RACEWARS 2017

Those boys sure see red hey........

Gets worse when you start talking about the actual red team. Sprint did not deliver the underdog punch we were expecting. They remain adamant one day the planets will align and they will overboost there way to the moon

I'd rather extract each of my nasal hairs with a pair of long nose pliers whilst snorting bleach than spend anytime on AFF talking about anything with those one eyed Donkeys (and I own 3 Fords)

Just make sure your speed limiters are turned off and you have a decent tyre. I was hitting the speed limiter before the 800m mark just doing roll-ons.

 

Toyo R888 or the like are a good choice of tyre. I had Nitto Invo last time and they weren't good on the average track. I'm also considering putting a half cage in for 2017.

I wouldn't even bother going if I had a speed limiter or stock tailshaft.

B-series tailshafts are ok. I've damaged a halfshaft, diff and T56 while the tailshaft has been fine. All you should need is a shaft loop. Steve has run both years with the speed limiter on and has enjoyed it. I simply forgot to load my racewars tune!  Was still fun though, even though I only did maybe 3 or 4 runs.  

 

Im not expecting anymore than one or two people from here to go given that no one even bothers with Powercruise, which is a much easier and cheaper event to get involved in.

 

Weekemd cruises are fun but these events give you the freedom to push the limits more.

Does the tailshaft have problems at high speed as well or are you guys just worried about the launch? Is the top gear putting too much torque through it or something

[IH8TOADS]

I've launched mine off the two step and done numerous high speed runs, if mine was going to break its had enough opportunity.  F series are weaker than b series though.

 

I could list a number of things that will fail before my tailshaft, but I'll just talk myself out of Racewars.

I was going to enter the falcon for fun -- until I realised last week about my one piece long tailshaft :(

I'd be more worried about the bush in the back of the btr exploding at 180+kmh then the stock tailshaft.
