Oran Park Gp Track Day Wrap Up Thread

[Abo Bob]

I never looked. Probably about 200 as I was short shifting all day.

[GoldZilla]

I think I was hitting around 170km/h at the end of the straight in the Stagea/LOLvo/LOLwagon, but I was concentrating more on where my braking points were or should have been, so I wasn't looking much at the speedo when the car was reaching its highest speeds.

[evil_weevil]

LOL

150 for me.....

and I was taking the kink closer to that speed too.

[quarkgun]

I think I got roughly 180km/h before hitting the anchors on the straight. I think I need a good tailwind to push me to the speed limiter

Yeah, 170 for me. I really wanted to hit the limiter, but just was too worried about slowing down for the turn. Maybe i shouldn't have worried so much, seeing as though i made the turn every time haha

[S13Deviat]

High 180's for me.. the little failvia needs moar huff!!! Plus wing will slow me down a good 10-12kms.. lose some top speed but gain rear traction x11ty!

Yeah Charles i agree, i was thinking the camera could be causing that but i have another photo from the rear with the camera on the passanger side, yet the wing is uber flexing on the same side.... DUNNO!?!?!? *shrugs*

[dnissi]

i hit over 200, then the airbag deployed LOL

I think you are meant to deploy the parachute, not the airbag. that or hold it in 3rd gear.

[S13Deviat]

i hit over 200, then the airbag deployed LOL

lol dont you hate when you hit the wrong button

I have footage of me coming around the kink and you pulling over after the incorrect deployment.....

Hope wasnt too much damage apart from windscreen!

[zebra]

that or hold it in 3rd gear.

hahahah

What you don't already when the tacho goes past 10k?

[andymoocow]

i got 180 according the power FC, could not get any faster than that

[benm]

Ive only been going up to 9000rpm so far, still getting a feel for it

Actually was way more confident in it at OP compared to Wakefield, I didnt once lock a brake, run wide, grab the wrong pedal by accident, miss a gear or anything it was a faultless day, just needed about another 3 sessions to start pushing faster lap times.

[blk180]

I wasnt watching the speedo that much but was off the 180kmph speedo. I was pushing hard all day trying to find mine and the cars limits think it was over 200kmph on the power FC when i came off on at the end of the straight.

Oooof! Have to say though, your car looked awesome mate i love it

[andymoocow]

Cheers mate.

Truth be told I didn't get around to flagging

~Jay~ with the blue 350Z stole my camera while he did the flagging though, also he took some pics during my session as can be seen from the photos of me driving my car

To tell the truth, I could have taken more photos but I spent a fair amount of time walking around and talking to people. The next OP day I'll try to get around to more corners for photos

just the windscreen

wouldnt mind seeing the footage

[jeffworld2]

I was sitting on the limiter in 4th for a while before slowing down a bit for the kink.. I had decided if i put it in 5th i would lose about 50m in the gearchange anyway, and it would only make my approach to T1 even more slippery

next time

[MaTBoY]

I was clocking 180km at the end of the straight. Maybe 190km max. my little turbine wouldn't pull me down the straight as quickly as some of the cars there.
