Has anyone been to this raceway? 

Went yesterday in my stock 32 and had a blast. Wanted to see if anyone remembers their PB lap times!

I was there yesterday too in the R34 coupe that kept breaking down!

 

i only managed a 54.2, in the first session the cabin filled with smoke, thought it was a burnt plastic pipe, put some high temp tape on, missed the second session, third session only did one lap and the intercooler pipe came loose (forgot to tighten it when I out the car back together) then 4th session only got 3 laps before smoke again. 
 

have since learnt I was boiling the power steering fluid!!!

Oh bugger, was that the white one, that was parked near the fence?

 

I was in the white 32 gtr, bog stock . I only managed a 1.005. Really wanted to crack that 1 min mark. This is the first time i've been to a track and it was amazing! I do get motion sickness but, so i went out every 2nd session.

 

54.2 sounds like a damn good time! I think the red GTR in my group that was flying did a 52.

Yep parked near the fence where the paintball was. 
 

first time I went to Luddenham and what a cracker of a track!
 

I really want to go back and see what the car can do. I never got into a rhythm on Saturday, but I absolutely loved the layout!

i remember your car, looked mint! I really wanted a R32 but they are so rare now

I thought it was a good layout too, being a stocker, it helped me alot, not much straight :P

My small group is trying to organise a private day soon, if you are interested, i'm sure there will be space :)

Im heading there September 26th, but i need to install my power steering cooler before then. only managed 2 fast laps before it completely overheated and spilt on the exhaust. absolute pain in the a$$

Use synthetic fluid when you re-fill. Its got a higher boiling/flash point.

Just got some new track tyres so I want to try luddenham.
