yeah I was out there both days, so if it was a stickered up Dark purple GTR then that was me

heres a video of first session on Saturday morning which turned out to be my fastest, 65.50, second in the Street Class by 0.17 of a second to Franz in the Evo 8 MR

Nice footage and good time on street tyres there Richard. What camera are you running and also what street tyres exactly.

Did well to keep so close to Franz also on street tyres.. well done.

Hey - didn't keep it flat through the esses though??

[Nak]

yep it was you richard lol i was at the first bend on sat after the drifting when you's all started to roll out for the timed runs that 33 is still sounding very perfect lol

[tricstar]

nah no yellow sticker

sorry about the shit sound on the footage ( Go-Pro Hero ) I found what was rattling ..

as for not flat through the esses Matt, it all depends on the exit on corner 1, and on the street tyres ( Michelin Pilot Sport ) its pretty skatey with the change of direction and the dip , I'm reasonably happy with the time and to be that close to Franz

Unfortunately, due to boost leaks and who knows what, I was noticably down on power, instead of the usual 1.8 bar I was only seeing 1.4, both days more lag out of the corners, so that combination didn't help.

haha! I was only having a dig about not holding it flat on the esses mate.. with street tyres and circa 600hp (I'm guessing on 1.4bar) I doubt I'd be holding it flat through there!

Sorry I didn't make it up for a look and to say g'day.

Brakes still all good though obviously??

I'll hand my keys to someone if they promise to hold my car flat through the esses

I'm not paying for the funeral costs though

yeah not a chance in RWD

Its funny I thought did hold it flat, but I've just watched a few other vids from the event and no, maybe on semi's but not streets...

hey Simon the stocky performed well again, good work

mmm... not sure I am allowed to say... "..what happens in Vegas......."

I can tell you I drove a Lambo Murcielago for 5 laps at a track though!

Hoping to get to the McRae Twilight Sprint (or, as we like to call it - the rim killer track) on Dec 6th.

Aye, look at you guys living the Veva Loca . was it faster than the Silver Bullet ?? I'm sure theres a couple of strip club stories that don't implicate you

did you come home with a bag full of goodies for the car ??

My bro just back from driving a 458 through Switzerland and France for 10 days, was blown away by the car as you'd expect.. Gotta get me some Supercar action

In the mean time I gotta get exhaust manifold and turbo off and sort boost issues, will try and make that round, really like those courses, averaged about 5 seconds better than Gav in the last one we did but I think about 10 seconds behind Franz so different to the track

yeah, boy the course claimed some rims that night
