Superlap Timeattack Is Ago!

[JAGR33]

Very interested in this, should be a great success..

Filling out form now but undecided in which class to enter...

I totally agree with djr81, street cars with Rcomp tyres would've been ideal, but I guess the rules are the rules!!!!

Now who will come second in open class????

[Beer Baron]

haha, join open class you pu55y jack! we both know you are fast enough to mix it with those guys.

and dave, if you are not driving the starlet let me have a crack in it! I am a terrible driver but an excellent talker. Tell us what times do you do in the starlet around OP GP? put some fear into these GTR drivers.

[Sydneykid]

there are two r35 gtr's already entered in street car class!!!

So rally rego is OK for Street Car Class?

Cheers

Why don't you make it a bit clearer: 'No Porsche car'

I can't think of any Major Car Manufacture that make rear engine 6 cyliner

[Sydneykid]

Why the rule banning Porsches from ClubSprint class ?

Is that what that rule is for

I thought it was to keep the Corvairs out

Cheers

yeah thats an strange one.

that part is actually open to interpretation, if its just no rear engine 6 cyclinder, what about the old Bettles they are rear engine flat 4. Ferrari F430, thats still pretty much rear engine, but its a v8 or the lambos, v10, v12 all rear engine but not 6 cyclinders.

lol learn something new everyday.

I also wouldn't mind seeing this evolve into proper grid start racing.

Wrong, Ferrari's and Lambo's have mid-mounted engines..

BB - My car fits all the requirements of the Clubman class, except the tyres, hence why I'd get you to source some RE01R's for me and actually have a chance at the pointy end....

But after some thinking I've decided to go open, never been on the track in my car with street tyres...

However it will be interesting since I probably won't have any time to do a practice day to get familiar with the track...

I think I've changed my mind again...

[Beer Baron]

if you want to try and do a practice day before hand you can share my loaner mate.

for sure on some good street rubber like maybe AD07s or the RE01Rs you would be up the pointy end of street class, but you may find on the semis you are still up the pointy end in open class too.

can't say I agree with that. if you want to go from this time attack style formula to door handle to door handle then you need to realise the changes.

cars would need to be log booked and have approved, welded in cages

drivers would need NC licences instead of L2S (cost goes from $100 a year to hundreds, and many more onerous requirements)

you would need proper nomex suits (min $600 worth of safety gear)

that is just the tip of it.

there are plenty of classes available if you want to do 'proper' circuit racing. this is a fun, cheap alternative. door handle to door handle means you need a budget of a least a few thousand per meet and a dedicated circuit car.

oh i know, but lets not argue about that, it at the back of the car no matter how you look at it. I'm just saying as an exmaple. It seems porche is singled out, dunno why though.

Once again sorry and any help will be appreciated

[Noddy]

Edited March 19, 2008 by Noddy

[PORTS]

This should be fun, street tyres or semis????

[Michele]

Help me!!! is there a class that my car will qualify for?

Its from a major manufacturer (its a March), its mid mount, engine is stock.

Can I come? purty please? Oh bugger! I'm pretty sure my tyres are R compound

[Duncan]

lol don't think there is much "semi" in those semi slicks.

[Michele]

oh hang on, the open says it has to be R compound, do mine count?

[Michele]

lol don't think there is much "semi" in those semi slicks.

Does that mean I have to get the pocket knife out and draw pretty patterns on the tyres?

Edit: I was being blind, I thought it said R's or Semi's - when its R Semi's.
