It's all good David,,,I like to keep to myself on race weekends. We had a fantastic weekend and great the 3 of us all took home trophies. Michele you are so correct,,,cams moved me 3 times last year!!!. Saturday arvo I had a long talk with the cams offical,,,you can bet the 2C rules will be changed and I'll end up there again. But for the moment cams say I'm 2A and thats that. I won my class both days and smashed the records on both as well. Saturday I lowered the record by 1.35 and Sunday by 1.01 with lots more time in the car. If and when they do move me I will make sure I beat those records as well,,,just to piss off one particular person. Neil.

I think you should harden up girl. Oh a little bruised knee hardly rates on the raceworx scale of injuries. Neil.

Ben,,,I love your thinking mate. Thats exactly the reason I bought the Radical. Last year I did almost every NSW state hillclimb,,,every state supersprint,,,5 trackdays,,,2 practice days and the cars still fine. I think the only part of owning her that may be a down side will be scaring the shit out of yourself. You will like it,,,trust me. R35 GTR's pfft,,,I'll show you a vid one day. I'd hazard to quess there would be maybe 6 Skylines on SAU that would give yours or my car a run for there money. Neil.

Ben,,,I love it!!!. But but it doesn't have a steering wheel,,,what are you gunna use 'vice grips"?. Neil.

Michele,,,I'm doing Bathurst and then State s/sprint at O/P. No Buladelah fun runs this year for me babes. This years about winning both champ classes or bending the car. Neil.

If a nice GTR isn't your bag what about something dirty. http://www.prodrive.com/carsforsale Neil.

If anybody is interested and has tons of spare cash check out powerplays web site. Just a click below. Neil.

Yea so did I,,,they were actually very good. Nothing like running through the whole field. Ha Ha check out the pic Mat took of bargy,,,he's driving with his eyes closed. Neil.

Tony,,,I really don't know much about which tyre you should use,,,but what I will tell you is very simple. If you want to go fast at hillclimbing you have to use the softest tyre you can find. Grip on cold tyres is what it's all about. It's no secret that all the libre/sports sedans run avon slicks,,,why,,,because there's no way you are going to get heat in the tyres,,,so the only other way to get grip is a softy. If I was using a Skyline for cllimbing and had a spare set of wheels I would buy a durometer and start testing tyre hardness. The only problem is they will end up being hillclimb tyres only. Neil.

Just a question,,,I'm a little interested in who has a shim kit (assortment) for adjusting valve clearances. I would be very interested in where you bought them and how much. Neil.

Thanks mate I love her,,,but after a year of pussy-footing around last year,,,it's game on very soon. This aero stuff is very interesting,,,but for us lot it's a black science. Heres a couple of things I've learnt owning the Radical. When I bought it it had no dive planes fitted,,,Dennis the previous owner said they did nothing,,,I fitted those smaller ones and noticed an immediate increase in front grip. Now before we conclude that Dennis can't drive or doesn't know what he's talking about do a search on youtube and you will find that is incorrect. The rear spoilers another interested one. At high speed hillclimbs I tend to start with max force and gradually straighen the spoiler as the day goes on but never straight. Maybe its the heat on the day but I always get quicker and quicker. On the slower ones a generally leave it close to max and go quicker as the day goes on. Supersprints are even more interesting,,,you would think at E/C I would need big downforce as I'm almost flat through T1 but I don't and usually have the spoiler flat. It's almost like I could remove it and It would make no difference. Did any of that make any sense,,,I'll bet not. If I was fitting a rear spoiler to any tintop I think I would find one that attaches to the 1/4 panels which would aleviate the need to reinforce the boot lid. Why carry the extra weight. Duncan and Marks nugget has it done this way and while I think it to small and gay this fitted method is fantastic. Neil.

I would think something like my dive planes would help as well. Neil.

Nah Jack the Radical is a great car to drive,,,proberly the best race car Ive ever driven. My old Capri sports sedan was by far more of a hand full. Neil.

Mate you can keep your itchy feet and you lot can go on trusting each other. Your all bloody crazy!!!. I'll stick with me making ALL my own decisions. Testicles,,,I've buckled the odd lady or two in my time,,,didn't see any lumps in their suits. Neil.

Personally after listening/watching Snowmans vid,,,I will never ever do rallying in either seat. You lot a bloody crazy. Roundy roundys for me. Did I say you lot a bloody crazy,,,OH I did so for the 3rd F***ing time "You lot are bloody CRAZY". Neil.

Yep that BSM car sure Has a front splitter. You can't run a big arse rear spoiler without doing the same to the front.

I'm only a PM away Neil.

Kel,,,did you say OH f**k!!!. Neil.

Thanks for the up-date mate. I was getting a bit worried about the princess. Neil.

So what is the web-site we can go and look at the results???. Neil.

Go Kelly,,,,kick arse girl. Neil.

No Moslers in Aust,,,oh yes there is. Neil.

Whats your next choice a bloody Mosler. Settle down tiger. Neil.

Actually you might want to have a look at the weather in melb. They are melting!!!. Marky my weekends are now boring,,,working on my car all alone. I have resorted to talking to myself. Neil.

I couldn't help but post that great pic up. Funny some folks have said to me there's something wrong with his brakes,,,I can assure everybody that that is way off. I fitted them and they are in perfect shape. If you track your GTR then these are the pads you should use. Neil.
