Didn't mario just break the previous drag record ? keep trying mario!!

[Tosh]

congratulations.

I wonder how his 33's going

[Guest Boxhead]

merli - is that the NZ record? coz the banner above start line says dragway NZ....

which would mean that mario still owns aussie record.

That is correct.

Is the car still RH9-spec or has it gone PROGTR like GTR700?

Thats a great pass, congratulations to the Heat Treatments team!

[Guest turbogtst]

Good to see that it is done in car with original weight and owner driver, not some cheque book racer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tosh]

here we go again............ mate, give it a rest!

[Guest turbogtst]

NO I am only stating facts!!!!!!

[Tosh]

I understand its anyones right to have their say and view their thoughts on matters,but I think its time that I set the record straight about mario and his involvement in HIS GTR700 project,Comments on the forum about cheque book racing etc.Its fair to say that Mario has paid for the project and owns the vehicle in full  

Its not fair to say that thats all his involment in the project is.  

Mario has been very heavily involved in the development of the vehicle .Componentry ,combinations,set up.Those who have been involved in a project of this caliber will undestand what its all about ,for those who havent I hope you understand when I say that ,building a vehicle with the potential that marios has  

is never as simple as FLEXING YOUR MASTERCARD.Who in their right mind will SELL you a combination that will ultimately challenge them.Mario spent most of his spare time reserching  

possible combinations and ultimatelly had the final say.Mario definately didnt just buy myself (CRD) or Andrej the driver.  

Its a full team effort to build and all involved have a purpose and their place. Understand this first then comment.

there's your prescious FACTS!!!

[GTS-t VSPEC]

I agree with RONIN, there is no need for snide comments.

I think the times both Reece and Mario have achieved are amazing. I just wonder what time they get without slicks and running Nitto's, like most do in Japan.

See'ya:burnout:

No reply from turbogtst..............................................as I thought

[Cubes]

I've mirror'd the mpg on my www site and slapped it in the gallery section.

Any problems if any one doesn't want it there for what ever reason let me know.

Congrats!!!!!!!

Another one for tha SKYLINES!!!!!!!

Both GTR700 And the heat preparations R32 deserve RESPECT!

The cars and their owners!

We all knw how hard it is to do up, develope, maintain and continue to progress, in our hobby we do it on a smaller scale to these guys they must have it 3 4 times harder, so much deserved respect!

Its one thing to be critical (and i only see it fitting to be critical if you are on or passed the person or thing you are criticising) and another to be jealous!

Once again a MAJOR CONGRATS!!!!!!

Its a step forward in our hobby/sport for our cars (Skylines)! :burnout:
