I just rang WSID and it's on for tonight. Hopefully the rain holds off.
I'm going to give it a go...

Cool... finally been spotted. (Was it when I was sideway turning onto Heathcoat rd?) :D

I rang them again at 3pm and they said it was on.

I drove out there and there was a sign on the fence. "Event Cancelled". Spewing.

Maybe next week?

Went to WSID tonight - very busy only got 3 runs

Was nice to meet another starion owner - Tomsun and co.

Best run was my first one 12.6 @ 113 mph
Fluffed the 2nd - 13.6
3rd was a 12.7

so i bit quicker than my last run 2 years ago. still ran on the same nankang tyres ive been using for almost 5 years. these tyres just dont wear. im starting to wonder if they are made of rubber at all :)

Yeah, it was good to see 2 Starions at the track. 1 immaculate widebody and 1 work in progress (mine).

Best was my first run 14.573 @95.65mph which I was happy with. All the other runs, I either spun the tires or bogged it down off the line.

A set of slicks or NOS kit!!! Need to get a sponsor for the forum. :beer

Or a trophy for each year. Quickest ET. For bragging rights?

UPDATE:

Hey guys.

I have been getting a few people asking about the money side of things.

Yes there will still be a $5 entry fee. BUT we wont be accepting the money until January 1st. This is so we can get more people in on the deal. However, IF we can get a sponsor to donate a prize such as a set of slicks/NOS kit or whatever we decide or can get, The money will go to a trophy or "SET" of trophys for the 1 or top 3 place getters depending on price. I will look into prices at the start of next year.

If anyone can possibly get sponsorship like this, let me know. Other solution is we put the money into purchasing a performance product with the entry money.

I'm really not even in the running... Me being on a shoe-string budget, my car is not in the same league.

But yeah I'll kick $5 in towards a trophy

Perpetual Trophy - Annual Starion Challenge.

Name and State and Year and ET anf MPH to be engraved on the back

Winner to organise and pay for engraving and postage to next years, winner. (Don't accept the trophy, if you don't want to pay for that expense)

The catch... You can only win it once!!! (even if you run a different car)... Don't be greedy.



Heck... I'll even organise the trophy. (Sorry Woody if it looks like I'm trying to take over... I'm just trying to conribute... So, let me know if you want to handle that part... etc???)

I was thinking about that idea as well of having a circulating trophy, but also thought people might prefer to keep a smaller trophy? I also don't mind if someone wants to contribute helping. I just want to make this as fun and profitable for everyone.

Don't worry about budgets either, mine I am sure is close to yours. :beer

Well it looks like all of us are either broke or with broken cars rofl
How far away are some of the competitors in this challenge from putting down a time?

I am broke because i bought a house, and have a addiction to buying mitsubishis. I need to give up this habbit and go back to 2 cars not 5 :roll: What's all the others excuses?

rofl

Been there done that!

I got my eye on a boosted starwagon, that has a nice list of mods that would make most starion owners jealous.

Dam it what am i saying :glare: No more
