Rumour has it that Jack Monkhouse rolled his car!!!!!

whoa that was like so last year lol.

took him like 2 weeks to fix haha

lesson learnt today "Dont listen to rumours"

yeah richo, im no top 16 drifter yet, so youll have to look lower down for my name it is too much grip when the car wants to grip up around turn 1, not cool.

Yeah jack rolled his old 180 last year shaun, during the left hand of the ess's, bounced over ripple strip and did a full roll and landed on his side, was not pretty too watch, i mounted that corner a few times when i was learning and its a rough one.

See you all at Round 2!

hahaha fair enough. maybe I was looking at the top 16.

Try carrying more speed onto turn 1 and perhaps you need to be more aggresive when throwing the car around to get more momentum and avoid the rear from gripping.

I know what you saying though, cause it used to happen to me as well when I started using brand new tires for the rear.

You will get used to it, no need for more power 300rwkw is heaps

What sort of tires and size are you running at the rear anyway? I was running Maxxis Z1 at last G1, and they grip like hell!

Is it eddie modra in the green sprinter? His new engine died before he even got to qualify!

think a few cars had gearbox issues, few overheating problems here and there also, but yeah only 1 dead engine

That sucks! Funny thing is...I put a message on NS saying that I wasnt going to go to this G1 because of the weather, and he replied saying he was so confident about his sprinter in this heat due to his GTR radiator in it and how big it was on such as small car. Goes to show, you can never be too sure, new engine too, shit.

Bad luck, I hope he gets it all sorted soon.

im using Corsa's, fairly hardy tyre, size is 235/45/17 stretched on a 9.5" rim.

So no need for more power with 300kw? No worries, ill stop when i get there im only just over 200 at the moment.

[JDM032]

one day u mite have that power,

go for a Garrett 35/40 bb those things are insane and will work perfect on ur 25

[skylineguy19]

i already have a big enough turbo, 600hp capable. All i need is my new injectors and im set for my goal power of 270rwkw, dont see myself needing more than that and should still be relatively safe amount of power for stock internals.
