Yea Steve 30.93 is way SLOW. I just couldn't get temps up on the dunlops.

Yeah, a couple of my mates with racing (semi) slicks complained that even with the burnout they couldn't get enough heat into their tyres.

I ran a high 29sec in my stock Z33 on street rubber (they took the times down off their web site), and the fastest from my club on the day was a 27.01 in a light/medium tune S15 on a set of hillclimb-compound semi slicks.

And the GT-R can nevar lose, so you need to get some tyres that will stick. :dry: Or maybe wind the power down a little - its not that important at Huntley.

If I hillclimb again (and I probably will) I'll stick to my street rubber, since I'm not going to shell out good money for a set of dedicated hillclimb tyres.

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.

Yeah i know - i need to have another go with a decent stopwatch and a passenger doing it for me :thumbsup:

Yeah with the temp its a shame you cant go down the road and back a few times to get some temp first

The class record for the GTR class is a 27.........ill have a good go at it very soon mate :dry:

    • Nope, still smaller rear, put on the 4inch exhaust and picked up power everywhere, ended up just shy of 800rwhp.   Didn't seem to be hitting any walls either, so perhaps could have pushed for more but all maybes and the fish that got away etc etc. 
    • Races cars don't care for VIN either...
    • This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.
    • Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛  
    • Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it
