hey paul are you up and racing again??

yeah got a meet at WSID on the 16th Dec. best so far is 9.97 @ 139 MPH last 10 runs have all been within a 10th of a second. 60' best is a crazy 1.41.

but id trade everything ive done for a sub 1min at Tsukuba in a heartbeat.

Oh my god, that's f**kin TUFF! :) excellent driving... your downshifts are awesome to watch... what sort of gearset does the car have?

it's a ppg gearbox, and mark's bloody good at the changes, really shits me :ermm:

here is a vid of the pre race day when we were having bad handling issues, watch the end mark has a huge moment at about 180kays! hehe

1.41 is crazy, constant nine's is killer mate hats off to you, good to hear your still racing.

good luck on the 16th too!

As others have said, great effort. In my eyes the most impressive thing is the amount of work/time/effort you have put into the car getting it to where it is...Great to see some support by the likes of Hi-Octane etc...but the work you peboth personally put into the car!..not simply buying an uber built car. So envious that you guys have got to go through the build process yourselves. ;)

Top work and cant wait to see what happens to the other GTRs in the stable.

PS...if you ever tire of track stuff i will swap you my POS GTSt which is perfect for throwing sideways into tyre barriers for any of the GTRs :)

    • A quick google, and some E39 users have found pulling my sensor out/apart and cleaning it alleviates their issue. Then get the oil warning to go off, and once it is off (from the sensor saying it was unhappy) some find they can just unplug it and it is happy to just keep going now. Maybe give it a crack? If you can actually pull the sensor apart, hit it with some electrical contact cleaner.
    • Yep. In the E39 it's slightly different than the others. Honestly I'd just leave it but every time I drive the car it tells me oil is low and that just makes me check the dipstick. It is a BMW Afterall and it tries to expel it's own oil regularly.  Thankfully it's not like my E90 that has no dipstick at all so you just gotta trust it. 
    • Was that also a typo? $350?! Just typing "BMW oil level sensor" and prices start out a lot more sanely than $350. I'm guessing it's a sensor used in one low volume model only or something?
    • They kept the product number the same, so we "didn't pick it up when packing your order". If you packed the order, you clearly saw the box wasn't Hella...
    • Actually, the equivalent skyline part is both cheaper and simpler, maybe you should come back from the dark side?
