Thanks, Paul, for organising this. Great afternoon, despite the glitsch at the beginning. By the way, I have just logged my phone out of your Hotmail account ... ... .... !!!!

You did want to order a year's supply of Viagra and to help that nice man in Nigeria with his $25,000,000, didn't you? :down:

Hopefully, the Pulsar will just have the two boys in it next time and won't have to work so hard ..... .... .... and I'll be in the R34!

That would be good.

Great to meet everyone again and some new faces too. I am glad it wasn't just me failing on the handbrake turns. It was much easier years ago in the UK on the ice, wet sand, anywhere slippy!

Cheers. :D

yea it was a great day cheers paul :) Next time ill definatly NOT have standard suspension cant beleive how much understeer it had :)

Don't be surprised about understeer from a Skyline. Changing the suspension won't change that completely. The straight six is a big lump up front, so any Skyline (particularly a GTR) is going to struggle on the skidpan/autokhana - slower into the corner works better, to an extent, because you get better turn in. If you get out onto Barbagallo, you will be able to practice trail braking, which helps the transfer of weight and the turn in - which is much harder to make effective on the skid pan.

In short, don't expect expensive suspension to deliver a solution to understeer - you need to drive it better as well! :P

(Spoken from bitter experience .... ... ... and still learning!)

Cheers. :laugh:

haha yea man i wasnt expecting it to fix it completly, just make it a bit better. the other thing that was killing me was the body roll, through some of the corners it would throw the weight further than i was expecting. but yes i do need to learn more about what its going to do which is why im going to all these days :laugh: cheers for feedback :P
