frankxinyu Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 If japan didnt have goat tracks for racing the record would of been way lower oh and we are talking a 6 yrs ago boys. exactly, japanese do not have good tracks as we have, and that really limits their performance as well. as i said before, either way it is an awesome achievement, and very well done.

2rismo Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 exactly, japanese do not have good tracks as we have, and that really limits their performance as well. But they didn't break their own record when they raced at Willowbank... Easily the best prepared track in the country.

GT-R LM Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 But they didn't break their own record when they raced at Willowbank... Easily the best prepared track in the country. hks managed to get their best mph and were pretty close to their record with most of their runs in the 7's in willowbank,with more weight.
