Found some drag pics to share:)

[homegrown]

Goodmorning AFFers, Ive come across some photos of the drags thought I'd share them. I dont think these ones are too old. I know there's heaps more so I'll add to the them when I find them. Sorry about the quality I was bored this morning and done it on my phone. When I get a scanner I'll do them again properly on the computer, but thought they were good enough to share. Please enjoy.

Thanks for sharing, they are some very tough looking coupes. What kind of numbers were they running?

[homegrown]

Im sure the black coupes are members of aff so they can confirm, but im im pretty sure all the coupes there were in the 11 sec bracket. Thats just from memory i could be wrong.

[Ibrox90]

When was that??? and it that AIR???

[homegrown]

Yeah AIR around 2003-5 not sure exactly when . Im hoping other people will load up some photos too. I know theres heaps in boxes in my shed will get to later.

[Ibrox90]

Nice one Phil, memory's of when Adam owned the coupe.

[Tucool]

Great pics people, it was always my dream to own a coupe when I was a young fella, I couldn't afford then and now I can't justify the expense

[pottery beige]

Thanks for putting them up Phil. The last XB pictured ran 10s all day. One of my favourites at the drags.

Moved house a year ago & recently unpacked these gems. The one on the left was a summer national street winner. The other 2 are just street meet winner & runner up.

Same Im trying to put some up now but not having any luck. More importantly its got footage of our coupe before it was painted. Found some photos of my dads old XT at the drags too. Nothing to get too excited about ran 14 flat all day long. but on the street felt like it was a really quick car. Got into the 13s and still had 2;7 gearing or something like that. Will put them up soon.

My friends XTGT. Yes that's Michael Cranks old XT. This was back when Michael had it and was running for SA fastest street car with 10 sec time slips. My mate bought it with a different motor in it but ended up getting in 11.8 out of her.

Growing up with my dad and his XT-Rs, Mike and gary watson were like Idols to us. Just in love their cars.

Hey Phil, is this your old girl. Its an old photo. I know it is because it was cut up to fit into my photo album when I was a littley.


An absolute classic. 15 second qtrs too.

Im having so much fun going through all these old photos and putting them up. Just the memories. This is how my dad I bonded. Hopefully this thread takes off and get a whole heap more posted up from other people too.
