The car number is entered to the lane, and appears on every slip you get.
It was the first thing I checked.... and yep, was my car/entrant number on the slip, and every other slip I got for the day.
The diff wasn't behaving like an open diff that day. I went over the video many times, and every warm up burn out was twins....
Mind you, the diff died a couple of months later, so maybe that was an early warning or something.
And I hardly think the officials, crowd, or driver in the other lane would allow me to get away with staging with the rears on the line! rofl

Yea it is a cop car(fake one), up here they run a program where they get hoons off street by racing police officers in a car sponsered by local business's.
That car will run faster, that lane was slippery due to 2 spills in the 60ft at start of the night (hence why 60'ft times down)

First post has been updated...
Please check that I have the numbers right as the pic of the time slip is a bit hard to read.
Please give me a list of info about the car eg mods so people get an idea of what they have to do to get similar performance.
Cheers,
Pete
PS: you were 0.002 second away from being 3rd on the list.... :D
great work

huh? not fair... what has fair got to do with it... LOL
It's just a list is just for interest sake... your not going to get a medal (or a chest to pin it on) even if you every get to number 1. :D
PS: We all know what motor the Starion came with... That is why I listed the engines. EG you have the fastest SOHC Starion in Australia. But don't get a big head over it... FIGJAM. :D
Can you do me a favour... Please check that I have the numbers right as the pic of the time slip is a bit hard to read. let me know if they are correct.
Also... can you give me a list of your mods (Computer you are using? Injector size? Fuel pump? pistons? rod? turbo type? etc... )
REMEMBER WE ARE ALL HERE TO SHARE INFORMATION... THIS IS WHAT THIS WEBSITE IS ALL ABOUT...
Good luck with the next drag meeting. Remember to post your new timeslip if you improve... :beer
