Tsukuba Race Prep (all Finished, Some Vids & Pics ) !

[giant]

Russ,

send me a link or such and i will post your 33 on the petrol heads forum here local interst in on the up i can tell you, never know who is lurcking on those things LOL.

have a set of part worns AVON 240 x 640 x 18 in good shape and just about got my stick fingers on some 285's for you still a work in progress but hopeful.

Yer just a new oil pump and bearings would you believe i must have caught it in time as they were still in reasonable shape. Oil pump was broken in two though! quick crank polish :-) and back together tomorrow night. Should last 2 more meeting until we get new engine done.

Car was much better in the few runs i got in, the track was really slippery ( sand ) on those runs but better all the same aiming for next wednesday evening to give her a test run.

And sadly yes Steve has created a bloody quick EVO here in fact about 100 of the bloody things, currently driving around in 560hp version he has built up for a client. Please have a word with him and tell him that bernard the bear is quite fast enough now :-).

And congrat's on the bub!

You will enjoy your time in Japan spent 4 months there with the soccer would cup in 2002. And thoughly enjoyed it.

Fly the flag mate, fly it high and fly it proud.

thanks on the tyres mate much appreciated. we broke a couple of oil pump gears, do you bounce off the limiter much or use two step launch from the start line and what rpm?? (we think thats what was breaking ours)

the new bub is great sleeping well too thankfully, hope to get to dubai next year maybe .

[Beer Baron]

russ, you realise if you flog the 33 troy is going kick you in the nuts...

such an awesome car. at least let's all have a few happy laps in it before you flog it.

[N1GTR]

Rent it for a few laps

Id fly to qld for that

[Beer Baron]

rent it? I was hoping mark and russ would pay me a little money for 'expenses' (clean underwear etc). then I'm happy to head up and have a steer.

[N1GTR]

lol, yeah ok, i like that idea better

[Angus Smart]

I wish you guys the best of luck in the next few days.

forget the poms and japs! please kick the yanks ass! in their wrx

[N1GTR]

Is that cosworth wrx going to be there? the one the mines r34 spanked?

[phunky_monkey]

The AVO one? If it was the AVO one, it got spanked hard because it was running on street tyres, among other things.

[EVO Cam]

All the best to you & Mark Russ, go get em

And if your heading over russ let me know might be able to get you some laps in a clapped out old R32 hotwheels car

[N1GTR]

The AVO one? If it was the AVO one, it got spanked hard because it was running on street tyres, among other things.

Dont know if thats the same one, but its blue, and got loads of "aero" on it, basically looks like shit to be honest

The race was in USA: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rlBcqIiNxY...feature=related

[Beer Baron]

just one and a bit more days before I fly over. Can't wait. Nismo Festival this weekend, then Tsukuba time attack, and the next weekend I'm going to a private track day at Fuji Speedway. Now that will be nice

don't forget to pack your woolies! hope you are primed for some serious drinking.

Yeah, that's a different one. Not sure if that will be there. Hopefully the AVO car is though.

Im so envious of you going on this trip!!!

[Beer Baron]

lol, don't worry the least I can do is take a shitload of pics I'll be taking the handy cam too, and my roll cage camera mount "just in case"

I'm even thinking I might trade up from my 400D to a 40D. will have to see how much better they really are I guess.

at the moment all I have is stress trying to get my sh1t sorted before I leave in 24 hours time, but I'm sure once I get on the plane and down that first asahi everything will be great
