Guest esky Guests Posted 30/12/03 09:48 PM Posted 30/12/03 09:48 PM Im sorry I wasn't clear enough, but it's so f#^king boring to see 200 LS1s driving in a straight line for 400m. And you know what, I'd find 200 XR6T drag racing boring too.

Both sentiments are reflected strongly in each companies marketing. Not a criticism, just an observation. I wouldn't mind discussing this point. I'm not saying I disagree with your comment. Can you expand on your comment a bit more?BTW good luck in lion territoy.

Would be good to see the skylines etc showing the LS1's how it's done though

There are numerous motorsport events held by HDT/HSV clubs around Australia but very few by the Ford guys.People, your car doesn't need to be modified - just compare your times to other like vehicles.I turned up to a HSV/ Monaro/ Late model camira club drag day and I was one of two Fords out of approx 80 cars. When the unmodified T ran a 13.95 pass they were all impressed, especially when compared to other standard cars that were there.If you think your car is better than their's then get out there and show 'em.
Guest esky Guests Posted 31/12/03 03:00 AM Posted 31/12/03 03:00 AM If you think your car is better than their's then get out there and show 'em. I dont think that's the problem. A 1/4mile time doesn't mean you're better.I think people just dont want to thrash their (sub 12month old) car.

I'm hoping to be there, it should be great fun with a lot of nice cars. It would be good to get a few "T's" to Heathcote to see how the various stages of mods compare to similar stages of develpoment on the holdens and imports. Geea.

If you find the drags boring, then fine. Why bother to comment? If you dont want to thrash your prestige performance car....then....really....get over it. Its an Aussie built plugger. Beat it, the thing will probably go better!Those that want to enter, please feel free! Edited 31/12/03 06:42 AM by Street Tuner
