[Snowman]

Damn - I've been superceeded.

I'm at Calder so it doesn't concern me - but if people were thinking of trying to stay down at the Island overnight remember it is a long weekend so think about booking something now.

I'm definetly in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't wait.....

[Aaron34]

mmmm. Calder in one hand, and the Island in the other....mmm

Think I'll go to the Island .... C-Ya there Jack !!!

[Downforce]

[JAGR33]

What's on at Calder??

[Downforce]

Rally Masters!!

[JAGR33]

Of course!! Snowy can fly the SAU flag over there!!!!

[Snowman]

Hey - for that one weekend you can call me Cole Trickle.

I can go to the Island whenever but this is probably my one chance to go flat out in my car around the ThunderDome.

Still good to see the SAU boys at PI. Aaron we want a 1.45 and Jack into the 1.49's.

[Downforce]

:lol: Cole Trickle. Watch out for those corners on the Thunderdome Andrew!!

LOL...was talkign to my boss about this. He use to Crew Chief for an Auscar team...it seems that the oval isnt flat out...and you need brakes

I may come and watch, no money to run the R32

[phunky_monkey]

I'll be there, permitting nothing else screws up...

[ferni]

hahah "I'm dropping the hammer", "Your not dropping the HAMMER!"

[INASNT]

I hope someone buys my street tyres so I have my semi comps in time for this

If Adz or Geoff reads this, how much difference is there between driving on the semis and road tyres at PI???

I know there is about3-4 seconds per lap, but the feel of the car on the grippy rubber. Would you say easier, scarier? My gut feelign is i wouldnt use semis for the first time at PI....tryign to re-learnt he levels of grip on a fast track could end badly

[Aaron34]

I've got a better idea. I'll go for the 49s and Jack can go for the 45s.. That's getting into scary fast territory...

Cole, remember to go high when they spin in front of you and hold it pinned !!!

I'll be happy with a 49, stoked with a 48...

Aaron, you could do a lazy 45 i reckon, bring on the 44's!!!!!

Last time the boys played tyre swappy's at the Island it was five seconds all round with three drivers getting this increase almost immediatly.

I want to get 49's at the island before I add more power to my car. Aaron did you do a 49 bfore the upgrade?

[JAGR33]

Tyres make a huge difference, especially at a track like PI, its all about carrying the speed through the corners...

Scotsman - actually a 49 can be achievable with your setup, as i think Snowy got a 49 a while back with similar mods to yours... is that right Snowy??

[Snowman]

Yeah I only know one guy that got a 49 in a GTR with stock Turbo's. He must be a gun. Especially since it was like 10 or so laps in the 49's.

Aaron only got a 50 from memory.
