    Have you run yours down the 1/4 yet?

    A big thing to note is what condition is your engine in. With VR6s nudging the 20 year old mark most will have higher km engines.

    No, no 1/4 runs yet. There are no 1/4 tracks in Adelaide. My best run down the 1/8 at portland was 8.77 and an 8.79. The 8.79 was when i striped 3rd gear and had to finish in 4th.

    Does anyone know if heathcote is open again?

    I heard that they closed it last year to upgrade the track, is that not right?

    sounds like I was given some bad info then.

    May have to head out there later in the year and do a few full passes.
