11.9@111mph the little Celica even surprised me, makes me almost want to wash it.

Don't wash it !! :eek:

It's taken years to get it to this point where it is so aerodynamically efficient !! :p :p

How much gas if any ??
Not that it matters, just curious....
I thought as a guess you'd run an easy 12, 11.9 is awesome !! ;)
Now i suppose you want to go faster ?? :)

Well done brother...... ;)

any other rotars out there?

GOTAGO had a new driver and he looked real nervous in the staging lanes,but with a car like that can you blame him.
Sam's performance red Commodore ute ran into the 11s with slicks, still needs more traction.
That guy with the GAY looking pink Torana{XUI-355} ran a 11.6.:gay: :gay: :gay: :gay:

firdup rx3 ran a high nine 9.7 i think at 147mph, looked a real handfull. dont know about the new piant shceme on gasngo but it dosnt really suit it.

FIRDUP looked awsome and i don't even like Rotors, it is one handfull of a car.

GOTAGO ran a 9.4@110mph on an earlier pass, lifting off at half track, then back on the pedal before lifting off again, hence the 'low' trap speed. The thing is an animal. The 10.1 run had the driver backing off at half track, with a problem developing. This car launched fast and hard. I can't wait to see it on a full pass.

I think XUI-355 will still get a bit quicker with suspension mods and slicks,he also seamed a bit intrested in the NOS after my car raced. :p :p :p :p

v8celica were you parked near me under the carport in the pit area?. I parked right near you in a burgandy 200sx with guages on the bonnet if thats you your car is certainly a sleeper. dissapointed with my runs but have to go back and better it with some sticky rubber and half decent 60ft times lol.

7HEAVN, interesting avatar. What Sigma do you have?

I had my video camera at the meet, but didn't get too much. There weren't many quick cars there. V8celica, I got one run of yours, though.

Hey NXTIME don't own the sigma anymore sold to a guy down the road from me actually . I've got a burgandy 200sx now with chrome zepters I gave it a couple of runs on wednesday night pretty dissapointing times but have to work on those 60ft'ers.

NXTIME
09-03-02, 03:05 PM
7HEAVN, If you don't mind me asking, what is done to the 200? and what times did you run? PM me if you wish. I saw a purple 200SX with a nice front mount...best time of 12.51.

That Sigma in your avatar wouldn't happen to be your old sigma would it? :D

Nar mine is stock except for abit more boost and turbo back exhaust ,was the one with the guages on the bonnet probably the slowest 200 there lol .But that should change soon hopefully Mainly was my fault I can never seem to get a clean run at that place .

BUZ-11T
09-03-02, 06:28 PM
NXTIME: that 200 your refering to is ASX 747!

NXTIME
09-03-02, 07:22 PM
Yes, BUZ 11T, that's the one. He had a problem on his earlier runs...apparently an intercooler hose kept blowing off. He got it together for a 12.51 run, I didn't get the mph, though. Anyone know?

BUZ-11T

not toos sure!
Apparentely he was slicked up!
