Having been accused of being cynical, god bothering, and Today Tonight correctness, I am somewhat reluctant to dispell this 'urban myth'. Weight transfer has nothing to do with soft or hard suspension springs or shocks. Weight transfer in the acceleration/braking direction is governed by Centre of gravity height/wheelbase/G's acceleration. Also, anti-squat geometry is designed to lift the car, causing an 'equal and opposite' reaction at the tyre, (ie more traction) Physics has not changed since the earth was created. Erol

I certainly don't relate Skyline to 'young hoon' The statement below I do assosciate with 'hoon', regardless of age, stated experience, 4WD/2WD, Kw's etc.

Don't mean to be facetious, but the younger generation seem to think that traction and "the right foot" are completely divorced from one another. I would suggest a high performance driving course would go a long way to curing the traction problem.

It is called "The right foot" The best traction control around !

Do I detect 'sour grapes' ? Or is it 'mines bigger than yours', ooopps - can't be that - she's female !!!!

Like they say, ' give up music, learn guitar'.

Harry, All those classes DO fit and can gain outright points except the open wheelers and the sports race cars. it all seems rather obvious... to those that aren't blinkered.

So the rules will allow the sports sedans, V8 supercar/Fujitsu, 997 Porsche etc, to score outright points. Whether they enter or not is beside the point, the rules will allow it !!! The other point is that you need to do a bit more homework on F4000/Holden history. The current tyres available for F4000 are some 4 - 5 secs a lap slower than those available in 2000. A 22 year old, aluminium tub March, is some 5 - 6 secs a lap slower than a 14 year old carbon fibre tub Reynard 95D. "Only problem is someone wants to get the trophy for bashing up these grassroots competitors in their road registered cars..." Is not Michelle a 'grassroots' competitor, is not Neill a 'grassroots' competitor, are not the F/vee competitors that ran supersprints a few years ago 'grassroots' competitors ? Oh - sorry, has to be a closed or road registered car, at least that will stop the skirt from blowing up in front of the eyes. Erol

Will someone correct me if the below is wrong. For outright points A sports sedan is acceptable - Oran Park 1:06.9 A V8 Supercar is acceptable - 1:08.6 A 997 Porsche is acceptable - 1:09.6 A Formula Vee 1200 is NOT acceptable - 1:21.9 A Formula Vee 1600 is NOT acceptable - 1:18.8 An Aussie Legend is NOT acceptable - 1:16.6 For the Australian Supersprint Championship ANY CAMS category vehicle that is the quickest on the day will win the Championship. Seems to be a warped sense of logic in NSW.
