Huntley Hill Climb 28th May

[scathing]

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. 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

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
