Au contraire mon ami!!!

I got a sneek peek at the other groups times and i believe the RX7, Duncan and Ladybytes were the only 3 to crack sub 1:40..... but i am happy to be corrected!

Tuk Tuk (Mark) did a 1:36 in my car and pushed the garage cone about 6" but it stayed on its feet (I say that because I was told on the day if the hat stays up its okay).

My best time was a 1:45 I think, I was afraid for my car LOL

I was a bit suprised that a 1300cc toyota starlet with no mods, 60,000 k old tyres and standard worn suspension was as fast as some of the GTR's ;)

I think Turismo did a 1:47 in it. I am really glad I was not in the car fro that lap! a 1:47 in my gtst felt fast enough...

On the second course of the skidpad, he actually got the fastest time... beating the RX7 by about a second...

He did it twice, but screwed up the garage, and i told him to have another go, and he cracked it perfectly :)

Can i PLEASE give out style points next time? ;)

Turismo did some awesome driving in the Starlet and I agree with Nic, I'm glad I wasn't in the car with him LOL

How funny is that? Starlet takes out Skyline event hahahhahahaa*snort*hahahahahahaa

He should be proud ;)

hahahah you snorted ;)

When I was marshalling the gate at the back track - he came in so hot and with alot of speed and just locked up and then slid all crossed up, almost out of the gate! was freaking funny but the grin he had on his face was priceless!

hahaha.go turismo.

nice photos anthony.boys upload the videos..

the skidpan was treaturous.understeer city.

a few more go's at it i could have cracked it into the high 1:30's.i think with a better set of tyres i would definently be there.

next time though we should take a portable blower or a few extra large brooms to take the loose gravel off of the road.

Could be actually.... as far as i recall the Quickest went:

1. RX7 - Pfft not even a Nissan and not even road registered so doesnt count.... absolute weapon anyway....

2. White S15

3. 350Z - Drunkan 'I left 2nd gear on the back track'

4. Cefiro - Ahahah

5. R33 GTST - Chubbs 'I take 40 minutes to change 4 wheels'....

I do recall Ladybytes doing a 1:36 or something like that but took out a cone so got a 5sec penalty......

Im sure Adam will confirm the list... once he unloads his car LOL

mmm much as we might hate to hear it, the fastest times went to the best drivers, not necesarily the fastest cars. The top three above are all guys who seriously drive competively (Targa Tas, Dutton, etc.) and the fact Duncan did it in a stock 350Z tells you something. The fact Ando and Chubbs made it - OK so there is some luck involved (kidding - good driving job guys)

hey guys

as you can probably tell from my sig i was the white drift spec 31 with the red spoiler.

i had a really good time on sunday, the skidpan was a bit of fun, but its alot more fun without the cones.

altho the back track was heaps of fun, out of the 3 runs i did, 2 of them i was just having fun drifting as much as possible, those 2 corners just after the big dipper were heaps of fun sideways.

im pretty happy that the 1 grip lap i did i managed a 1:46, which i think is pretty good for a 100rwkw NA RB30 with pretty crappy tyres

im looking forward to the next one, and hopefully everyone will get even more runs, and it'll be great to try out the dry skidpan

only a 1:51......not enough runs to get use to the track and I can't afford decent tyres hahahaha

on the bright side, my newly bled brakes and brakepads worked wonders.....even if the tyres didn't want to stop.

dm your drifting around the back track was hilarious! top work

and the starlet and rx7 carried brilliant speed through the chicanes, the rx7 was running great tyres and suspension it sat beautifully. and I loved the starlet 4 wheels off the ground over the jump every time :thumbsup:

pfft to semi slicks they were road tyres on mine.....and as shaun will attest the brakes were literally on fire front and rear by the end of the run :D

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
