Fastest Track Going Gtr's In Au

[SilverECR33]

Hi guys,

Did a bit of searching around and noticed that, Most of the time attack lists and other times posted are all SAU related. Whos the Fastest track going GTR ( or Skyline) that is of course RB powered, In australia. And how do our fellow SAU drivers compare. Now obviously most of our SAU guys are privateers And i bet they are up there with the best of them, Sponsored guys and other Private guys who are Not SAU affiliated.

Maybe we can formulate some sort of list.

Unless someone knows of a list thats already out there I just cannot find

In Vic - the 4 fastest GT-R's I know of are: (all times on R Comp tyres)

1. Sam Marcov (R32 GTR) - times include 1.15 at Sandown and 1.29 at Winton

2. Ben Derks (Racepace R33 GTR) - 1.16 at Sandown and 59s at Calder

3. Frank Picconi (R33 GTR) - 1.31 at Winton and 1.43 at Phillip Island

4. John Kennedy (R33 GTR) - 1.16 at Sandown and 1.43 at Phillip Island

Not sure how the Berry/Newman (giant) GTR would stack up against these lot these days but I'd expect that they'd be right up there. Although I still don't see them touching the Marcov GTR yet.

yeh and he claims a 1:14 around the national track....thats average supercar times incase people arnt aware. Also those claims are made all on re55 semi slicks.

Also on a side note his car is a r33 gtst...not gtr.

[ferni]

so it's a street registered gtst doing v8 supercar laptimes on stree legal R-comp tyres? thats farken impressive!

[r33_racer]

you have no idea of how jealous i am of his braggings.

[ferni]

i'm not sure if you're being sarcastic - when you say braggings does that mean you don't believe he's run those times?

[r33_racer]

sarcasm was intended...naturally. If youve ever spoken to the bloke....youll know hes abit of a bragger and full of hot air.

Yeah I've seen a write up on that car, but seriously 52.8 (Sprint) and 1:14 (National) is just stupidly quick, that's over 2 seconds quicker than giant's car! I'd pay to see that

[r33_racer]

youd be paying for a very dissappointing nothing unfortunately. Cause ive seen his car and the write up and spoken to him several times....not a great deal of it is believeable.

[Marlin]

Yes exactly, forget that car and owner...... the jaws flap in a light breeze.

Sam Markov (SM Motorsport) 1.42's around the Island..............not too shabby for a bloke from the country.

Who cares if the car is quick. The thing is so well presented and built, thats enough for me. The fact that its damn quick to boot is a bonus. It is the best put together car i have seen around the traps. The level of finish is better then most State series cars

[Z1LLA]

Are there any pics around of the SM GT-R?

Anyone? or details of the car

I dont know much about the car, as i think its changed a bit since i had a good look at it.

Its a beautifully stripped R32, white wtih fully colour coded interior, single seat only. It used to run an Rb26 with a small single, around the 3076 mark. I have since heard it now has an RB30 with bigger single, but based on the results of lots of GTRs of late could have reverted to twins as last time i heard it out at PI it didnt sound like it was running a single.

Was running 17" wheels, neat cage and rationalised loom and wiring. The thng is beautifully prepared and i have an idea of some of the other mods it runs but cant be sure so wont speculate.

He used to own a red R32 with similar mods and state of tune, which was made from a spare Gibson shell. I understand he sold that car to a buyer in QLD and the white car is his EVO 2, incorporating the things he got right on the first car and fixing the things he got wrong

I always thought it was the same car, just resprayed. You learn something new everyday

I've got a pic of it on my other comp, I'll load it up when I get a chance.
