NME308's TA23 Celica first outing!

Post by NME308 »

A video of the Celica has surfaced from Easter Weekends event.
So it wasn't much but on the day it was still good enough for 3rd fastest outright at the 2015 Toyota Nationals in Australia 1/8th mile airstrip drags!

Hopefully much more to come once I get on top of the lean out issue. :D

Cheers,
Jason

Hi slaus,
I went what seemed like a pretty lacklustre 8.67 with a 2.3 60 foot time over the eighth mile. It is however an unprepared airstrip & on the day cars which run bottom 10's over the quarter were running 8.2 & my mate with a 1GGTE RA23 who runs 11.2 @ 122mph on the quarter ran a best of 8.86.

It was in my favour to be running eighth mile on the day because I had to back off as soon as I hit top gear due to going badly lean. :lol:

Currently I am attempting to implement a bowl reference system on the carb which switches the reference point under boost from the off boost reference... I'll explain more in my thread once I have trialled it!

Cheers,
Jason
