Pitty the time attack is only the drift course. PJ will win it with his eyes closed

It is? News to me :) .

Drift Car V Time Attack Challenge will be FULL TRACK!!! :)

3 x 2 lap battles with 1 car from each motorsport type on track together roughly half a lap apart (ie. same format as indoor track cycling).

PJ is now unable to attend, but never fear we now have Barwicks 600HP Yellow Torana (faster than O'Keefe this year I think). The RX7 is owned and driven by Chris McDermott.

Just a reminder this is event is NOT only a drift event, 3 motorsport formats on show in the one program.

Will definitely be epic and I will definitely be trying to win the drift car v time attack challenge :D .

well to be fair club days or super sprints are kind of a time attack as when you go to the drivers breifing they always say you are racing the clock not the other competitors and with the results at the end of the day its all times based even if they dont award places for the best times.

it was a good day. good event and the time attack was entertaining.

      yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
