John, is it going to be back to back 10 min sessions all day. Its just that if i drive up from Melbourne i want to be sure to get plenty of track time...are you planning any 1/8 mile or go to Whoa?

Whats an estimate number of 10min sessions a driver will get? I wont talk it up as i wont be able to keep up with the Zed or any of the GTRs :D ...

(waits for John to read this)

What's happening on sunday? And what's this got to do with me?

You're the one that said that there's "no such thing as Z power" and that you have "never copped a whooping befor[e]"

So you've never driven at Wakefield before... How much circuit racing experience do you have? :D

Pffft have you seen the Zed lately? 2 fuel pumps hanging under near the diff, carbon fibre bits n pieces all over the place, talk about a heavy tank.... :headspin: John is probably at home right now getting high on V's :wassup:

Now Merli dont scare them off too hard. Sounds like beer talk though. It is only a zed after all. Blitz Why don't you show get your GTR out and waste the zed????

Sorry to hear Duncan won't be out there, can't wait though will be big. By the way 107.7 last at Wakefield.

We are currently doing lots of mods to it, things that will drop times. Motor not in the car yet but will be next week. By the way I need another mechanic, good one if anyone knows of any, email or call direct.

Roy you will get in plenty of ten minute sessions as it will be almost non stop all day, with a drift session in the middle for half an hour.

There is a case of Beer or V for any GTR or GTS-T that can beat the zed on the day, as well as a trophy. And a full admission on SAU and the ZEd forum that I got wooped by a Skyline. Even a handicap for tyres. Road tyres 2 secs semi slicks 1 sec. I will be running very second hand slicks.

I will be having a V early in the day ( my third in my life ) SHWING, so I don't want to here any excuses about this. I estimate half a second improve in every bottle. But double the dose NOT double the benefit unless it is drift contest. Yes Blitz it works on old guys too.

Now Merli dont scare them off too hard.

Wreckedhead has my full support :D As if I'd back any silly Zed over a GTR, no matter how many cheating additions you have on your boat :D

Let's hope John can get that motor in the zed, get it all wired up etc in time for this day. I haven't seen it for a 2 weeks but last time I did - it was on bits - major bits.

I've never done wakefield, are there any straights ??? I might come down and let the fat zed overtake (or lap) me just before the straight, then go past it on the straight for the photographers :D :D

does anyways have any pics of this ZED, casue just curious how it goes and what power it makes, not that im worried or anything but i used to have a zed and i spent about 10 grand on the motor and it was still a nugget, any videos or anything like that.

hey wreckhead, check the last HPI for its specs from about 12 months ago.

IMHO 107.7 is fairly quick. I reckon you will be around 1.14s, or if you haven't been on a circuit before I'm guessing you'll end up deeeep in kitty litter at turn 2....but you can always prove me wrong :rant:

B-man, its only got a little straight....you need to take it on at Eastern Creek

It goes better than your 10 grand nugget i'll bet :thumbsup:

it probably does go beter that my nugget, but that nugget is long gone, and king of the road had taken over, ive never actually raced my car on a curcuit befor, and i dont think its set up for racing casue of to much turbo lag, but its ok its all good and fun.

    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
