Yep - I'm officially stoked.

I ran a 1:24.76 on my 4th session. BIG thanks to Snowy for showing me some lines - that really helped. It was a 4 second PB for me! :thumbsup:

I'm even happier with the results considering the car is essentially a exhaust and tune (230awkw) and some semi comps. Stock suspension and brakes at this point. I can't wait to get back out there with some suspension.

Mav - No worries mate!

Bring on the next track day! :angry:

Here is some of the footage I took from Sandown (19/8/07)

Some external footage (mostly commodores and 1 VW) I sat out this session due to some noise issues which were fixed later in the day.

Save as - 12mb

My fastest lap for the day - 1:25:91 :thumbs:

Save as - 6mb

The first supersprint - Hung (red classic porsche) jumped me off the line but couldn't quiet make the LHS of the camera shot, sorry Hung, nice try! :giggle:

Save as - 31mb

I didnt actually run so my car is still in one piece :D

Meh, after your cheap shot at my car. Coming to a track day with not enough pads idoesnt fly. Hell, even i changed my pads on Saturday as the old ones were a little past 50% :thumbsup::angry::P

I had two sets of new DS3000 front pads with me. But i'm saving myself for the real race.

Start of the day, pads = 80%

End of the day = 15%

here's a few of my in-car vids

My quickest lap - 1:33.2

Passing the blown Banana, that was a sad site

Good vids people

Dont even bother replying mate. I was only stirring....plus i am just tired and shitty, and probably a little sensitive. My car will have to continue to be an unreliable wreck as im not going to commit the money it requires to get the car to the level of some others :) It will do me. It just hard to sit back and watch so may other guys go so quick :D

The Stig was on a mission for a 17, but driving with anger was not going to cut it.... Smooth is the Stig's style, but the gearbox wasn't up for another session...

Although it was great entertainment for the spectators, so I was told anyway.....

That it was Jack, that it was!

Nice work too Matt, that's really f**kin quick for an essentially stock car!

Jenny (Timetronics) didn't know how to prepare that sheet, we tried but it wasn't grabbing the lowest times.

Ian returns from timing the V8's at Oran Park today and I have already asked him to prepare the summary page and post it on the natsoft site.

So stay tuned. ;)

    • Depending on exactly where that voltage is being measured, that is most likely the battery is f**ked. If the multimeter probes are on the battery's own terminals, then it is f**ked. If they are on the car's terminals, then there is a bad connection. Either are fatal to the attempt to start it. Literally just put it on the 20VDC range, put one probe on the battery's -ve terminal (ideally not the car's terminal) and the other on the block somewhere exposed/metal, like an engine mount bolt head. You can also test the earth lead is steps, so from battery to body earth, body earth to engine connection point, engine connection point to some other spot on the engine, to see if you can isolate where a shit connection actually is.
    • I meant to write 50 originally and then double checked the price and found it was ¥12m (125k) and came to edit it and realized I had accidentally added and extra 0 in the first place lol 
    • I wonder if the n1 was cheaper when bought new 
    • Only reason I started replacing hoses was I went for a short drive to the shop the other day and finished shopping and started the car and started to drive off and could see a big trail of fuel in the rear view mirror. Parked up and found the bottom hose to the fuel filter had busted. Lucky I was near a car part store and was able to get a replacement hose and back on the road. But got me thinking I had owned that car for around 20 years and was all original fuel hoses so probably time to replace all of the fuel hoses. Was pretty lucky it went where it did.
