You GT-R boys are getting further and further away... :)

LOL...jokingly thats what i was thinking. Rewind 2 years if i had of had better fortune with my car and got the whole Racepace tune thing happening sooner the first few outings of the R32 would have had it posting quicker times then most the GTRs :huh:

Problem is all the cheaters are getting way more track time and are now kick ass drivers in kick ass cars. The time for the rwd boys is been and gone, consider 2005 the high water mark of when a rwd guy could have given GTR guys shit :(

Been lucky enough to be a passenger in a car that did a 1:19 with me in it...and i dont care what car you are in, to do those times you are punting the thing damn well.

So hats off to you mental defectives who leave your sanity at the front gate :)

GT3? Man im stoked to have the old girl back moving around under power and making noise! :thumbsup:

Out of interest Jack, is that it, or you think there is still a bit in it? Were you running fresh rubber. Its scary to think a road car can maybe still improve

LOL...its time to get the SAU "I bagged a teen at Sandown" stubbie holders going >_<

OR, maybe commemorative shirts. Perhaps "Jack is the Stig" shirts :happy:

bah porkas... the black 911 had a BIG spin right in front of me in the first corner... the look on his face was priceless... the speed with which it just suddenly swapped ends was frightening

you guys just need some stockish GTR's to take to the track... but the again what does Scotsman do around there, 1.21's or something!? hehe

that little blue S2000 was cool... supercharged and running pretty decent times... I followed him for a bit but he was lightening quick through the corners... I want one

yep set a pb and I guess that's what its all about... possibly could have gone faster but the wobble from the rotors in the braking area was getting real bad and I had a big off at the sweeper when I ran wide onto the grass... managed to get it back onto the black stuff and still pointing the right way, so decided to call it a day at that point;)

next time I am going to pack a spare set of undies and I won't have to go home to change hahaha

majorly addicted now and hope to make it to more rounds of the SAU championship next year

2 wheels is fun (and cheaper... yay)

Don't worry Dane, You'll still be able to beat me :laugh:

:thumbsup::laugh:

Anyway, you GTR guys are taking it to a completely different level. If your times continue to fall next year it will be interesting to see if it forces then hand of CAMS????

Anyway, the rwd class looks like its going to be a hoot next year :laugh: and good work NickR33 punching out a PB. To the best of my knowledge thats the quickets street tyre time for a Skyline/Silvia etc

Thanks for the compliments guys, I've been walking around with a smile on my face all day....

Tyres were 3 meetings old (now 4), so I guess with fresh rubber times might have been slightly better, but in saying that the car had heaps of grip, always did....

Following JFK around really opened my eyes in where I could go faster, so I thought if his car could do it so could mine...

I can confidently say that there is more in it, as turn 1 is a bit tricky, still haven't worked out my braking point and being off camber can throw you to the other side of the track very easily...

The back section after the straight is very intimidating, but if you have the right line you will surprised how fast you can take it, even when the car is walking across the track....

Jack the Stig - does that mean I have to wear a really cool helmet and listen to 'Whitesnake' when Im racing????
