Tip top tip for buying old battlefield games: no server support because they all jump on the latest BF to keep up with demand.

I bought bad company 2 a few weeks before BF3 came out. werent any games to join once it came out.

Saw COD Black Ops 2 for $10 as well...

Haha tbh I'm not a huge FPS fan - I didn't buy those. I bought Pokemon (W2 and SS), so... LOL. Although I did get Infamous 2 and Uncharted 2 for my PS3 which I never play :P.

I did a 1:49 at Winton and 1:33 at Sandown on my stock turbo setup

mines still OEM turbo.....

it's all about getting round corners to start with, power helps later.

eg i followed Clive in his daily lancer like 100KW at the treads, and at PI he just wasn't using brakes flying through the corners think he had a sub 2min with that.

That's it!

Go suss it out i reckon, tho drift sales usually has some big lemons for sale on it this one looks decent! Kinda looked like he had P's up in the pic he posted but think it was the rego sticker diff colour with sun glare. Maybe compression test and what not if you buy it incase? MP 33R's are baws. :thumbsup:

My Winton the other weekend was a 1:50 with only one full session out there near the end of the day, Racechrono stitches together your best segment times to give you the ideal lap from the session, and it was a 1:47... Just could not string a solid lap together :(

Hoping Sandown will be a little better once I get some grip on the front as well

I opened my blinds last night before I went to bed... woke up 2 hours early with the sun coming in my window

Left for work at 8am, normally takes me 50 minutes... arrived at work at 9:25.

Fuuuuuu dodgy traffic lights, road works and accidents.

Right hand turn lane from Clayton Road onto Wellington/North Road Citybound was only triggering every second set of lights, and then, only letting 2-3 cars through at a time. Broken sensor I think.

Then all the way along North Road was backed up because some retards decided to start their Road Works in peak hour instead of waiting an hour until the traffic died down.

Is that with your new Achilles 123s tyres?

If so how did you find them compared to the RSR's?

My RSR's were the "new compound" which is ratshit compared to the old compound that they got their great bang for buck name on. They jacked the prices, and cut the grip down...

I had like 60% 235 RSR's on the front, and new 265 123S's on the back, so it was just understeering everywhere, I couldn't get over 100km/h on the left hand sweeper at the start of the back section at Winton without the front wanting to walk.
On the skidpan at DECA I'd snap 2nd and it would just be sideways the entire length of the pan, with these on the rear it just throws you forwards and pulls like a freight train :D

123S is boss, at $440 fitted for 2 x 265 18, $400 fitted for 2 x 235 18, you can't go wrong.

Not sure how fast they wear... I've just swapped back to my daily street wheels for now so I'm not ripping through really expensive stuff. Will put the RSR's up for sale on DriftSales, someone will want some mad front grips for their drift car yo.

ordered a pair today for the s14, should be entertaining.

i think the big issue for these "semi slicks" yes i know they not real ones, is heat cycles, the RE11 I tried were great, for maybe 5 sessions then were gone for good.

KU36's maybe 5 track days.

I got around 15 on my RSR.

R888 real semi's never had a heat issue, but naturally wore out b4 the heat killed them.

thus why AD08's so good, they handle the heat better than the rest.

    • For what it's worth (I'd never looked at the button closely enough to work out it has a person on it!) with the switch 'active' double-pressing the unlock on the remote will cause lights to turn on. As I recall it will cycle through plain-unlock, unlock-with-park-lights and unlock-with-headlights as you repeatedly double-press unlock.
