QR sprints from the weekend

found the official timing to be a fair way out compared with video/GPS which agreed with each other.

another vid from my 180SX at Lakeside today. I was trying a wing and splitter. Certainly made a difference, but I didn't really like it. It caused a bit of understeer and didn't improve my lap times, but didn't get heaps of clear laps in.

reduced the angle of the wing. But blew another tyre this session - front right blew out as I turned into Hungry. Resulting off damaged the new front bar, front right gaurd and pushed the splitter into the castor rod bracket which also bent. Its not too bad, but I have some work to do before the Australian Supersprint this weekend.

the gtr must have been very frustrating

[hrd-hr30]

it was a little, but he did signal me through eventually. Nowhere near as frustrating as the repeated Kumho delaminations though. Not only was this the second blowout in as many events, but it was only the 4th track day since I bought them brand new in March. And it turns out the front left was also delaminated and could have let go at any moment... I got off lightly considering what could have happened if one let go on the high speed sections.

So I had to fork out for new rubber for this weekend's Australian SuperSprint Championships at Morgan Park. Great weekend at a very cool track, with a bunch of fellow SAUer's. Here's some in-car from my nugget S13 - she's looking a bit beaten up after going a few rounds with the Kumhos last week.

Top work Ash, good to see you handing it to the 4WD's. Love the diving under brakes

In R18 or R17? I remember Dunc (?) saying something about the R18's having that problem in

his door to door racing category, in another thread.

Thanks Paul.

Its hard to run with the 4wd's on the short track, they put the power down better exiting the tight turns

How are you going? I haven't seen you on the track for a while

Ash

[hrd-hr30]

ssxricho, mine were R17's.

[evil_weevil]
