yep your right Paul, i definately wasnt having traction issues with mine.

next time im going to run with less fuel, i had a full tank because i trailered my car there, gonna try under half a tank next time. and a few more little tricks

Hahaha none of those tricks here mate, sh!t tyres, full fuel tank, stereo playing aswel haha plus 110kg of driver :D

im keen for the next one, i really wanna beat that time, i heard that if his record is broken he will bring his car back to aus to win it back, and if i win it i will be there waiting for him so we can have a hill climb battle :D

is that when your doing a massive burnout and then they make you sit on the bench for 2 runs :rofl2:

not at the redneck hill climb event.

the current record is set by an evo lancer from europe that has won pikes peak, ran 23.88 and i ran 24.51 from memory or there abouts in my almost stock GTR

i cant believe you are 1/2 sec off the lap record...what model evo is this? any pics of it?

also, is the evo prupose built for this event or is it a porduction car with simple mods?

either way, you must be a very skillful driver!

Lol, something like that!! I just went "come on that's a skid, want me to show you a burnout?!" then on went the radio and I watched the others have their goes hahaha

If you take the record I'll be cheering!!! Paul is in the 24's, he needs grip and he's got it. Also Brett (not on here, White 32, stock motor, steel wheeled stock turbos, etc RE55's though) did a 25.3 I think, it was with 250rwkw lol, so yeah the old men know we will get there.

Better tell the evo guy to organise freight then ;)

Oh also, I'll get some decent rubber for the next one I'm in.

I may miss the next one due to mods being done to the hotside but I'll try. Either way, you know I'll be there to support you guys

Someone pinch Berry's 33 or 34 lol

Why bother, we all drive there, full interior, stereo and aircon. We are all in the top 30%, then drive home after in the same cars with no mechanical faults time after time.

It's great to see the faces when they realise these are true street cars.

haha you know it :D

the evo is purpose built.

i remember a few of the old guys asking how much GTR's are worth, they seem keen to get in the seat of one

Haha. Yeah. Those guys in pupose built hillclimb machines.... IE Twin engined crap, on slicks, areo. Yep we still beat them. Stipped out commo's with cages and slicks.... 2-3 seconds behind. The commentator reckons I have an auto box! What a loser!

FFS. We have to get that vid on here to show these guys what it's about!

    • I did not go to GTR Festival. It's quite a long drive and the car wasn't dialed in yet. I also wanted to see how the racing portion went before going. From what I can tell the classes were not heads up, index, or bracket - just whoever has the quickest ET wins. Never heard of that sort of thing before and maybe some people like it but it's not my cup of tea. I don't suspect I'll go if that is how the racing is done. I did get the car out three times and had issues each time. Some were my error - haven't raced the car in over two years - and others were parts. Had trouble getting the clutch to slip correctly and remembering how it was set up in the Haltech. Broke some drivetrain parts as well that couldn't be fixed in a couple days to get back out. Season definitely didn't end the way I wanted but at least the bearings are still fine! Not a fleck of material in the filter. Really hoping next year is the year I can actually test this car properly. 
    • find it funny everyone claims different fuel chains, do different things with their fuel blah blah blah. We don't have that many fuel terminals in Australia. The fuel tanker trucks drive into the terminal, fill up, and drive directly to the service station and dump out. The majority of fuel you get, is coming out of the same terminals. The variation is actually at the individual service stations and how good their tanks are, as well as how much turn over they actually have. Older fuel stations, that haven't had their tanks replaced are going to end up with the worst fuel. Also a lot of older stations have shit design, and shit maintenance, and end up with more water absorption into the tank. This is when you then get a bad batch of fuel. Other shit things happen, like tanker drivers have a f**k up, and starting to unload the wrong compartment on their truck into the wrong tank. 
    • Yeah go with that one 
    • This one?? In other news: I cannot tell the difference between my red MX5 with the silver grey hard top......... and the Ferrari 599XX EVO, they might as well be twins, well.......apart from the big wang hanging off the back of the Ferrari...🤔🤣, without the wing they are identical
