Hey there Brisby. FYI, you're one funny dude to be around. You cracked me up on the weekend.

Should I include a time I got in Franks car? If so, 1.31.1 around Winton in an R33GTR...

New Phillip Island time, 1:44.8

Oran Park time, 1:20.4

And, coolest of all, Nurgburgring, Nordschleife in a Golf GTI, 8:52....

We need to do a boys trip mate. How much fun would it be to have a few of us on there together!

[ferris bueller voice on] OOOOHHHHHH YEEEAAAHHHHHH [/ferris bueller voice off]

Definitely interested.

When is the best time of year (when it's not raining obviously) - I've put some sock money away as I can't drive a 997 GT3 for my 40th this year like I planned god dammit.

Doing this is one of those things on my "do it before I kark it" list.

Obviously summer is the best conditions BUT the track is apparently really packed at that time of the year (June/July). I reckon sometime around early May would be a good comprimise but I'd happily work with whenever. It'd struggle to be any worse than the conditions I had last time and I survived that.

Although around Xmas is obviously out as it will probably be covered in snow.

Hey everyone

i will have the lap times updated in the next few days so keep your eyes peeled on the first pages again.

If you have a time that qualifies please PM or post up the details and i will make sure i update them regularly :)

Cheers Ben

Haha it wasn't in the traffic on the fun day. That time was on the sprints on sunday. 12 on the track at a time.

Dane. You'll be back soon I hear so you'll be knocking me off soon! I really love the track and I'm sure there is still some time in it with my current setup. Can't wait to go back with a warmer track. It was freezing all day.

Marlin, what times does your mates E30 M3 lap Nordschleife in?

Sorry i missed your post earlier mate. I sent an email asking him and here's what came back;

"The car is not set up properly yet. When i bought the car, it had terrible suspension, with standard brakes and road tyres. I have done about 35 laps in the car in 2 days with that setup to get the feel of it, but on the last weekend (3 weeks ago), the oil pump packed up about 2/3 the way through the 3rd lap. I managed to save it without seizing it, so hopefully won't be too much to fix. Rebuild obviously, but hopefully rods and crank are ok. With that setup, the car would lap the Ring in about 9:20 mins or so on a clear run (never timed it though).

I now have Bilstein Group N suspension, AP Racing big brake kit, new rims and Kumho V700's ordered for it, plus going to fit a cage too as I'm at it. The car should be ready for the season next year, as I'm gonna be away anyway, there's no rush. I reckon the car will be good for about 8:20 ish for a full lap when finished, possibly quicker with a lot more experience on that track. You're gonna have to come over at some stage to see it, and drive it yourself. You'll love it!!"

    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
    • Please noooooooo 😭 As for wrap, no thank you mate, I've seen and used "carbon fibre" wrap before, and for these hard tops, they look soooo good when colour matched Like this >>>
    • That depends, someone might offer me a good price to resell it Mark... Ha ha ha!   I can get it wrapped in a really nice looking carbon fiber vynil if you want?
    • I ❤️ Matty I would like to thank Matty for going out his way in securing me a OEM NC detachable hard top for the NC Matty, your worth your weight in gold, and I cannot say how much I really appreciate your outstanding help I'll get it colour matched once I pick it up sometime in Dec-Jan 😁  
    • We have some genuine Japanese legally decommissioned car number plates now in stock 🙂 Add some legitimately obtained JDM style to your Skyline or other Japanese model, or simply as a garage/man cave decoration! About the 40mm hole: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure & Transport in Japan recognised the popularity of keeping decommissioned plates among car enthusiasts and came up with a method to "destroy" (or render them unusable for street use) while still retaining their collectable/usable value for display etc.  We have 40mm hole covers available to cover the hole nicely with a Sakura motif, which are also available in white in (very!) limited quantities, however they frequently sell out. Please let me know if you're wanting one or more of these and I'll check availability. The Sakura motif covers are more common. https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set-su-7515 https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-400mm-hole-cover *Please note that we can't obtain particular number or area name (eg: "Gunma 500 Fu ・86") if requested. All plates are provided as they become available after decommissioning.
