Chris Davey Forums Junkie Location: sunny coast, qld Registered: October 2002	Jamboree this year Mon, 19 September 2005 06:31 Hey guys, don't know how many people went from here. I had a great time and met a couple of new people. I was entered in ET2 as my car is too light for Sport RWD. Scrutineering said it was fine until they checked that it had a 4 cylinder (1jz corona) Had a good time racing on Saturday and then got to watch the hardcore guys in the arvo and night. I qualified with a backing off 13.76@103mph with a 2.54 50ft . My best MPH was 108.5 so the car isn't making as much power as it should. That equates to around 210rwkw @15psi. I worked out that I badly need a decent stall converter and also taller diff gears. (stock stall and 4.6:1 diff ratio) I had to change into OD before the finish line which I thought may have happened but wasn't exactly sure. Once it goes into OD it doesn't want to rev anymore and just sits at 5200rpm as verified by datalogger. Sundays racing came and I thought I was lined up with a fairly regular wrx but instead was matched with a crazy vw that dialled in 10.55 and got towed in! I got a decent reaction time (for my standards) and wound it out. was .24 off my dial in so I was very lucky as the vw ran a 10.466 so broke out by .004 Was good to see how fast 130mph is. And the chute he has worked bloody awesome. Pulled up a lot quicker than my car from 108mph. Next round was against a wrx and I stuffed up as didn't get enough revs off the line (not that I could get much anyway) bogged down more than usual and was chasing hard but the 60ft time was even slower than usual so I was out for the day. I didn't get to see 1jz-747 run but he qualified with a 10.9 but my friend said he got knocked out in the first round. I am sure he will clarify. Met Craig who owns GIHOOK and that car is a real quality piece of work. Met Dori Dori who was driving the cyborg for the weekend but was having weird problems. Also met the guy who owns the 2jz Mercedes that has been posted around here a couple of time. He was running 13.7's on 10psi with a near stock 2j. I was out putting my headlight back in when Pac ran 6.94@194 in the mx6 so I was pissed at that! But my mate got it on camera so that was good. Overall, had a great time and learnt a lot about my car and will be running better times by next year *ps hope I didn't forget anyone that I met as I have terrible memory* [Updated on: Mon, 19 September 2005 06:33] [Report message to a moderator]
