Mallala Open Track Day

[23 GTR]

Michael, yours sounded tough as out there today! Noticed smoke come from underneath the car under deacceleration/down shifts, I presume power steering fluid dropping on the exhaust?

You're right Luke, it was the power steering fluid.

Nice program^^^. How did it create the map of mallala? Through google maps etc or just traced your path? You planning to head out agin soon, definetly want to see this thing in action!

so was the club car porsche lapping in the 1:13's ? if so then the R35 will eat it up when you do some tuning and tyres

Looking at it, I would say it uses GPS tracking technology.

210kph thru the kink? Too bad, just 15kph shy of what my bike can do

[nisskid]

If I knew about this 'open day' I would of been there as a spectator in a flash.

I was at mallala on the 5th Driving a V8 super car

I woulda camped the night if i knew this was happening the day after tho

[Madaz]

Joeleo - do you mean a trackskill car because i wouldn't put them in the same class as a super v8

do you always have to compare apples to oranges

[RubyRS4]

do you always have to compare apples to oranges

Yep

Didn't everyone know? Go two wheels, gain some balls

[tryandcatchme]

like children at a competition,we all know how fast bikes go,this sites called skylines not bikes r us,otherwise a lot of people would have heaps of stuff to say,accidents and all that,keep it constructive,this sites getting worse,we all know who the try hards and posers are,dont stoop to that level guys

Aussie superbikes can get up to 280 on that back straight.... rubys Brutale could easily do that 225...

[c0ris]

the R35 and porsche were the highlights of the day for sure. The sound that porsche made when it came past pit straight was near ear bleeding level when standing on the other side of the concrete wall.

Cottees bro... you have that shit straight, sends you loopy.... cheap as...

[SLED]

lol, I'd be lucky to do 1/2 that speed on that kink on my 2 wheel (10ft long) tractor

"no bike" is a pretty big statement.............Rossi or Stoner may have something to say about that on their lightweights

some of these guys below do similar bends on the Isle of Mann at 260kph on one wheel.........unfortunately this guy didn't quite make the bend, ouch!!

Isle of Mann bend at 256kph

[180or200]

At a guess it made the map with a G sensor, my go kart data logger would do the same thing

A current spec litre bike will exit the top of turn 3 at around 60km/h and then have 200 metres to accelerate to peak speed before gentle braking or a complete roll off into the kink. There is no such thing as holding a 180-200ps superbike through the kink flat on conventional road tyres, and there are very few that could roll through there at a genuine 230km/h. The more powerful the bike, the more the back straight gets divided into two straights with a bend in the middle

Mallala is always the same story. It seems no matter who you speak to, or how slow their lap times are the bike/car car goes into the kink at 180 - 200km/h. Fact is an R35GTR, one of the quickest production cars you can buy, and capable of an 11 second quarter in stock form, fires out of turn 3 with full traction and enters the kink at an ACTUAL 180km/h, absolutely flat to the boards. Data logging like this, rather than a quick glimpse at the speedo, tells the whole story, even if it doesnt sound so cool

I think you have a point there given the wheel slip/loss of actual speed but I for one would love u to lend ruby ur tracking kit.... looks hardcore good (certainly looks better than the home made telemetry system im building)
