Has anyone got the numbers of what an AU1 XR6 VCT (not HP) should be able to do the 1/4 mile in? Either a Wheels or Motor run would be great!

According to Motor in Sept 1999 15.5

Methinks casper is getting a little edgy before the "AU series 1 SHOWDOWN" at Heathcote on the 10th of January, or as i like to refer to it as the

"Casper SMACKDOWN!!!!!!"

Holy CRAP after that little outburst i better damn well win........... now where did i put that supercharger?

Casper · 12-17-2003, 15:13

actually, I just wanted to know what I could reasonably expect and give you guys a heads up on what is possible to run in my car.
Remember, I have an auto so it looks like ANYTHING under 16 seconds would be a bonus!

oh, and Kooky... you better win or I'll be doing the "pointing happy dance" in your direction!

Yeah anything under 16 would be great for me, saw an ef xr6 do a 15.5 or so at Calder he was running 18's on his so anything near that would be good.

Looks like i might try to get a dyno tune before the day. *crosses fingers*

may even look at some second hand sticky rubber to put on my old stockie 16's for the rear, then again maybe not....... the falken rubber is just shite! but at least if you beat me i have an excuse?

I doubt it :s6: My little car is carrying a HEAP more weight to move off the line! I'll be happy if I stay withing a car length of the Kooky mobile! And I think both of us well be happy to stay that close to AU1SIXA.

As for the V8's, I'll be happy to still SEE them by the line

In the end, I just want to beat 16 seconds...win or lose!

Going to be a HOOT!!!!!

hmmmm 150kgs less in the hp XR6 Bluedriver, with 2 1/2 inch zorst (extractors maybe?) I hope I can overhaul the ghost mobile he he going to be fun trying! drop the tyre pressures and see what happens hey?

BTW AU1SIXA may just make fools out of both of us in the LPG SLURPIN FREAK!
