Yeah not a bad ride. Does 1:15 round Sandown and ran at Calder 11.02 straight off the street.

Kinda fun when yr in it too. Going round corners and heading down the straights is a new experience in this car, even for me

Exceptional work Benno.

PS. Both cover cars are FangArtists too

[nghiagero]

lolz is this guy on the forums? i wanna arrange a dyno tune with him along with 2 other skylines heheh

what is FangArtists????? saw it at Austo Salon opposite SAU

[Snowman]

Ben still wears womens underwear on his head!

If he was a real man he would have shown us his HUGE Wang in the photo-shoot. Biggest Wang in town.

Fangartists is a car club full of fun boys, fat controllers, mr mums, vino's, frauds, bean counters and other portugese chicken eating fiends.

And Snowballs and hybrid Skyline sh!tebox drivers with faulty cooler piping

The ave power output of the Fangartist cars would be about the 300+rwkw with 4 cars making over 500+rwkw.

Hmmmm 11.02 is that right or is that just Ben talking things down again, pretty sure he ran a high 10 at calder last year.....

[Leewah]

From what I remember, he said he was out on a bit of a cruise and while passing Calder decided to give it a run.

He had to borrow long sleeves from someone coz he was wearing a tshirt (as always).

He did his 11 and drove out and continued cruising.

lol. Yeah that was my mate Marks shirt, he's all of 50kg's so you could imagine what Ben looked like when the sleeves ended just past his elbows....You're right he was just out for a cruise and only made 3 passes then pissed off early. I'm pretty sure his last pass was into the tens and Calder was bloody slippery that night. I note in the speed article it says 11.00 so sounds like he has just rounded it off. As you know he doesn't really give a shit about the 1/4.

[Snowman]

I thought it was an 11 as well to be honest though Ben. At least I'm sure that's what he told us and what is on the FA 1/4 leaderboard.

[Leewah]

Yes he does!! He just says that coz I'm faster than he is :whip:

[benjiman74]

Cool, I'm not going to back my memory 100%.

I will say that after going for a very spirited run in this beast imo it could easily run a low 10 with good track conditions, it is even quicker than it looks on paper....best all round road reg car going around I reckon.

[Snowman]

Not going to argue with you last statement there mate.

If only I had $120K....

[benjiman74]

What about modded r34gtr + rex + a bit more = buy "King of the Ring"

[Snowman]

Well the rex aint mine and the "bit more" is needed for the upcoming new family addition!

But honestly I don't think I have the tackle to drive that car to it's potential anyway. Its been shown to do a 1.15 at Sandown and yet I'm still scaring the crap outta myself trying to catch your 1.23 mate! And thats going fast enough for me without going 8s faster! (BTW - I've got your time in my sights in a couple of weeks! lol)

You still got your car anyways mate? We should catch up for a beer or something soon!

[Roy]

Benjiman74, Sandown in 3 weeks and there will be a few cars trying to bring your 1:23 undone...you need to come and defend the crown:)

Oh thats a bit harsh leewah, my car has the best of everything

[R31Nismoid]

Not that you would ever use that amount, you cant even bring your car TOO a drag day, let alone race it.

you chicken, your just sacred of me now :Bang:

[benjiman74]

Congrats on the expansion of the family mate, I understand it would change your priorities. My R's moved on, something about my focus altering as well, fark are we getting that old...30 must be the #!

I'll come down to the next meet to catch up and watch you smash the 23 barrier!

Scotsman and Frank running as well?
