Weekdays are great for L2S practice days at EC.

I've been to 2 or 3, and there have been around a dozen cars at most. And the guys who did it were reasonable drivers in reasonable cars (myself excepted).

But there were a lot more race cars out there, as well as bikes, so you didn't get as much track time.

I'll be out at EC this Saturday for L2S practice since I can't make Friday (and some friends are going). If I get there and there are too many fooli sik cars I'll just go home, but otherwise it'll be nice to get some driving happening.

hmmmm... be watching this space... been wanting to get my car on the track for a while now... is an oil cooler essential? i dont wanna cok my fresh engine

Not essential, but worth while. I have been getting around it for 2/3 years by taking it easy for a few laps after flogging it for a few.

Looks like there is definatly some interest, and we discussed some options at our Committee meeting last weekend, looks like something will go ahead soonish.

Watch this space!

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
