I wish, i've got to go to the drags just to get some bastard in the next lane.
Probably the better place to do it, street racing is not drag racing ;)
I'll be heading down the strip on the 12th Feb if the weather holds out.

I was trying to drive down the road, do you think I could get traction?
Maybe I need to use 4WD

If this doesnt comply with forum rules, I'll take the links down.
It was on a private road however :geek:

Hey, I know that road! :shock:

I'm glad it's a private road because I was out there pre-running before Christmas and I wasn't really sure :mrgreen:

Nice burnout btw 8-)

It will only go as high as the gear you've selected.
I had it in 2nd for those, 1st just tends to bounce off the limiter.

One sweet ute, saw it briefly in the flesh and it's pretty awesome :)

Now, back to it, street meet in Townsville on the 12th Feb, looking to bust that 100mph mark and hopefully slip into the 13.8-13.7 area....to drop under 2.0 in the 60 foot would be awesome as well :twisted:

Jap are you planning to get a new rear diff, if not I would start planning with burnouts like that, the clutch's dont last long at all fishtailing like that, loads the lsd up big time, best way to kill a lsd, all fun but costly.
