Well the weather was great, my car had a lot of work done to it last week and was ready to do some really decent times, I should've been able to do a 1:40 flat because last time I did a 142.

I didn't even get to do 1 flying lap because my car broke :santa:. Unfortunately the car only worked for Adam's first four laps and he got a silly 139 in it, very disapointed that I didn't get to have a good run... Next time!

Jack you are absolutely crazy, so smooth, thanks for the ride in your car!

No mate, I spoke to him though.

He looked like he knew what he was doing.

I think Adrian was his name. I got his business card which has a link to all his photos.

He said that photos of our event should be up in the coming week.

I will post up his details shortly so all can see. :D

Great shots! :santa: Were you the guy pointing the massive camera lens at cars coming through the S bend?

Here are a couple of laps of the Group 1 super sprint from my car: http://www.gtauto.com.au/movies/WintonSS.wmv 29mb.

Nice work Wayne!!!

Looks like your car is very sorted suspension wise, handles very well and no major under/oversteer.

I guess with that turbo its very responsive and doesn't come on boost hard trying to throw the car off the track...

What happened to Matt?? Did something go wrong??

Jack - Open wheeling diff & sh!t suspension.. I couldn't get power down, car didn't ride flat thru the corners, too much roll..

Well done Wayne, all that go-karting experience gives you great driving skills. See you at Sandown :thumbsup:

Matt...like i said, even with the slightly soft suspension and open wheeling diff. There is still time in your car if you have of just got out there and kept lapping. I bet if you had of continued driving you woudl have bagged a 1:39 (SERIOSULY)!

I did get 1:39.9 >_< There is alot more time in my car with the right setup (and more driver skill :thumbsup:) I know what you're saying but I wasn't happy with the suspension setup, and would be just burning rubber and fuel. Always next time.

Yeh, i was just frustrated that i wasnt able to get my car there. I woudl have seriously paid your entry just to do a few laps in your car :thumbsup:

Instead the only sport i got on the weekend was darts and drinking beer...oh and some pin ball >_<

HAHA, Darts was one of the highlights of my weekend, I've never laughed so much!! The Brisby quick draw dart technique... Nice! And our great selection of tunes, go the oldies.... :) And the pinball machine that was about to give someone the electric shock of their life because of the faulty wiring...

I wish we had video footage of Newton stabbing the dart into Mav's leg...

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Victory · Posted

      All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.

      It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.
