reece & rob - dont worry to much about reaction time, id doesnt affect the ET and isnt a big deal unless you are competing in a class or for bragging rights

[Fritzz]

does anybody know the fastest 1/4 time for a (barra) 6T powered car?

there's a torana(yes a holden) at the motorplex with a de-stroked ba-bf 6t engine with a twin turbo setup..

has run a best of 7.9@170mph...

[Under-Pants]

170 MPH

Tocchi has some cereal competition

Hey Kyle, any specs on your car or timeslips you'd care to post up? Manual or Auto?

Went for a run last night for a bit of fun. Already knew car was underpowered as had to go back to old generic tune because my XCAL3 crapped itself. Stock injectors ran measly 13.5@104MPH. As I couldn't lay any decent times I thought I'de have a play around trying to improve 60ft. Tried reefin on the handbrake to minimise wheel spin at the start and seemed to work with 2.063 60ft on crappy street tyres.

Any other suggestions that might work with getting off the line quicker.

I would be forking out for some et streets mate!!!

or if youve got the coin... get a stall convertor installed and your tune adjusted to suit.

a 2500rpm or 2800rpm stall convetor will work nicely at the strip along with a good tune and et streets.

senna runs a 11.970 well best I done only had about 5 runs since the work so hoping to get a 11.8 before I go to slicks. it has the nizpro stage 2 on it. I am often out at willowbank so if any one wats a chat about the car fell free to ask.

I got a sh*tty 14.2 at 107mph with a 2.60 60ft in my BA xr6 ute with 308rwkw. was very dissapointed, didnt have practice with my new clutch in the t5, So id pretty much just drop it at 2,800rpm, then wait for it to spool up again. I think my low time is due to my sh*t take off and car is capable of 13's atleast? Or is there something wrong with my car?

There was a couple of stocker xr6's doing 13's and their takeoff didnt seem to flash either. Awel :(
