If i get in ill take it semi serious in that i really want to do a 1:09 at Wakefield with the RB20...outside of that, if you dont spin your not trying as far as im concerned so ill be trying ....and spinning :)

Actually why be modest.... The Rb20 POWAH comes into her own in goold old Goulbourn. Any Vic GTR that crosses the border will soundly have its ass handed to it by the R32 :)

In Vic they are quick, in NSW SBS is bound to get you leaving the pits :D

Well Brisby - from what I gather I think we might all actually get only 1 timed lap. The rest of the time is practise.

So if you are planning on spinning in the timed lap you won't be doing a 1.09. You'll just be losing. But then if I've ever met a loser......

:)

But now I'm really interested to see what cars they are choosing for their "30" since they got 420 entries. I wonder if there is going to be a bunch of HSV's or things like Porka's or even exotics? Or whether it will just be Jap turbo cars.

Since I wouldnt have even known about this event if it wasnt for this thread 420 entries is heaps. God knows who they are.

Actually - I have considered the SBS thing. How funny if it happened to me. I mean I wonder if I will be the only GTR there without sump baffles? I'm pretty sure I'll be the only GTR there with stock internals.

Funny how guys like Tory, Troy, Roy, Tray etc etc can all claim to own the same car:)

...and what Snoman says. If they had their head screwed on they should get the best of everything, which means top Porkas, Evos, STI1s, Skylines (ie GTRs), Toyotas, Holdens and Fords (if there are any quick Fords???) etc etc.

Anyway, time will tell, one timed lap all day will be good actually, it will really help the likes of Fatz...go the RWD local boys :)

My boobs are the result of years of excess/indulgence my friend...all natural.

Im going to ring that guy i crew for to see if he can ask his friend to drive my car..its no BDA Escort, but :D

...and whoever said the truth hurts, its actually kinda funny :lol:

Go to any Sprint day at Eastern Creek, Oran Park. Open Practice Days at any track. East Coast Rally etc etc. There are plenty of cars that are prepared by plenty of workshops...so throw in hillbillys liek me and 420 deosnt really surprise me considering there would be Vic, NSW and Brisbane entrants

well your motor is already on its walk to the grave.

So it wont matter if it sh|ts its brick

I remember that day at Sandown, Snowie (the Ice Supra pic). The Ricebucket was pissing oil everywhere and it went all up the side of my nice 33 in right of pic :D

No love for 33's Pete, it's not a slider's battle; now where's my sump dammit? :) Maybe Drunken can bring it as cabin luggage next time he's down.

lol its in melbourne pm me and ill give ya andrews umber

LOL - No-one asks me. I know everything remember :)

I'll talk to Andrew and see if i can get it... worst case i can drop it off too ya as i gotta go to Shan's one day next week to check some stuff out.

Should have PM'd... but meh.

Its only turned into snowy's trumpet blowing thread anyhow. :lol:

Cheers Ash, eitheer works.

How can you lot be so interested in what is mostly a waste of effort?

Autosalon/Cabin = pure crap

There's real racing to be done, and now I need a working bee to get mytrack car back out there :)

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
