(looks at ever decreasing list of excuses) I was going to wait till I had a decent set of rims/tires but after last saturday, I can't wait any longer. Expect to see me out there next event... hopefully I can get round the circuit without spinning... after watching many cars take many different lines through turn 6, I think I have a line sorted that I won't spin on... |

Rarely any serious casualities, normally just mechanical issues. The main places for any spins or whatnot are well clear of walls or barriers - unless of course someone drops their load of oil at the straight exiting turn 2 : |

It's more that I take pride in the photography work that I've been doing and am going to miss that aspect a bit ... until I hit turn 1 in 4th gear

I'm so jealous Thanks m8 I am still not sure which line or which gear to take those corners yet. What ever I do I only get a few kmph difference at beginning of the 1st corner....I think I need more midrange and a lot of practice What's happening with ur gtr and hipower crx? When are we going to see em again? |

When are we going to see em again? I'm selling the GT-R and making way for a new project which I've just acquired Will be ALOT cheaper then trying to modify the GT-R for track so I can concentrate my finances in other areas The CRX should make a return next session and it looks to go quicker again

You'll have to wait and see With any luck the project should be up and running by the end of the year ... Unfortunately it will mean I'll be testing it in the harshest circuit conditions with the summer temps but by then I'll probably just be happy to be out there
