[Jamezilla]

The GTR-only petrol station

Nicest Winton day on record

It's cool to have your bonnet up

Golgo doing pretty well on street tyres

Not much competition from the other punters

The Q-Bar - with sleeping beauty in the passenger seat

Like I said - it's cool to have your bonnet up

[doxximus]

pfft, worst ricers ever!

looks like an awesome day, no way i would ever want to do that kind of thing with my lack of experiance

[Jamezilla]

Bah humbug to that Dox.

90% of my previous experience contains the words "Gran Turismo".

[adznight]

Ooooh Let me at it! Go the RWD Just hope I don't end up getting too owned by these GTR's!

[Roy]

ARGH!!!... i dont like being tormented...good to see/hear ppl enjoyed themselves and everyone made it thru the day without probs.... me runs off and focuses attention on PI

[GTRgeoff]

So what happened to the 80% max rule? Dammit.

[ferni]

hahah nice one boys, sounds like a good day, no fatalities?

[Daz]

Hey Matt how did you pull up, I was there again with the girls this time on Sun night. Also the crowd was like 95% women 5% guys

[Roy]

If you have an idea of lap times, the post here

Its not so much about who is fastest, its about getting a feel for what mods make the biggest difference in lap times

Ohh u Bitch!! why didnt u SMS me? U wanted the girls to yourself hey.. lol... I was soo wrecked on Sunday morning. oh well at least I got the brunette bar girl's number hahaha

[Snowman]

Troy - we didnt bother with any lap times. When you are forced to overtake 10-20 cars every lap there's no point even thinking about it.

[Daz]

Dammit if that brunette is the one I think it is she is HOT. What are you doing call her up already

[Scotsman]

Days like these make me so glad I went for a GTR.

meh anyone who needs 4wd on the track is cheating

Sounds like you guys had a fun day out!

Dox, don't worry about lack of experience, I'll guarantee everyone in this thread was a track n00b some time, just get out there, ask lots of questions, and give it a go.

Snowman, how's things looking for Dutton this week? Got thru scruitineering OK?

[Snowman]

Yeah Duncan - scruitineering was no problems (other than I forgot my CAMS license - oops)

Looking forwards to it big time now. Was happy with the Jackets and stuff - not so happy with the Porsche stickers they expect me to put on my car.

Also got the event manual so have a better idea what all the events entail now. They look like a lot of fun. Although the GTR is suddenly feeling very heavy after seeing some of the motokana's! LOL

[Duncan]

hahaha good old porsche stickers, we "accidently" put ours right under the rear bumper behind the back wheels

Don't worry too much about the motorkhanas, they are *very* open, we noticed this year there was heaps more space than last year's ones....all the porsche drivers must have complained.

And speaking of Porsche drivers, watch out for them in the queues, they push in all the time because they are more important than jp cars....don't take any sh1t from them

[Snowman]

How many were in you comp mate? I have bloody 27 of the bastards (field of 88 now). You'd think that would be enough coverage for them without me having to stick damn porsche stickers on my car.

Motokana's will be fun. We are thinking of putting a torque splitter in and going RWD for some just for fun!

[Duncan]

there was only 14 in NSW, about 20 ppl if you include co-drivers, but most porsche drivers don't have a friend to co drive with anyway......

Torque Split Controller would be great if you have one, we had a few wet events where cranking up front torque would have helped heaps. As for the khanas and RWD......well, if you've seen the video....really kills good tyres though, ours didn't really last the event, they only made it about half way thru day 2.....

[Snowman]

Interesting - we have 27 porka's entered - 16 are co-driver - 11 driver only. But some of the co-drivers are PAID Im sure. haha.

We were thinking of just going RWD on a couple of the tighter kana's. Plus we can rotate our wheels front to rear as they are identical to help ease the tyre load. We are still deciding however - have been told we will get better results if we just go smooth and easy rather than thrash the crap out of the car - and let the porkas make the mistakes and hit the hats etc.

I think we'll just make it up as we go along anyways. haha. Afterall my level of motokana experience = 0. Which is the same as my level of drag experience. And both of them are just below my level of track experience so this weekend is really about a good time!

[GTRgeoff]

As long as Snowy isn't dancing it will be good.

Sensible approach mate but that sort of ***** attitude won't get much TV time...right Duncan?
