

Same here matey, end of the month for me with payday on thursday and the zed isn't in a state to either show or race for another week so no worries :D

:nana2: i went to santa pod loved it took my car down the track for the first time. what a buzz. got into the low 14s which i was told was good because there was 60mph gust straight down the track. won all 3 of my races first one against slick pete then the other two against civic type r,s cant wait to go again.:dance:

Well not quite true!!:slap:

I was first over the line by 0.09 sec. Check out that pink slip!!

I know your ET was better(as it should be) but looked on as a race... I won!!:nana2:

oh yes sorry. i have no idea how to read . maybe next time we go. good to see you there and the others too. look forward to doing it again.

Haha you got owned by an NA!

 

Bet you wernt even using any Nos pete?

thanks that has made me feel real good. but in my defence it was the first time on the strip and i think i had a reaction time of 1.3 seconds and i have got a crappy auto. but well done slick pete a well worthy winner

took my car down the track for the first time.

Be fair, did'nt do bad really under the circumstances, did he??? :slap: :)

thankyou zx-eyes. i was pooping my self on the line for the first time.

He was always going to win :) I bet Pete's reaction time will have been well under a second and I bet he had the soft rubber on!

 

You taken them heavy sub boxes out yet Gaz? Might have bought you the extra time you needed.

thankyou zx-eyes. i was pooping my self on the line for the first time.

 

You're welcome mate, i have no doubt you did better than i could of :( :rofl:

me/ pete

reaction:1.2040/ .2746

60ft:2.5416/ 2.3415

1/4 et 14.8687/ 15.7081

94.27mph/ 89.90

yes i have taken it all out found about 40+ screws in the boot all rusty.

I'm gutted I got called into work or I would have come and had a go, good effort tho Gaz.

So from that you could make it into the 13s with a lot more practice.

that was my worst run my best was 14.8205 but there was a real strong head wind but going to give it a dam good try next time i go.

Yeah I was thinking about the wind, it was against you then?

just a bit they said at one point there were gust up to 60mph straight down the track.

that was my worst run my best was 14.8205 but there was a real strong head wind but going to give it a dam good try next time i go.

 

"If I can get this big lump of metal out, should be able to get down in the 13's" :rofl:

 

 

yep thats a zed engine bay

Were you racing against the wind tho i mean?

i was not racing i was testing.

:)

Gaz you get 10 outta 10 mate for being a good sport and having the courage to take your car out on the black top, especially on Jap Show day as a novice.

You were subjected to a fair bit of fire up road "wind up" by me and on the strip i deliberately sacrificed my ET to "out stage" you. I got in "deep stage" for that run and put all the effort in to reaction time.;)

All in good fun of course as you have realized. Its just a shame a few more members wont come along to play. Its good fun as you have found out.:D:D

I would have loved to have come just a pity it was a big show and the last weekend before pay day otherwise i'd have been down
