bring on the porsches i say!

They must have different Porsche's in QLD as down here a GT3 Carrera Cup will smash our times. One of our customers , John Webb, who races the new GT3 sequential job does a minute flat at Wakefield on full NEW slicks though.

they havent won any duttons yet and there have been quite a few entered including peter fitzgerald and the gemballa.

i think slicks add quite a bit of time also. i dont know of any car thats bettered a 1.05 on semi's at wakefield.

i still say bring them on

[Roy]

But Carrara Cup cars are not like the std GT3 we can go buy of Prosche...the Carrera Cup cars are V8 Supercar quick at a few tracks, and only a few seconds off at others

[Duncan]

zactly roy they are a very different kettle of fish to a road going porker.

wow

some nice times

and not even a 31 amongst them!!

[m&m]

Last year I got to go round as a passenger in a Porsche cup car at Philip Island.He was doing 1.45's,250kmh down the straight.I told him the speed and acceleration didnt overly impress me as I drove down in a 600hp GTR,but the braking was out of this world,nothing I had ever experienced before.It was his first time at the Island,and we did 6 laps,but the braking,oh the braking.

He said his Porsche was making about 400hp,was around 1200kg I think,but the braking.

good work guys. nice to see mark and pete showing our melbourne cousins how we do it in nsw. mark and pete thanks for the calls and texts, your love was felt even though i was down with brisby in meihico.

congrats giant on top honours, that is a nice effort! to say the least.

i am still sorry i couldnt make it as my liver has been getting a bit cheeky lately and could have used a good smashing to show him who's boss.

[giant]

i think all you nsw boys have a drinking problem!!

[Beer Baron]

just be thankfull for that. imagine how quick we could all be if we laid off the booze? lol.

[giant]

hehe, i'm just jealous,

i need a drinking problem

[Duncan]

exactly 400kg lighter makes all the difference in the workld to braking and mid corner grip, no doubt that the quick GTRs would have more power than most of the race cars I posted up. Probably only sports sedans with the 6litre chev 700hp = 530kw at the fly would have more power than a quick GTR

one day i gotta make a 4wd hr31

[Duncan]

a 4wd r31 with twn tubros, wishbone suspension and looks better?

Voila you have an r32

[fatz]

not owning a r31 i can give mark shit now as well

until tonight when i pick the wagon up

[2rismo]

Anyone know where I can pick up a 31 really cheap? Motor doesnt even have to be there.

Must be registered or registerable.

Adrian
