Plenty of them fly off when used at speed.

I personally didnt even know I had them and had been using water jets with lights on doing 130kmph luckily mine has metal clips whereas a lot do not and this is where the issue comes in

For those that haven’t been following the drag night thread.
I took the wagon to the drags on Wednesday with a few others from the forum. My best run of the night was a 13.08 @ 106.5mph.

My 13.08 run from inside my car.. not that exciting to watch….

My 13.08 run from inside my opponents car - A Mitsubishi Mirage with a modified 1.8T GSR engine. Starts at 1:10 in the video.

I’ve definitely got the bug now. Going to go again in a few weeks, and will film it properly from inside and outside the car. If I reduce the weight in the car a bit, I may be able to go close to a 12.99 which would let me die happy hahaha

Nice time for an auto given your engine mods
Assume you haven't done any mods to the auto?
What was your 60ft time by the way?

No mods to the box itself.

That's a awesome time. Your the column in yellow on the Right yeah?

[Archie01]

Damn that's impressive!
I guess the extra 0.5ltr gets the turbo on song sooner.
Wonder if a stock 2.0 ltr auto box with similar engine power has ever done a 1.8 60 ft'er?

A few have.

2.0 has a faster spooling turbo as well.

Anyone on this forum or other forums?
Links to car specs?

1.72 60 ft time on the stock preface auto here

That was with the stock box, stock engine but 2871 turbo

[Archie01]

Nice
Did you left foot brake or was that a handbrake type launch or both lol?

sorry don't mean to hijack thread

[peadya100]

I did a left foot brake on mine to about 2500rpm. You can see it in the first video.

Fark! This is impressive!
Makes my 14.3 @ 101 even more appalling

Great stuff Adam

What was your 14 in? The liberty? Original engine or new one?

Yeah mate, my LGT with the new engine; on 98RON. Did it twice only 2 weeks ago (before centre diff went bye bye). Ironically, I only did two runs to "save the diff"

I'm now thinking I may have a similar issue as Mick (albeit slightly less exaggerated given my lower power and smaller turbo) as I couldn't get better than 2.3 or 2.4 60'

I can't shake this bad feeling that as soon as I go to the drags, my centre diff will get snapped up just like yours and J's!

Are there any centre diff upgrades we can do besides the pins?
