Must have been a slow Porsche Cup Car, i'd say he means the old Porsche Cup which had a few classes. Not the Carrera Cup that was just canned. The "Cup Car" i speak of is the 996 which used to race in the one make series. The GT2 has revalved shocks (no damper adjustment, only height as standard), different springs, stock sway bars, stock calipers and standard sized disc's. Obviously runs fairly aggressive pads. Stock aero. Now runs a full cage. Engine is rebuilt (basically to stock specs) after it had a bit of a failure at Drive Bathurst but it's very average compared to this R34 GTR. Standard GT2 intercoolers and turbo's but with external water spray. Increased boost. Straight pipes. Slightly different intake. Makes approx 365rwkw so it's no power house. Weighs in at about 1300kg without driver. Runs Michelin Slicks. It's done a 1:03 at WP on Yokohama semi's when Warren Luff drove it for Dutton 2 years ago. Now does flat 60's at WP on the Michelin Slicks driven by the owner. Does 1:12's at OP GP being driven by the owner. That 1:35 at EC was also the owner driving.

I can only really compare the time to some of the Porsche's i have worked on (996 GT2 and 996 Cup Car) http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results..../2009.EAST.S2.Y The top 2 are the cars i mean, and those times are on slicks! This GTR is very very fast. It certainly is packing a fair bit of power to make up for the grip deficit though!

I saw that. Impressive on semi's!

Approximate times?

Believe it or not, Vinyl is quite a bit lighter than a normal paint job. The RS spyder that races in the US in ALMS is made yellow only by vinyl. Saved about 7kg from memory. They look so much better in raw carbon but sponsor dollars talk!

Hey, If you get sick of that, feel free to contact us at [email protected] and we can go from there!

Good to know When are you expecting there'll be another event run?

Are you taking suggestions on your next event? Individual classes for FWD, RWD and AWD. I have a very underpowered car, but i'd have a crack at the FWD guys in the open class!

I was afraid of that. I've been keeping an eye on the progress through various threads (as i live in Sydney but would love to see it resurrected so i can drive it!) and didn't think they'd get off lightly. There's always someone to complain...

Check the attached picture for what is included in the price. There are the 3M adhesive backed quick release clips (for helmets and body panels, etc), suction cup mount, RCA/USB cable for transferring the footage to your laptop/PC/TV/VCR, various plastic arms to allow mounting on any angle, the waterproof case and the camera. So it's a complete camera and mounting kit, not just a mount. Camera is under a 1 year warranty from date of purchase in case anything should go wrong, but i am yet to have any problems. I also sell a "Get Started" package which includes the Camera with mounting kit, 2GB SD Card, 2 x AAA rechargeable batteries (as well as 2 x AA rechargeable batteries as an extra), a battery charger and freight for $320. Everything needed to pull it out of the box and use it. Customers can elect to have the batteries pre-charged or not. Some people just want a solution and don't want to have to find individual pieces, so that is why i offer it. I take a few dozen packages out to the track with me when i sell them so that people can purchase them and use them straight away! Dezz, if you'd like a spec sheet, send me through an email and i'll attach one for you.

$259.99 is the RRP. For people outside of Sydney, i can include free delivery. I send my camera's by Overnight Express, which is next day delivery unless outside of a metro area. Takes 1 extra day usually.

Hey Andrew, It comes with a suction cup mount for mounting on the inside and outside of windscreens and windows, body panels, motorbike fairings, surf boards snow boards and wakeboards, pretty much anything that is relatively flat and smooth. By the way, they are water proof to 30 metres so can be used in the rain, snow or surf! Also included in the pack are 4 adhesive backed quick release clips you can stick on body panels for a more permanent mounting position that you often use, on your helmet, the limit really is your imagination! We're about to use these in Marine Biology to study sharks. There really is no limit to what you could use them for! So to answer your question, yes, you can use the suction cup. We have tested them at up to 292km/h on the roof of a 996 GT2 at Drive Bathurst '07 multiple times over the week and had no problem. They have also been tested on the *OUTSIDE* of a plane at 150mph without drama. Feel free to contact us at [email protected] for more info or to purchase them. Luke (Race Supplies Sydney)

I sell the GoPro Motorsport camera's here in Australia. If anyone would like one, you can contact me at [email protected] All of my camera's are sent Overnight Express so generally you'll have them the next day, unless outside of a metro area in which it will probably take an extra day. No waiting to receive the camera from the USA, if you receive it at all! Also, because it is bought here, you are covered by a 1 year replacement warranty! Gives you a bit of piece of mind should anything go wrong. We will also help you troubleshoot any problems, instead of ignoring you once you've paid your money! If you'd like more info or a spec sheet, feel free to email us. For the money, you won't find a better system! Have a look at a sample video, mounted on the front spoiler of a Porsche 928: And another: And another: He's made some awesome video's!

Well done guys
