Saturday Afternoon Sprints.

lovin OEG60 new paint! loooks superb! few interesting cars out

where are these sprint held and when do they happen cause they look so much fun

Great day out today, although it still thoroughly annoys me when certain people STILL don't understand the concept of NO passing in the corners and try and force people out of their line

Anyway nice pics!

ROCK ON
R~R

sweet pics, how was the traffic out on the track? pig205 looks like a pocket rocket

Nice pictures Nis

I never 100% got the whole remove plates or cover them concept. Someone in the pits before you start or when you are about to leave could get a picture of them showing

V' nice pics man. Looked like a good arvo out.

It's slow, just ask Jamie.

lol @ cvics.. GO BOI RACER GO....

GT Kitted falcon looks a mint

nice pics

Thanks for the pics Nis ... will forward them on to the others





I think I posted a 1.10 following it

Driver just needs to learn the correct racing line and he should be right, as it's got a fair bit of gear in it



We're posting 61 and 62 second lap times around the Sprint course at QR and thats with unopened engines

What does your bling Prelude do ?

For a Honda owner you are absolutely clueless...


Nice pics B-Man! How did the GTV do around the track? And also is that an MX5 Bullet?

Not sure how quick it went around the track sorry. And yes it is.

eats civics for breakky

provided they dont have a k20 or a b18c lol

nice shots Nis, loving the civics

No breakfast for you then chump

Usually that's the first thing they do when you get there. It's more for insurance and sales than anything else.



The creme GTV ran a best of 64.53 today, I don't know what his PB is. And yes, that's a V8 Bullet Roadster.

ROCK ON
R~R

Yer I've seen people do it but just never personally known someone to do it

nice pics nis!, wish i could have made it out

....you drive a Prelude

its a sports luxury.. civics came out as shopping baskets for grannys

but lets not start a who drives a better car thing here.. each to their own.. i mean if i had a civic id probably do that up.. but... its a lil on the cheap side.. soz 4 offending lol

astinaboiv6 is a tool.

Ahh ok thought so, they have the supercharged V8 in them aswell, brother was a passenger in the standard V8 version and it's rather scary. Was informed a few years back that when they were just realised, to actually purchase one you had to complete some kind of driving course, so not just any average joe could hop into one before being properlly tested.

So Civic Type-R's and SiR's where designed for really quick granny's ?

Pull your head in mate and bring your piece of crap out to a race day before you start shooting your mouth off and demonstrating to the forums how much of a complete and utter knob you really are; which by the way you've already successfully done

you tell him Jamie


awesome shots nis, many wubs <3

Yay theres me! I'm famous!

no it isn't
it's pure redundancy

dam whos blue eg is that? i like.. im guessing another now with a K ?

Did anyone else not get the sort of times they expected? It seems like all of the Clios were getting slower times, we ended up coming to the conclusion that the rain might have washed rubber off the track or something.

Doesn't work for me of course, I'm just plain useless.

Let's hope they can get a timing system for the European cars worked out though. Those little transponders don't work with the front windows on the Renaults, so they've been fiddling around with different ones. As it was, I was timed manually, and I could have sworn they made a mistake - 2 seconds slower with a clear run than while overtaking slower cars and being overtaken by faster ones doesn't make a lot of sense to me. I can't remember making any obvious mistakes.

Where's the commodore's ??

Why dont the Renault's register? The alfas dont seem to have any problems... but yea, I got a slower time than I was hoping, I think your assumption about the rubber may have been true...

Hehe the Renaults lift their rear wheels so easily, was fun watching from *very* close behind the blue one.

man that s2000 has a bloody front mount! jealous

It's weird. They have this anti-UV coating on the windows, so the transponders for E-Toll don't work either, except for a small bit at the bottom of the screen where there is no coating.

But the timing transponders seem to be so sensitive that putting them down there gives you no reading. Or, if they do, there's something different about the window, which seems weird - but then they said the system actually uses the window to send the signals, apparently.

Anyways, they had special ones they stuck to the headlight, but only for two of us. We couldn't get any news on whether they worked or not at the end of the day though, so I guess we'll know better next time.

I was well down on my times, I feel I wasn't pushing as hard as normal, but I didn't think it should have impacted as much. The weather was perfect so obviously that can't explain it.



This is an event where you have to go around corners, therefore few Commodores or Falcons attend

ROCK ON

Any pics of a red corolla or yellow 929 coupe Thanks My times have improved with a 65.402 in the rolla

At first i almost passed out at the sight of the GT350H, as if it was a genuine one it would have been worth $200,000+. But It isn't Looks damn good though.

MX5 Bullit looks good as do the AC's, The Megane Cup etc etc etc etc and all those little pocket rocket Civics. Specially OEG60

Nice

None of the corolla sorry.

"pig205 " looks a pocket rocket

"Its slow just ask Jamie"

"Driver just needs to use correct racing line and he should be right"

I saw that car at the drags and it was doing high 12's [not bad for a FWD ]
Thats was the guys first time at the bendy bits so dont be too harsh on him. He was saying that his new catch can was spraying oil over one brake rotor and disc which made cornering/braking all the more interesting!!! lol i am glad it was him and not me. That car has heaps of potential so dont write it off just yet.
Didnt that yella Monaro sound the ducks gutz ??

The car did look rather serious and I'm sure it will make a good circuit car with it's power to weight ratio ...

However as a pre-caution, there where some highly dangerous things he perform on the track which potentially could have put himself and others in danger.

Please urge him to come to the drivers briefing before the sprints starts to understand what he should do if he comes off.

Again, as I said before, once he learns the lines around QR he will be right and will post some quick times

Thanks for that mate some good pics

Mick
