A Quick Introduction.

[Scott The Kiwi]

Hey Guys,

My name is Scott. I've just moved to Perth from New Zealand. Back home I was driving a Turbo Toyota MR2 and have definitely been bitten by the turbo+rear wheel drive bug. I was beginning get a bit of track time under my belt at home. Once I start working here I'm hoping to get another car to use on the track but this time I thought I'd go with something with the engine in the front. So I'll eventually be looking for an R32 gts-t or gts25-t as I've always liked them but never had one. ANyway I thought I'd introduce myself as I'll probably be lurking the forums for a while doing my research before buying one.

Cheers Guys.

Yeah If I could get a neat clean low-Km well-serviced TLC'd undamaged R32 I would be stoked. And reasonably un-modified would be nice too. I think it's going to be a long search.

Well like I said I was beggining to get a bit of track time under my belt but that all came to a rather abrupt halt. My skillls weren't anything flash, although I once got fastest MR2 at a street car day that the MR2 club went on , I was just out there to have a good time and to learn. The last track day I did was in April this year. At the start of the day my car looked like this:

But by the end of the day it looked like this:

No, I was very lucky. I didn't get a scratch. Just a bruised ego. It was an exciting ride. I was so pumped up with adrenalin afterwards. My hands were shaking like crazy.

Oh well, I'll try not to emulate that on a future warm-up lap.

Great footage tho'

What camera setup are you using?

It wasn't a warm-up lap. On those days you do one warm-up lap early in the morning and then each time you do a run you're free to go full tilt from the blocks. That was late in the day and I'd already had plenty of uneventful outings. It doesn't look fast in the video but I was doing 100-110ish when I went off.

The camera is just my we Canon handheld it was gaffa taped down to the centre console between the seats.
