OK enough of that. Any more carry on will receive a warning.

Mark, sorry to see what happened, would have been great to see 2 leading skylines runs together. But as they say, "that's racing"..... I guess new shell will be easier than fixing since it is all triple skin back there, and shells are cheap.

x100, sorry to see. I saw the car running on saturday when I was down toward the end, and my oh my, she looked the goods ;)

I guess you an at least be thankful you managed to keep the front end off the wall, would have been a total disaster if she copped that hit in the nose!

thanks for the support guys...we have looked at the data and the front wheels were off the ground in first and 2nd gear hence the sharp turn to the left when the tyre landed...4wd is a nightmare...

car will be fixed in 2 to 3 weeks.. rear damadge is easy to fix...if it would have hit the front the car would have been a complete mess..right off..

our next event is on the 18th of sept at willowbank pro street shootout...we will be back ..

with all the data from the weekend we are very happy...except for the crash..ha ha

cheers, mark

Mark - great to hear your ok and the car isnt damaged to badly. It looked rather nasty, and sounded that way as well, but as you say rear damage is an easy repair in the right hands

I guess i may be sarting a rumor but i am sure i over heard one of the HTL team talking about leaving the car here and testing in Sydney.... would be awesome to see these 2 cars go head to head at some point in time soon :thumbsup:

Yeah its definitely staying, its over there to set the world record lower - that hasn't happened yet ;)

Also I believe they want to throw some street tyres on for lols and see if they can "adjust" that record as well while they have far stickier tracks to play with.

just got the log out of the car now...wheelspin and over rpm in 1st gear were the cause ...2nd gear went straight to 10500rpm on the shift... the axles are fine...

which basically means no slip in the clutch at all ..which softens the way the car gets down the track...

1.6 g impact into the wall at 50mph...oops..

car is being fixed this weekend should be finished next friday....

keep you guys posted...

Cool!

If there's any chance of advance notice of when it's going to be running some of us SAU guys could come up and watch :P

    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
