Sigh,,,My budget doesn't extend to such luxury's as a video camera.

Whats the actual story behind the ambulances?????

Those open wheelers are quick!!!

Heres a short vid of a GTR launch at Huntly (5500rpm)

Yep 30.93 was my best time, but I did improve with every run. It's called lack of traction. Took me 5 runs to dial in the back end and then on the 6th run I think I've broken an axle on the start line. It went BANG. Lost the front splitteras well so back to being a busy boy for the next week and a half. Bloody Grafton is close.

I gotta say though I had a great time and will do it again. The GTR's 1st launch was awesome,,, big 4wd lightup and then it squatted down and took off. The pushrods next to me went off. They had never seen anything like it before.

The ambo's had to treat a old fat driver(I mean FAT) at the top who had a heart attack. He's okay now though.

30.93?

I thought you would do way faster than that - ive done a 30.1 with 2 stuffed gear changes and a slide out of turn 1. I had 2 better runs but they werent timed (phone with timer stuffed up)

Sad news about the guy with the heart problem

AND the axle :D

Bring on Grafton !!!

Yea Steve 30.93 is way SLOW. I just couldn't get temps up on the dunlops. The 1st 4 runs I had wheelspin in 2nd going up the short straight and heaps more from 3rd up the longer straight. There was no way I was gonna push through the fork with no traction. The 5th run was better and I was all primed on the 6th to take the fork flat out but bang the axle went. Next time I know what to do.

Neil,

Ill try burn the limited footage i got to dvd for you.

Jase

That would be great Jase,,,footage would help me get some sponsors on board. She's bloody quick,,,we just need to talk to one another a bit more. She wants to do her thing and all I want is for her to stop showing off.

I'll give her one thing though,,,It's a crack up when she farts about 30 secs after turning her off. BOOM,,,everybody shit themselves.

Neil.

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
