THE QUICKEST PRO SLAMMER FIELD IN AUSSIE DRAG RACING HISTORY

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The Western Nationals held at the Perth Motorplex saw the quickest Pro Slammer field in Australian Drag Racing History. With a 16 car field and a bump-spot of 5.877 seconds the racing during qualifying was intense.
Here's a countdown of the Top 8 Qualifying passes:
1. Paul Mouhayet - 5.629
2. John Zappia - 5.668
3. Sam Fenech - 5.744
4. Frankie Taylor - 5.748
5. Mark Belleri - 5.761
6. Ben Bray - 5.822
7. Matt Abel - 5.860
8. Ryan Moresby - 5.877
The top 2 qualifyers (Moits & Zappia) would go on to compete in the Final which was eventually won by the MOITS Mustang.

    Once again, world class field, great venue, owners drivers as well as volunteers spending big money and time to put on a great show! BUT WHERE ARE THE BUMS ON SEATS???? Seriously the sport is dying for the want of PROFFESIONAL PROMOTION, Dunno who's doing it but gee it looks like it will soon go downhill just like NASCAR is! without bums on seats it WILL DIE sadly, despite all the fantastic efforts of the competitor's and volunteers! PROMOTERS PICKUP YOUR GAME OR MOVE ON!

    @@brandonsikes9166 Every car is a clutch car as every car needs a clutch to shift (auto or manual) and no you don't stage a clutch car while its grinding on its clutch. On car's without a 2-step, when its time to go you're on the brake and nail the gas and let the brake off at the same time. Some put some gas into it on the brake and wait to nail it but you rarely get a good start that way. Your auto clutch then shifts at whatever shift points your car management system is set to. Nobody runs a blower with a manual clutch. It's impossible to shift a blower car 2-3-5-6 times depending on length of track while maintaining top RPM. You'd be on the rev-limiter literally every shift and add 1-2 seconds to every run on an 1/8th mile and probably 3 on a 1/4.

    Geoffrey Veale did you miss my comment on the aussy guys I have worked with that are bad asses and really great dudes?🤨 referring to my ET or MPH comment.... your promod cars are pretty much outlaw rules correct?you not only allow the PSI crew blower you guys allow the “C” rotor PSI witch is a lot bigger than our NHRA TA/FC & TAD use the D rotor. You do not have overdrive rules by the size of the top pulleys I see on your cars!! Your cars hall but don’t get me wrong but for the outlaw rules I would expect some 5.40s or even a high 40. The DA down under can’t be much above seal level and the humidity doesn’t seem high so I would expect more!! We got guys over here running your NOONNAN black hawk2 heads setting records with a lot less over drive on a lot smaller blower!
