I always like watching in car footage :yes:

What's done to the car? She looks like a bit of a handful in some spots, but having said that I've never driven PI. It looks like you're really wide on a few of the corners, but again that is probably my lack of knowledge of that circuit.

Respect for putting up footage of yourself :thanks: You're a bit calmer when you have an off than I am, I get Tourettes syndrome.

Eek. PI is pretty scary when the weather is changable. Slick in parts but ok in others leave me with no idea of grip levels. Better when it just poors and its slippery everywhere :kiss:

Hope you didnt have too much fun in your road car, you may find it starts getting parts of the race car :D ...and that means the race car stays a statue in the back yard :)

Car is basically stock with FMIC, and 14 psi of boost Eibach springs and KYB AGX shockers. I still had 40kg+ of stereo gear and spare tyre in the back to try to weight the car better.

Handful yes, Hicas is still working which made it pretty skittish. I think inexperience on my part for most of the errors.

Exploring the grip on RE55's is exciting especially when they are cold :D

I learned heaps on the day and managed to pull 10+ seconds off my first lap till the 3rd session. I ws badly held up by traffic in the last session whihc was a shame as I think there was another 2 sec's in the car.

The white and silver R33's where very very fast.

Plenty of fun times to look forward to when the real race car is finished. :kiss:

The off's where quite funny, I was actually quite calm. The 4wd track :) seemed to be in slow motion. I had a heap of time to think what to do. Couldnt turn so waited for the tyre wall to finish before I turned it. :) Would have gone straight across into the wall if I had of gone straight over the road.

Couldnt see the edge of the tarmac due to the sun sitting on the road. Only overcooked it a bit :D

Well done, looks slippery and pretty hairy in parts. I am sure you had to check you paints after the off over the top section at lukey heights looking at that tyre barrier coming up pretty quick - i think i moved to the left of the screen watching it!!!!

Looking at the times, which cars were the white and silver R33's?

      Alpha omega racing bracket

      Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far

      The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
