I don't know if there's too much interest in the few track days down in Australia, but yesterday there was a test and tune at Heathcote that I went along to with the ITR (AEM CAI / Comptech header). This was the best run -



Here are the weather stats in fahrenheit for you.
Ambient: 45.6C -> 114F
Track: 70C -> 158F

Has anyone got any correction factors for ambiant pressure and temperature? I can only find figures for height above sea level.

Either way, I'm still happy with the day's running. For comparison, a Ford BA XR8 (http://www.ford.com.au/falcon/mainFlash/) was running 14.9x - 15.1 and an auto Holden Monaro / GTO in the US(?) was in the 15.7-9 range.

 

those look like really good times.. 114f!!! wow, hot day.

 

Thanks. The heat was making some of the return road fall apart as the tar had melted.

 

Ya gotta love the Aussie summer hehehe

 

And in good Aussie style, the temperature did start to drop, but the humidity doubles just to spite you .

 

i got a EG civic SI with d16a8 ( ZC) twin cam
im from sydney
i did race @ drag combat
best time :
15.1 sec @ 90 mph
2.1 sec 60 foot

tyres : dunlop do1j formula R ( 15 psi)
205/50 15 inch.

ITR can easily do mid 14 sec dude.

 

I'm very impressed with your time. Having driven a '92 Si, it is a rather capable car, although I won't comment on your failure to disclose all of your mods.

Still, next time it would help if you read the entire post and not just the best time achieved on the day.
