[Tosh]

not a worry Goran

and we chopped that Monaro!!!

[whytry]

yeah sorry bout that tosh, got a wee bit too carried away there chasing it down. but no where as bad as sunday where i was chasing a wrx + v8 auscar (that you can hire to race for a day) i think you would've needed earplugs lol hee heee.

on sunday i meet a fellow mr2 owner, asian (forgot his name, vimal introduced him to me) stock as a rock besides the semi-slicks, he too showed me some race lines very similar to what you've taught me and managed to drop my times considerably.

[Tosh]

Alwin Chong by any chance??

Black one with a T-Wing

good to see your times are dropping dude with those lines you'll have greater corner exit speeds and there wont be much need to go back to 2nd so you can keep the car in it's peak torque band coming out of corners

what have you got to now?

[whytry]

yeah that's it alwin top bloke just a shame his front left wheel bearing decided to let go which he wasn't too happy bout. i couldn't catch the bastard, except gain on him going in the corners. yeah was pretty much in 3rd in all the corners.

i ended up getting in the high 1:13s could've gotten even better but ran outta juice, went to top up in goulbourne then got a phone call from vimal saying not to bother coming back to the track as they ended up in closing it for street cars at 3:30pm man i was ticked off big time.

the freaky thing was that i wasn't pushing the car as hard as i usually do following alwin's lines which were nice and smooth, and the car had plenty more to give. ooohhh well as they say that's racing, now can't wait for the next meet.

[Tosh]

oh I bet you would be! that sucks man....

how are your brakes???? are you able to get on them hard yet or you still bedding them in?

I reckon you'll get into the 1:12's without too much trouble once your brakes are in and you can get on them hard and late!

[whytry]

brakes??? what brakes?.... nah just j/k they fine like brand new did their job on both days, they weren't 'smoking' as bad as they were on sat i guess using them hard then 'bedded' them in nice and good. yeah was 'stomping' on them nice and hard.

clutch on the other hand was giving up towards the end of the day.

[Tosh]

so are you getting on them hard and late???

because I noticed you were a bit hesitant to do that on Saturday

[whytry]

yeah getting there, the abs kicked in now and then.

[Tosh]

ahhh nice

should see the times start to come down now
