R32 Stuart Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Turn 5 has also been changed due to the extra pit lane added to the outside of the curb meaning you can put all 4 wheels over the curb (which isn't a curb, just a concrete strip dividing the track from the pitlane). The exit of Turn 9 is also much wider giving better exit speeds. Laptimes will be easily a full second quicker than last year prior to any car development. We find with the changes to 6 - 7 - we are slower up over the hill in the R33 and the AU, it hasn't changed our exit speed at 9 on data yet, but definitely less grass and dust entering vehcile. The above surfboard splitter - would actually be legal to run in CAMs 2A closed sports cars bar width - must have some good front springs, if it gets up to 200kms it would have 4 tonne of downforce. He will need 20 ply front tyres Cheers Stuart Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/386862-world-time-attack-challenge-2012/page/11/#findComment-6373341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxheadmr Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 having a look at some of the UK cars they are well organised and fast.

PN-Mad Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Nein- what sav man said. From what I've heard/saw last year, its pretty much a Supertaxi chassis with the struts and stuff to make it eligible to compete. Plus a 4 speed! Should sound great down the main straight, but not be an outright contender.

Hank Scorpio Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Wow, would have assumed it'd be fasterb then 1:40 being a Super Taxi and all. A 4-Speed certainly sounds... well interesting.

handbrake Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 used slicks, best/cheapest way to get your shakedowns for mechanical gremlins out of the way prior to working on setup. we won't be at WTAC, won't get it all finished on time I'm afraid. Have opted to complete the build properly without crazy amounts of pressure and spend a good 10 months testing before the cyber GTR comes out. should be a great event this year!
