Hmmmm. I say its not so much the driver having moments of madness, its the car isnt as consistant as some, say a GTR where the balance between brakes and suspension vs power buy you a bit more room for error.

So how do you explain him taking out 7 cones in his first 6 events at Dutton behind the wheel of a GT-R? Not to mention falling in that same hole at the kink in Chris' car as he did in the video of Big Red. It can't all be simply because I wouldn't buy him a sausage! :whistling:

You shit stirrer Bris. I know what your doing.

I think you will be really suprised. As Chris said "But a good GTR driver will know that they can enter with slight understeer and push their car into oversteer by utilizing the 4WD" you will be really suprised. Adz also made the other point "A GTR is like driving a RWD but it just does everything faster". I belive they have to be corrected way quicker under power than a gtst as the front tyres do steer you.

They are different to drive and will compensate a bad drive but not to the point you would believe in a modified gtr as the bad driver will brake at the same point, carry less corner speed and straighten up before the power is going down and if the rwd and gtr have a good suspension setup they will carry the same corner speed so the driver is only really loosing out on a little lost exit grip.

Your thoughts????

Well mate. I dont have an answer for that? But i will say that you were a tad fortunate (by fortunate i mean God himslef got out of bed to come and stop you from writing off Chris's GTR at Winton, the day after you took out five or 6 cones) to have finished Dutton 06 with no scratches. :D A scratched rim would have been the damage of choice in light of what you cheated.

So we all have moments when we push. I have made plenty of fark ups. i dont mean to but it happens :huh:

Wow, someone has pace, nice driving. Finally Mr Brisby has met his match.

He already quicker then me. :laugh: No matter. Will be fun to sit back and watch the car go quicker and quicker as its developed as at present the thing is straight ot of the box.

Little RB20 is going to run out of puff in the next few track days, it doesnt have much speed left in it to combat the Adz, Ray, Matt and Dane onslaught that is coming :P

Your first track day at Sandown with 220rwkws or so and you pumped out a 1:24 didnt you? Thats damn impressive considering the amount of track work you had done (or more to the point hadn't done) and the car being straight out of car show!

That is damn impresive!!

Haha not quite mate, but I'll take the 24 if it's on offer! :)

I got a 1:25.09, it was my 3rd track day and 2nd at Sandown with about 200rwkw's. One more session and I would've cracked it I reckon, damn unreliable rex's dropping oil :teehee: My first track day which was Sandown I got a 28.

Still a while off of you yet, let alone what times I imagine you're going to run over the next few months Adam!

Andrew: Sorry mate, all I have is this showbag for you :D

My first (and only) track day at Sandown i did 1.22 - quick someone give me a medal.

Yeh thats scary good. It probably helps out of site that you have driven tracks like Winton and PI before you going there.

Dane, sorry, i thought you dipped into the 1:24s that day i was watching you. You had the Recaro and black LMs...was that your first or 2nd day???

Must have been your second as i remember you posted good times, must have been the low 1:25.

That was my second day Troy, first one was with Gold mesh BBS style rims :teehee:

All this talk is making me really antsy to get my car back for more of this action! I think I need some new tyres though :)
