benm Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Well I arrived at about 1pm, once again another half field of cars at Oran Park. Liz was the only Skyline with a few HSV's, WRX STi's, Merc AMG, BMW M3, Ferrari etc. It was a well run event, just half the drivers I was expecting. From the sessions I timed of you Liz they were all pretty much 58-61sec and very consistent (except for the laps with traffic). The session you did with the instructor he had you braking heaps better (harder) which was very noticable. I'd say with some decent rubber you'd be down into the 55-57's.

Duncan Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 ahh its ok the v8s are beatable just need a bit of practice. Liz....you need to bleed your brakes, easy and makes a big difference to consistency adn performance Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/117362-ian-luff-track-day-oran-park-sat-3rd-june/page/2/#findComment-2230154 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 yeah i just got a bit lazy that week. to be honest though, I expected to notice a difference.. but not as much as I did. I'll be changing brake fluid religiously between track days from now on! I'll get these v8's, one day!

benm Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 They werent far behind Liz, at a guess they were doing 60-65sec. A problem that 2 HSV's had (ute + monaro) were front brake pads (standard) were being destroyed by early afternoon. Coming into turn 1 they were just a shower of sparks out the front.
