Sadly not much power needed. The surface was covered in dirt/dust it was slippery as.
Also, no slicks or tyre warming was allowed, so traction was certainly in short supply for most entrants.

Did you have fun Chris?
I flicked through the entrants list and see there was some interesting machinery, and the usual Commodore variants.
I also read on the Skyline board that two Skylines bettered 270?
Smoken!

Yeah Tex, standing 0-1000m, trap speed was measured over what looked like ~10m at the end. But those results haven't been published yet. The speeds I'm quoting are from my GPS/OBD2 logging.
Heard through the day the GT-R's were doing high 260's, the VLT IIRC did 299 on it's best pass.
Video is uploading to 'tube now.
