Yeah...

I was just learning how to use my new camera, so the pics aren't as good as they should be :)

Anyway, here they are:

Merli how did those XR6's go around the track???

Cheers

Noticeably slower than the skylines... I was taking photos all day, and lap after lap I could see the order of cars changing that the XR6Ts were obviously getting overtaken by all the other cars...

Could just be inexperienced drivers? Or they might have been taking it easier? Too many factors to take into account really...

But yeah, they were definitely a little slower than the other cars out there, but still pretty good! (They were stock too)

from the track's point of view, the xr6 drivers were definately new to it all, but they all got progressively better and better with confidence.

they are quick down the straight though! i wasnt making any yards on them!

those are the very same simex tyres..

I had trouble trying to drift that last corner, the car just comes in and understeers or oversteers. By the time I figured it out they got shitty with me for drifting. Also took out ABS for this day... makes a big difference on track when you get used to it.

I had HEAPS of fun on the hairpin getting some very nice drifto around that, but alas the simex's are well and truely FARKED! I had no traction out there so drift was the only option. I think I will have to sit out on the next track day to get the tyre situation sorted.

Franky has video of me sideways up the top of the track, so I cant wait to see that.

yeah tell me about it. I dont think I have ever laughed so hard, especially when we headed down the straight and saw the guy fingering the red flag.

Very funny stuff.

Or when you were being a total maniac by drifting and doing helis all over then track...then the guy in front gets red flagged!!! LOL!!! what a classic!! I'm sorry, but it was so worth killing your brakes and tyres over :rolleyes:
