Hey O. thanks for the tip on installing the fittings for the purge! NO more leaks and it works the way it's supposed to.

Thanks.

Mostly just basic safety. Brakes that work, lugnuts are tight, battery is tied down, nothing leaks, etc. For some of the faster cars, there are additional items required, such as water w/ water wetter in the rad, driveshaft loop for rear drive cars with slicks etc. Check out the south island straight line racing association website for a full list.

I was a little nervous my first time out to Western. My first race I was up against an AWD Talon. I thought he was going to school me out the hole. Then we raced... and he never once had the lead.

Also, whoever is bragging about the 1.9s 60' time... I have also done that on street tires on my RWD car. 1.9 doesn't prove anything about AWD.

I'd thought I'd just mention, just incase anyone doesn't know, or wont get told this at the track. . If you are in the TOWER lane, you have to stop and WAIT for the person in the PIT lane to TURN FIRST. Just so we don't have any accidents. Cya ALL there

Oh wait, you wanna be a cool fast kid instead of going out to enjoy yourself and have fun.

Old manifolds got butchered.

I dont see the point in drag racing unless I have a fast car to race.

What am I gonna race, my 160hp Impreza? My junker rally car?

EDIT: Screw it, Ill bring the rally junker down. I just hope i dont need to reverse it anywhere... Do you generally need reverse at the track at all?

Even the 160hp impreza would be fun. In the pits reverse might help a lil, no pull through parking.
