Well yep, Kev gave me some pointers and I had a fantastic day.

Great practise for Dutton Rally and I slowly improved throughout the course of the day!!

Thanks for your help Kev.

That was sooo much fun, more than expected!

Ok, so Scothfinger has risen the bar....i always thought a 1:21 is about it for a neatly modded but std turb GTR...now just how fast can the cheater go on ceramics?

Top day!!

Had a ball, car is still alive, except for the rear brakes... yowzers

No wonder I was getting taily under braking, it's metal on metal. Whoops!

Congrats to all who ran PB's, and very, very impressive Chris, mucho respecto

He, he, he, thanks guys - I just keep taking it out and driving the wheels off it. Hopefully that continues to be the rubber wheels and not the ceramic ones!

Didn't feel I put together a 100% super lap at any point in the day. So a 1.20 is achievable if I can actually get some sleep before an event. But I think that might be about all the car can give.

So you think it could creep into the high 1:20s? Thats damn quick for a reasonably std car. Blindibly quick...in my dreams i hoped to be able to pull a 1:22 out of my car, so to be 2 seconds off i suppose i have to admit those GTRs arent too bad

Im thinking of going to Calder this sunday if I can get some new pads and tyres by then.

Anyone else up for it?

[Roy]

If only i had a car

[Roy]

Actually, im so desperate to drive i will be more then happy to donate my one day old RE55s on 17" wheels for the day, if i get to do some sessions in the car Actually any part needed off my car im willign to throw on their car for the day

You guys have no idea how hard it is watching you folk have fun out there:(

[phunky_monkey]

hahaha let's call it payback for Winton

Calder would be great, but I have no rear brakes... and I doubt I'll have them sorted by then...

Actually are they still up for sale? What size is it

[Snowman]

I'm going to Calder.

Be good to finally drive fast again and see how the car goes.

[Snowman]

$200 for Calder is a killer though

Damn, that is a killer.......hmmmmmm

[STOCKGTR]

Looks like everyone had fun. Hope there were no incidents?

I was stuck laying floors at home

A guy is meant to be transferring money into my account, so if the money hasnt been transferred by Friday...then?!?!?!

They are 235/45/17s.

And its $200 for entry? Well that changes things a little as i may just go on a Wednesday when i get my car back...more laps that way.

Well that was fun... perfect weather for my first track day! big thanks to all the guys who put the day on and everyone who helped out being flaggies etc... also thanks to the WRX club guys (murph & Jason) who were my instructors on the day... they let me fly solo in the last session and I grew some balls and recorded my PB for the day 1.32 which isn't toooo bad I didn't think? but mostly just glad I brought home the car in one piece, the brakes, oil temps and tires were great all day (I mustn't be driving hard enough hehe)
