June 18, 200521 yr Author comment_51281 Yeah i'd like to get told that its to fast then wave as i drive it home :P i will always drive it to and from the track. 135MPH is the parachute cutoff if you have drum brake rear, 140 MPH if you have disk brake rear as i do so no chute required yet, next upgrade (fund permitting) should see the need for one :D I will be running an auto from now on so will need a ballistic blanket on the auto to meet andra approval too, aswell as 1/2" wheel studs, harnesses, cage, andra approved seat (attached to cage somehow i've heard), 2 layer race suit, helmet, boots, all sounds like to much dollars and will wreck the car. Might just put street tyres back on it after this and try for a 10 again. Felix, i bought the KE10 from pro_ke, i have no pics yet but here are some from when alex owned it Report
June 18, 200521 yr Author comment_51282 Thought i might post up a vid of last time i ran it, full street trim, street tyres, first run i attempted to use the gas from 2nd gear, it ran 102.9 MPH to half track but the bloody thing spiked over 20 psi in 4th and cut out about 150ft from the line (you can see it pop out the exhaust) and only ran 121 MPH still a 11.2 though :P, next run was no gas and 14 PSI almost a perfect run, 1.75 60' and no missed gears still ran 11.2 :D OKE020 Video Edited June 18, 200521 yr by oke020 Report
June 18, 200521 yr comment_51304 fark... that thing hauls ass ! how on earth are you able to regester a rotary that does a time like that in a QLD car ? :) Report
June 19, 200521 yr Author comment_51305 yep it only did a 1.75 60' once on the second pass on the vid, probably due to running less boost as i forgot to hit sp2 on the eboost that run hense the boost peak recall only reading 14.7PSI for that run. Teddy, you can't thats why it is still the mustard colour and has 'authentic looking' steel wheels on it :) it is blue plated though i don't think it would hold much value if shit ever did happen.

June 19, 200521 yr comment_51308 that's one quick little corolla :) the 14s look huge :D you still got ke30 brakes on the front? Report
June 19, 200521 yr Author comment_51313 Yeah on the video the wheels do look huge, quite strange might be somthing to do with the dress rims? yep still uses ke30 front disks, at the moment it crosses the line at 200km/hr i usual keep accelerating for a bit after and it has no problems pulling up, would not like to try it more than a few time in a row though :) Report
