The first Full Throttle Friday at Sydney Dragway for the year is on the 8th of January.
Fingers crossed that the weather or work commitments don’t get in the way. We will be testing for Super Gas again, which is heads up, pro tree, and fixed index of 9.90

edit: Great weather and minimal delays meant 6 easy runs on the night.

7SINS RX7 attended a private track day at WSID, organised by Shane 1JZ 747 and Blacktrack Performance.
We had a total of 8 runs on the day, testing once again for the Super Gas class. First few runs were too slow then a few too fast, then on the 7th pass we managed a 0.08 reaction with a 9.901 ET.
Data was gathered throughout the day, which we can use when we drag race again under competition conditions.
Pics here.

One of ANDRA’s mainstream events, the Fuchs Nationals, will be held over 3 massive days- 11th/12th and 13th of September at WSID. All of Australia’s top teams will be there representing all drag racing classes.
We have given Super Sedan the flick this time and are trying our hand at Super Gas - which is reserved for full-bodied cars using a fixed index set at 9.90 seconds, with heads up, pro starts.
If we come through Jamboree unscathed, we will be testing on the 5th of September, to dial our car into the 9.90 fixed index.
There is alot of drag racing ahead, note it in your diaries and see you there!

Less than a month to go for the biggest Sport Compact event in oz. Willowbank Raceway Queensland is the stomping ground with the weekend August 29/30 the set dates.
Plenty of cars have been running their best in the last few months (while others have had transmission issues), so racing will be at its best with records bound to broken this time around.
See you there!

*edit* Lost the semi-final of ST289 by breaking out by 0.018 seconds! Report soon. Pics.

Next event is the 6th round of the WSID track championship.
Held on Sunday, the 31st of May, we will be racing with the newly installed Microtech LT16 ECU, a newer style of Bosch coils, and a new set of slicks.
Should be a good day of racing.

*edit* Event was postponed to the 20th June due to the weather. We may not be racing anyway due to an unexpected gearbox component failure a couple of weeks ago.

On the weekend of April 18th and 19th, we attended the annual ‘Tin Top Titles’ event at Willowbank Raceway, Queensland. We decided to go to this event rather than the K’Archer Nitro champs in Sydney as it was a 2 day as opposed to a 3 day event, and it was a good excuse to get away from work for a few days, with a days travel to and from the event, and the fact that willowbank generally runs large events alot more smoothly.Plus the fact that Mini Jam wasn’t an option in the Sport Compact Group series this year.
