I have some unknown mod skillz to post in the future huh.gif

SWEET !! smile.gif

The GT40's are still quicker but Ivan is pretty sure there is a 56 yet to be run by the CRX cool.gif


Bigger brakes, less weight, more power, better handling it can be done tongue.gif.

Was out there watching today. That CRX just amazes me, I don't think any other cars come close to the same corner speed. It goes pretty nicely up the straights too.

lol... haha!

shit happens... we done a bearing.i think... lol.. i guess that must be the weakest point in the engine.. smallproblem just got to replace the bearing. was just a slight knck but we didnt want to take any chances. might damage the crank elsewise...

anyways we had a good run 57.4, we are now trying to head in the 56 secs

dont worry crx ahould be ready by next track day.. we will be stripping the bottom end on monday...

btw like to thank the guys for participating in the AMEC thingie was great to see you guys support the people that supports the sport..
overall well done to all... it's a shame we cant go to the drags tomorrow... or maybe we can!!

Rob how much does the b22 cost agian?? lol...

Do we know what the sprint course record is? I know a couple of turbo cars have gone quicker, but not too many n/a's would have... maybe the gt40? dunno.gif
edit: is it just me or is the post above's time after this ones? 7:43 > 7:33 right??? (prolly too much sun biggrin.gif)


Shit yea was pretty hectic out there today especially when you try and set fast times in group 8 :S New clutch/lsd gear box setup worked wonders today.

Good day even tho abit dissapointed we cant attend the Drag day tomorrow especially when we alrdy preped the car for drag spec haha. ( Think its spun a bearing sad.gif )

That GT40 is still abit quicker, 56.6 today i think but we'll get there soon smile.gif

Guys I got plenty of Shots as i was spectating instead of drifting... Ooops i mean driving! I posted some up. Pretty sure i got every car, PM me I can email you the shots. The CRX did look a lot quicker and i guess the results show it was! The Quickest NA's on the sprint circuit im pretty sure are GT3's down in the 55 bracket. But then again they are a few hundred thousand $$$ well spent compared to a Budget CRX, so extremely well done!

well done to everyone who competed in our track day yesterday and to those who improved their PBs. the purpose of the track day being to promote our sport and get more guys out onto the circuit biggrin.gif

I will post the results and the exact times when I get them off the laptop at work tomorrow.

no PB for us unfortunately, kept getting held up by a certain Porsche GT2 and could only manage a 58.36 angry.gif ah well thats the way it goes sometimes.

No new PB's for me on Saturday.

Unfortunately, it was my silver s2000 that blew the engine and dropped oil all over corner 2 in the second session.

Looks like I'll be out for a while sad.gif

Rookie ROX
Post #265

Ah ha! So THAT'S who dropped all the oil! I thought it must have been the red Alfetta seeing as it died in the middle of Turn 6.

Fun times..

ROCK ON

Poor S2000, I almost went off from that oil too!

Managed to get back onto some surface with grip before it was too late though.

No PB for me, low-to-high 64's on rather old street tyres. Can't wait for semi slicks!

Post #268

casey3353: Did you over rev it or something? Haven't heard of many S2000 engines blowing. I saw your car parked on the back straight and figured that it must have died.

Post #269

Wasn't due to overrev. Was sitting on about 7k rpms when it went. Apparently I started dropping oil coming out of corner1, then things went bang in corner2, left debris and oil through corner2.
Haven't heard the verdict on the extent to the damage, but I think it'll need a new bottom end at the very least.

I know Ivan was a bit stumped to hear a Honda go out like that ...

But we know what you want for Christmas then ...
