Hey Adrian/Frankie, I just sold my spare evo gearbox to Zaloov in the yellow awd coupe like mine. He's going to get the box fitted today and it appears he'll make it to Powercruise. He's running a 2.3 stroker with GT35R so you'll have someone to play with 
The good news is now I have some cash to finally get my coupe tuned so you two bitches look out lol :thumbsup: .
Frankie, I'll see when I can get it booked in for a tune and if Im not over my surgery in time I'll let you drive it to Sydney for me :thumbsup: (I'll be in the car too so you cant have too much fun :lol: )

No way man Adrian ripped them all from what I saw!! Not sure how he went in the last 2 races but he killed them in the first few... Also give them a good run in the morning cruise!! In my opinion he did us all proud!! There were some animal v8's up there that's for sure!!
I'm still half deaf after the Powerskids....
I'll post my pics 2moz... Got roasted in the sun up there today it was impossible to escape the heat and I'm buggered!

Yeah the red Evo was pretty quick too. suprised a few he did!!
Didn't see Adrian bog down at all - but did see a massive puff of black smoke on one of his first runs on gear change....Looked unreal!!
He was going pretty quick by the time he got to the grandstand where I was!!
Didn't see any yellow coupes but?? What happened to your mate Evo-oox ??

lol... na Robs yellow AWD coupe probably couldnt get the gearbox I sold him in on time as he got it Wednesday night but scrutineering was on Thursday.
Adrian will know Im taking the piss out of him. I built the bottom end of his engine and we have similar specs and the same ECU and tuner. I wanted to see how he went today so I know what I'll be up against when the coupe gets tuned in March (hopefully)
Did any of you boys take any vids to put up on youtube?

friday i had a few practice launches but sat and sunday went all out, theres no lag when you launch at 7000rpm just fuk loads of wheel spin,EVO-00X said:How did it go?
I heard there was a V-E-R-Y laggy charcoal GSR/EVO III wannabe at Powercruise today? lol :w00t:
thanks man, yeah i killed a fair few V8 monsters..jamo-gsr said:
what are you on crack??? :lol: not sure what car you were looking at, on sat i was getting off the line with shit loads of wheel spin and it stepped out on me pretty hard on one launch. and not sure what bog down shit your talkin about, nothing but hard charging... bring your binoculars next timeFRANK-E said:
lol - dont hate appreciate...yeah i was flying at the finish line and the end comes up pretty quick, had to get on the brakes pretty hard after crossing the finish line to pull her up...jamo-gsr said:
haha i saw a vid a mate took of me on that run , thats when it stepped out hard on me so i had to peddle it a bit and hit limiter for a sec then hard into 2nd gear which shot out a fire ball and cleaned out my exhaust lol

i will try and post some vids up when i get them off my mates, gf wasnt too good with the cam lol but you will have your hands full rob
if you do beat me you will have to work for it... hahahahad a fair few runs, friday made it to the 2nd round of drags, first race was against a xe falcon 351 with big cam and some other work flogged him with a mild launch 5k or so, beat so bad that for the next race i thought i didnt have to go out so hard and got a shit take off and a pretty tuff falcon flogged me had massive rear tyres on it!!!
on sat i made it to the 3rd round. first run was a blown 400ci big block torana, killed him then was up against a r33 skyline, not sure what it had but killed him too and last race was against a blown 408ci capri with 600rwhp he beat me as my clutch started slipping at the end of first gear, first 2 runs of the sat got mass wheelspin so after each run i dropped the tyre pressure but looks like my clutch got a lil too hot for the 3rd run, capri broke down after he beat me too so i was pissed off lol
on sunday had 2 runs, first run was against the same 351xe from friday and he wasnt too happy he was up against me again lol smoked him again then got put against a 9sec 720hp capri which i obviously lost to, not by much mind you... also had a shit reaction time in that final race...
other than that flogged my share of cars in the cruise sessions, a pac rx2 and some other monster V8's a turbo merc, a fully hollowed out R32 which made him pretty upset lol, drove past him later in the day and he gave me a mad flithy lol fag... i hit about 200kph down the main straight too lol was wild. had a big 4 wheel drift moment aswell coming out of a corner hard in 2nd gear put a smile on the gf's face lol all in all i was impressed with the way the car preformed the whole weekend, i drove it there ( had a race with an entrant on the way lol) and went hard all week end and drove it home not dramas at all...!!!
Bring on compact attack....!!!
:lol: na wasnt on crack just looked like when u went into next gear it wasnt straight on boost
didnt say it didnt perform :lol:
whats there to hate :lol:
it was funny to see the big powered cars playing with the pedal fighting for traction.to race them on the strip would be a different story tho lol.i dunno how some guys do it staying there the for 4 days straight!!!
i bet there would be alot of ppl at home tonight resting up nursing sun burns and head aches lol

she was on boost going up the gears, just big boost lol was running around 20+ i was also shifting a lil more relaxed, taking care of the box etc etc... also slipping the clutch a lil on take off not just side steppingFRANK-E said:
yeah mate top job on the build!!!! ive been going hard on the motor for a while now but powercruise would have to be the most ive pushed it as there is plenty of room to do it safely and without fear of cops etc... every morn i would go out on a cruise session and do a few warm up laps to make sure the engine and gearbox/transfer/diff are all warmed up then a few hard hits to redline to make sure everything is boosting good then go line up for the drags.EVO-00X said:
hahaha so you have to cheat and play dirty to try and beat me huh rob??
no set rpm to launch at just reving around 6-7k as i dont hit boost till like 6k so a 7k launch isnt really high rpm for me (if that makes sense) but always taking care of the driveline on take off and shifting. shifting at around 8400rpm, in the 200m drags i came close to the end of 3rd
