World Time Attack Challenge 2011

[hrd-hr30]

Berry's 34 looks like a duck-billed platypus...

maybe the promoters can get some of these top end race cars to make the trip over next year?

[Marlin]

At least it's an Australian mammal lol

[R31Nismoid]

Ye having only seen the top half of it, i can only imagine how big the bottom half would be.

But it was all designed by a top aero dude, so i guess it must certainly have good purpose!

[Marlin]

Mark has already said he's going to need days to get his head around the aero grip. So it works, which is good.

[R31Nismoid]

That is really great to hear after the lengths that was required (and the sheer man hours) to make it all.

You lucky pricks up there better be updating this thread over the weekend while im working!

[DJRIFT]

Speedhunters has good coverage of this. far better sofar than last year. as they say a picture tells a thousand words.

but thats wing. gay

[Nee-san]

lol nsw is like another dimension, took us nearly two hours to get to.parra from airport, heading to ec now for a look

[T04GTR]

mayby i should put my efforts into a dr30..

at least it wouldnt be out of place 30 yrs after its race debut..

[Angus Smart]

its about time they put some aero constraints into place

its not like the aero has been tunnel tested, they could very well be going backwards..

[GTR32G]

I'm sure it is.

May be a slight problem when he can’t fit through the scrutineering garage or clips a spectator in the pits.

[nismoman]

If these cars with the extreme aero don't clock an incredible time, they are going to look even more silly.

[Russman]

I got on to John at UAS and he put me on to v-sport. They made up some lines for me on the spot so car is all ready for tomorrow. I'm Gee'd!!! Can't wait. The advan 34 has lost it's tuff look and looks more like the batmobile I'm looking forward to fast lap times from it.

Crazy aero everywhere!!!

[Roy]

Good luck to everyone competing. Have fun and hopefully the times will follow

[hrd-hr30]

well, these whacky aero bits certainly work...

great stuff from Mark Berry so far. Fastest Aussie and 3rd outright!

5th outright for the hammerhead S13!

[Marlin]

We're re corner weighting the 34, altering ride height and throwing some rubber on it now. Unfortunately there's just been a huge oil down that will kill the track for a while.

We're all very happy with it so far though, 32's aren't bad straight off the trailer, completely untested

[Snowman]

Super effort from the Mercury guys too in the 1.34's on their maiden lap!

[Ant97GTR]

Just checked the times....

HOLY SH1T.....Russman - awesome time so far

......and the big name workshop cars are putting in some great times esp considering some of the aussie built ones haven't had much development.

So sad I'm stuck at work and not in Syd for this

[kessian]

Am i missing something? Wheres the Scorch S15?

[sav man]

The Aus teams have really stepped up this year!

Did a dirty evo blow an engine, and put oil everywhere?

[Snowman]

My $$$ is on it being a rotor....
