If anyone is a bit unclear on what it means when some people are talking ‘traction control’ on the internet as it relates to these cars, you can watch this video from Davis Technologies on how it works on their system as well as the Holley and Fueltech (Haltech also have this type of system on Nexus and Elite 2500T) ua-cam.com/video/5t9YsNlXUmM/v-deo.html
I reside in southern california but if i ever moved out of the states it would definitely be to Australia, i love the Aussies and your way of life.....cheers mate.
@@dennisharsch4926 one Question , why do you have to live in Australia ? No one is making you . Sorry your not enjoying our lovely Country , you can always return home , and if you do , and upon arriving back in the U.S. you realise that life is so much Better in Australia , we will always welcome you back , Mate .
I was a bit disappointed with the Aussies tbh. We had no chance. Although a lot of our cars were not pro-mods and even if they were we have zero practice doing no prep racing on the streets with our cars. Tracy Grimshaw would have them locked up if we did. But bloody hell the yanks were stupidly quick out the gate so mad props to them. And it was massively impressive to see them run their cars here on Aussie soil. I like Calder because I live near to it but Heathcote is a better track
Seemed like they were getting the power down better at the end, you think that was more to do with tune or having more rubber down? Hoping it's more rubber, I'll be there tomorrow
Probably both. More it rubbers in the better it’s always going to get. Even just one pass gets you some pretty important launch rpm and driveshaft data which is what makes these cars work as well as they do.
Remember being in the stands many many Friday nights, in winter, lips blue, nose frostbiten 😂 I’ve spent a lot of time at this track over the years. Was nice to see a cool event there again.
It’s no prep, it’s not meant to be fly paper like a radial track prep. The Aussies don’t have enough data on these types of surfaces so are taking longer to come to terms with what they need to get down the track.
They haven't had the timing boards on at any track in Australia, I don't think they do it in the states either, pretty sure they only do 300mtrs in the states, I heard that's all they did in Sydney
A mate said to me that they have 1/8th mile races because that's what they use on the actual street racing in the USA for no prep racing. Easier to find that length of road, make sure it's safe to race and quickly. I'm still not a fan of 1/8th mile racing though. Still impressive cars and drivers.
9:04 One jerk-off ruining it for everyone......back in the day.......He'd never go to the bathroom, Bad things can happen there. Today, everyone just gripes and puts up with these antics!!!
Thanks buddy i think you'll find it was supposed to happen in 2020-1 and the gov ? don't quote me were doing a 40 million $$ upgrade ? well covid came now im not over all the details but calda park were there from day 1 thx its a great place to watch from the hill ? with a beer
Is it true the Americans are using traction control and the Aussies don't have it cause it's not allowed here, ( ANDRA 4.8.2 ) makes sense why the Americans get down the tracks better and don't spin like the Aussies. Can you confirm Broomy??
It’s not allowed in some forms of group racing only. Turning ‘traction control’ on doesn’t just work instantly anyway, it works off known driveshaft speed Vs time. They have the data they can load in to literally run specific times and the car will run that time, pretty much every time. That tech is built in to most modern ecu’s, so I would say pretty much every Aussie car competing would have the option to turn it on and set it up as well. Problem is, most of them have been radial racing on fly paper track so don’t have enough data to load known no prep slick tyre driveshaft plots to make it effective.
@@BroomysGarage So I'm guessing that the USA have the data and are using it and the Aussies have no real data to use. (Doesn't seem like a fair fight) Just seems they have a big advantage over the Aussies, as watching a a lot the footage on UA-cam makes the Aussies look like B class racers and that is definitely not the case.
@@FuManchu5ltr Would be better racing if they did not use traction control and turned it off to make it a level playing field. Makes for better racing and entertainment. Not being a level playing field, just makes it predictable racing and not as enjoyable to watch. But that's just my 2 cent's.

It was an honour taking disco deans car from Sydney to Melbourne on Monday. Can’t wait for this season of street outlaws to hit the net to watch it

And we will take you in as one of ours , we are a friendly bunch .
Aussie Aussie Aussie OI Oi Oi , learn those word and you'll be set .
I have to live in asutralia and believe me the standard of living is nothing compared to home in the USA.
@@dennisharsch4926 better or worse?

@@kenmackay9276 fark mate. Steady on there. Let’s just see how things go first.

Man i must say the aussies builf a clean ass race car. Gotta love that american muscle though💪 cool video. Thank fella!
Just Clean. Very nice.
Great footage of all the cars man

Thanks for sharing ...

The outlaws have it figured out. And more horsepower. Lol. Im sure if the aussies do more noprep they will get better. But need more hp also.
Good stuff Broomy 🤙
Awesome as Always... Great Footage .Hard to follow these events from the Uk, Thankyou... Any Updates on yours?
Been super busy of late, will be back out again in April 👍🏻
@@BroomysGarage Thx for reply .Cant wait
It is just a data point, what position with it is up to them
I was sitting about 50 metres to the right of you! Awesome footage!👍
Thanks mate. Any chance of a live feed on Sunday?
I’m not going Sunday mate, sorry.
That blue falcon with the box looking harrop supercharger looks like its got the 7.3l godzilla out of a super duty 4:16
i just looked again and im gonna say yes it is a Godzilla
Yep sure does 👍🏻
@@BroomysGarage I’m so buying one of these once my divorce is settled hahahahahaha.

Was pretty hard to watch.
Practice makes perfect.
I remember many years ago sitting behind that start line getting showered in nitro, good times …

@@BroomysGarage do you know is it ever coming back as a regular thing?
Is it bad track prep or what??
It’s no prep, it’s not meant to be fly paper like a radial track prep. The Aussies don’t have enough data on these types of surfaces so are taking longer to come to terms with what they need to get down the track.
@@BroomysGarage ah right that makes sense 😅 it's in the name
Sick Video Broomy were they only doing 1/8 mile? Bloody Calder and there shit timing boards not working like always🤬
Yeah the event is based around 1/8 mile no time racing.
They haven't had the timing boards on at any track in Australia, I don't think they do it in the states either, pretty sure they only do 300mtrs in the states, I heard that's all they did in Sydney
Because that is street outlaws 🤷♂️

Overthinking the first “ Australia “ Broomy your not a yank
I was over there for 3 weeks late last year. Must have picked up an accent

Or. Rather than excuses, we had our arses handed to us and need to get better.
Those cars were fast that’s for sure !!
