Hi guys

The guys out at Morpowa were great too, really helpful and happy to stop for a chat. Pity there werent more cars out in the SA event, but we had a great time anyway! Especially Ehab and the Corolla! Hehe.

Well I was in class 2 and got 165.8rwkw and Eamon got 147.4rwkw in class 3.

Any other SA results yet?

To put it another way how fast can you run if i lift you off the ground?

Brad has a car show this afternoon, he may be a while with the SA results.

Was a good morning, shame about the numbers though.

Well done to all involved, a great effort to see a rep in each state put in the work to get the day going smoothly, and to the dyno shops to giving up their time for the day.

The day at G & D was fantastic, had a good yarn to all top easy going people, Glenn and Matt at G & D always impress with their customer relations and work quality. Good cars turned up and Kev's old man did a great job perfecting the snag turning!

Cam, that pursuit of yours will be a weapon with a bit more fine tuning!

and also Josh pulling a massive 61f(front)wkw with aircon on in his fiesta..
Daves xr8ute, also made an extra 10rwkw over last time, now at 170rwkw..

Hey I got a runner up trophy, thanks everyone who has been involved.

A few did not show (so better chance for me :voldar02: )

I got a 239.1 kw in my SP. 7500 on clock and not much done, I am stoked :

My target of 290rwkw looks easy to achieve.

Thanks again guys

John

Top day and many thanks to the guys at G&D and the AFF organisers.

My ED (class 2) on the day pulled 159rwkw, which is very close to the 160.5rwkw previously on the JMM dyno a few months back, so it shows the old ED is still going strong.

was a great day, slightly marred by a bit of precipitation in the early parts

was surprised/stoked to get as much as i did, considering ive been advised 45-48 is the norm

big thanks to the blokes who organised this, and even more so for the great prizes. i believe that's real metal on the trophies

Good to see the Qld F6 showing some nice numbers in comparison with the other states - even given our bloody hot and humid weather!

Thanks again to Steve and all the boys at RD.

Geckster, what's going on dude? I was down HP on last time as it was a hotter day, but I take it you had computer gremilins? Good to catch up with a few ol mates there, shame I couldn't hang around and meet more of you Ford freaks.

The thing I really missed was a morning of heckling..... :hihi:
First off, a big thanks to Steve and the crew for a great day, always a day of salivation when I visit RDP. Might have to throw that SC higher on the list of priorities.

As for my result, unichip sucks the big one and I am so over it (down 37 rwhp from my initial tune). Edit is coming and not a minute too soon. My ecu has worked out how to get around the unichip and therefore my result was basically a stock XR8, just helix and underdrives giving it a little more. These ECU's are just too smart for the unichip and today just confirmed my suspicions. Now I am just trying to work out if I can get edit for morgan park or not.

Great result for Tori, drove her car today and the beast is awesome, thanks Princess!

What Tibbo's piccy doesn't show is the missing front bumper and incomplete paintwork :P

Once again, Thanks to all the Guys that ran the respective days, all who helped out, and everyone who turned up.

Would have loved to be there early enough to trade witty reparte with you Greg... you would have been proud, Jetting changes in the gutter and all again :evil3:
