Looking forward to breaking that 60s barrier, had to learn the car over again with a few more suspension tweaks, semi slicks and power steering.Ah that would have been hard. Awesome time especially given the traffic. |

QUOTE congratulations to Rob and Ivan for doing a blistering 56.92 in their little black NA and putting our Z to shame we just cant keep up in those twisty corners, no PB for us only managing a 58.06. thank you.... QUOTE I think it's unfair to claim street tyres title with a car that is unable to get mod plate for the public roads or cars with bare metals interior. Times are going banana, so lets introduce some control lol It's a bit oxymoronic if you run road legal tyres in a unregisterable car. So I think only manly men run sprints with road legal tyres in their fully road legal car with aircond and a full sound system Sick uley i fully agree.... i think next year we might race under the race class. that is just a thought.. might have to talk to the boys about it.. we had a few problems with the emanage.. but manage to sort it out at the 400pm testing run... car is all good now.... we will be stripping the engine apart on monday to recondition and re-fresh the engine.... in prep for Jamboree and the next few track meets... we are now at our wits end on how to get into the 55 secs... maybe we wll try using slicks... |

QUOTE(Mezevenf @ Sep 15 2007, 07:27 PM) [snapback]1281438405[/snapback] Got put into the newbies group , but still managed a PB of 61.73. I will be able to reach the low 60's no problem next time Goal is to crack the 60's before the year is out.Chasing that Topgear entered Skyline was great fun, he had a lil more squirt but I was faster in the corners, we both kept going wide offa turn 1 into the dirt trying to push it  Next time hopefully not so much traffic for me and I'll be getting some sweet times, just gotta find the limit of these new tyres Anyone grab pics of a Silver Alfa 75 number 275? Hey. I was admiring your car yesterday. Certainly has some balls down the straight and sounds very sweet. You did a remarkable job keeping the GTR honest. |

Thanks, always nice to hear! that was great fun chasing the GTR, it was a pity they had the lights going crazy, half of us thought it was being red flagged because they had the red lights on :S, they realized their mistake eventually.I could catch him in the bends but he had a lil more squit down the straight that me, he got into the dirt more than I did

Was a good day. It was my first time I've taken my car out (the red Z31). Was good to stretch her legs. I managed a 73sec which I thought was pretty good for a first-timer in a 21 year old car. |

Nah I was only stirring things up for a bit of fun there lol Congrats for you guys and the new PB...and some of the other fast people on the day as well. It was great fun to watch. Loosing weight or winding up the boost for more power are equally hardwork. Great to see your team efforts have been fruitful....now slow down so the rest of us can catch up  I just realised today that I had electrical problem after the amplifier, in the boot, jumped out of it's place lol I had some sort of speed sensor issue (even after I replaced the fuse) and were driving around with a big Zero on my speedo  On one of the session I was driving around with launch controller automatically on because the ecu thought the car was stationary. I was spitting out cloud of fuel through the exhaust on cars behind me when the engine reached 8krpm....so sorry for whoever were there. Vtec was not engaged as well since the speedo was zero the whole time.....so embarassing

Well I was fairly happy with the day - ended up with a new PB and managed to keep up, overtake and hold off a GT Falcon. Although I have to say it's nothing on Mez managing to give the GTR a run for its money |
