Seen some good mods, and was good to see you guys "in real life". I can say ill defo be attending another meet, and ill be there for the one in oct - weather permitting!!!

(Where do i purchase the pulsing brake bulbs from??)

If you search for the recent thread on fog brake conversion it was mentioned in there mate.

Shame i missed you mate

looks like you had great weather for a change

well done Stav, i am sure there will be improvement next time, not as easy as it looks is it
did any one else do any runs ??

Good to meet some of you guys too and see the cars, some cracking engine mods although it makes me want to spend even more money!!

Glad i wasn't the only one to catch the sun too hopefully next time i'll be more prepared and be able to get my car in the stand too.

I'm a bit of a lurker here and don't really post since I've had my Lexus, but I saw you lot on my way back down from each 1/4 mile run, I think a few of you saw me and wondered why you hadn't seen me before around your club bit, but I'd gone down with me old crew! Mine was the black IS300 with square rear plate and sports grill if anyone recalls! (This was earlier on the sunday)

I came had a look a bit later on, some nice looking metal you've all got .

Should say hello next time really!

Hi mate,

I did see you going down the strip and looked out for you as i have an IS 300 too and don't see many of them about, althoug mine was in the car park this time

Russell

Yep, don't see many. Especially not many IS300s going down 1/4 mile

Have to admit mine did get a lot of attention and people wanting to talk about it, look under bonnet e.t.c. Mostly admiring though I would hope! I was camping with my Celica lot, car was there saturday night and on sunday I just parked it in public after I was done with my dragging.

Next time eh!

Cool, next time for sure,

Gord. Does your reg end ORD


I think i may have seen you going past Mosley Hollins high school on the sat. Saw a green lex, with a similar reg that would match your name!

Couple of pic's from my great day out

Yes mate, but it would have been Simon driving it at the time

There was also a GS (Mk 1 I think ?) doing some runs, although not someone from the club stand.

All I've done is add the sports grille and have new snazzier plates made up, other than that totally standard.

Yes, I very much enjoyed the runs! I'm actually pretty pleased with my times also, pretty much exactly 16 seconds, on all four runs. Good reactions too!

some mobile video and pictures
sorry for the poor quality images...

nice meet anyway thanks to johnboy our event organizer

Thinking about it, i think i should of also done the drag, just to show what Stav's car can really do.

Also, i saw an M3 only complete a time of 14.3 seconds!

It also looks like you were sleeping at the lights too !




Good photos from the day though !!!

It is a Subura with only one head lamp! Is that so more air can enter the engine??

[quote name='Davros' post='677617' date='Jun 22 2009, 08:39 PM']It also looks like you were sleeping at the lights too ! [/quote]

For some reason i couldnt get traction in the lane, twice i ran that lane (against the same car incidently) and twice i couldnt get traction.

Yeah it was stripped out and running Low 12's! pretty impressive

By the way, what’s going on with the Dyno vid ?

Are they adjusting the settings for your car, because it looked like they didn’t actually did a run in the vid ?
