JAGR33 Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I did however get double the track time you did. 4 sort of dry laps compared to your 2... I think the new shocks are working a treat !! Imagine what a nice sunny day with warm track temps and bigger kahoonas could do to your times??? 1.6 seconds and you've pipped Frank.. By the way, love your signature...

Ant97GTR Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Was an interesting day if nothing else....sorry about those with dramas and I hope nothing was too serious with your beast archie. I had a good day despite the clutch giving up the ghost....did a PB of 1:50.3 and then repeated it the next session. I think most of the time was made up at turn 1 and southern loop...to be honest turn 1 scared the crap outta me the first time - missed the apex and that grass and ripple strip was coming up very fast. Luckily the left hand wheels just touched the ripple strip with no adverse effect. The second time I hit the apex and there was much more room on the exit Also had a bit of fun in the wetter session towards the end of the day and was going to go out again but figured it wasn't worth the tow home due to a busted clutch. Dammit the 49's are soooo close Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/207759-phillip-island-sat-29-march-club-cship-rnd-2/page/5/#findComment-3757409 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant97GTR Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Oh and I should have some in car footage within the week....not as good as last time with all the overtaking but you can see what line not to take through turn 1 at speed Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/207759-phillip-island-sat-29-march-club-cship-rnd-2/page/5/#findComment-3757410 Share on other sites More sharing options...
archie01 Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Was an interesting day if nothing else....sorry about those with dramas and I hope nothing was too serious with your beast archie Pity about the weather and the bad luck with the car. Only a very small window of opportunity where the track was good to get in some decent times so respect to those who managed to do PB's considering track temps/conditions. Well done to Aaron on the 44....f*kn fast!

Aaron34 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Thanks to Bec and all the other volunteers. It was bloody freezing in the morning. It's the first time I used the heater at a track day.. Nice and toasty in the car doing laps. I had to be careful not to dose off..

R32gts-t Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 the weather came in pretty quickly on saturday afternoon, there were some interesting moments on turn 3? (the almost 90 degree right hand corner) during the supersprint sessions, an hsv ran straight off with massive understeer and a couple of the rwd cars including the black s13 got all crossed up on the exit which made it entertaining, the 360 was going flat out even in the wet which was exciting to watch too... watching the yellow gt40 rep going flat out with the yellow evo chasing it was a cool battle too, props to the gt40 driver for belting the car all afternoon, that thing looked so cool... does anyone have info on the AVO r33, it looked awesome out there, Dean's s14 held together which was nice, although he had his hands full in the supersprint with the yellow/purple VS commodore on his tail, apparently he could see it bucking and lifting front wheels out of corners in his rear view mirror...

ferni Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 1.44 hmm Maybe if i just turn left at turn 1 and cut out southern loop all together...... so bloody fast Aaron. Car must be feeling pretty good. What are the new shocks? 1.50.3, so close Ant. That extra half second was bloody hard when i did it not long ago. But I don't think anyone would bet against a sub 50 out of you next time out as long as the conditions are good.

Roy Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Yeh the AVO car was having troubles in the morning. It seemed to be running better in the afternoon but was pretty wet. I dont think it got the chance to go any quicker then a 1:56 Ant may end up re-writing the book for a pretty std GTR. 1:50 for shcoks and some N1 turbos and semis is a huge feat. Especially with the slippiing clutch ! And those times would have topped the times of the Porsche day on Sunday. There were a few crs into the 40s, but most were high 50s or 2mins + Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/207759-phillip-island-sat-29-march-club-cship-rnd-2/page/5/#findComment-3758833 Share on other sites More sharing options...
