This car doesnt have Ti tips......the complete Ti tip exhausts available have them welded on

SlipR35,

what happened to the T1 seats?

[Martin Donnon]

Time for an update on this one. A great example of a car thats driven rather than garaged the SlipR35 has been out and about so far this year and with some exception all round results. The highlight of which was the outright P1 at Mt Alma Mile the fastest and most hotly contested hillclimb on this side of the nation

Several Time Attacks finishing in the Top 5 (on radials) and slick shod 12 second laps of Mallala all show how good this car is, particularly it has a new carbon set of skins on it - rear bar, front bar, bonnet, fenders, doors...its got the lot

Working out hard this weekend as course car at the Adelaide Hills Tarmac Rally...and looking dirty, like a properly used GTR

And there goes ALL the silver..........It was only a matter of time

for the CARBON KING!!!

SlipR35, what happened to the T1 seats?

The Technocraft seats had be be replaced with FIA/CAMS approved items for the cars competition work. That was done some time back now

Why'd you go for the optional super silver when you bought the car Seb?

Oh and it was more impressive watching your loosely termed "course car" tearing up wickhams hill than 90% of the competitors!

I think Seb was just trying to put a price on Carbon.....

Fungoolie, show us the vids please, thanks, ta

Was good to see you Dave. That was a fun stage with some tight hairpins and quite a bit of loose gravel all over the road for the first few k's. GTR went well all weekend and never missed a beat.

I wonder what effect this will have on julia gilamonster's proposed carbon tax.

[Martin Donnon]

We 'fixed' the exhaust on this car over the past couple of days, its a proper centre exit system now, completely unmuffled, and quite the flame thrower!

I think a video is in order. Stat
