Hey Brad

You can come and look at the BLACK series AMG. Actually anyone can look at this amazing car as it is owned by AMG MERC.

I am testing the AMG and GT2 for MOTOR and have been forced to do laps at the listed circuits in both of these cars.

Warren Luff is the usual Stig for MOTOR but is busy with Porsche doing drive days so I was next in line.

Both the GT2 and AMG are black. So I think we might get noticed driving around.

Private practice is at Oran Park GP this thursday. I am sure there will be a few people getting some laps in before SL 08.

Should be able to get on the circuit by 9.30am if you have a proper CAMS licence.

Depending on what cars turn up, there may be a couple of different sessions ie for open wheelers, sedans etc

is there anywhere i can see it today as i cant make it this Thursday :D I have a mate who would also be very interested in seeing it as well. Will it be available for viewing at an AMG dealer and if so which one??

Sorry for all the questions mate, just very very keen to get a look at one

Hey Brad

I don't think it will happen today as I have a pretty full schedule. I am not sure what is happening with the car once we have finished with it. I think MOTOR mag hand it back to AMG merc on monday. The deputy editor for the mag who is going to be with me for the next few days writing the story on the GT2 vs CLK 'Black' :D has also made the car available to himself for the rest of the weekend :)

I think the GT2 will smash the AMG to be honest. Pretty sure the AMG 0-100km is 4.2 and the GT2 is 3.6 seconds!!!

Can't wait to see what times they do around the circuits. I know it is off topic but I will keep you all posted.

What's the story with media accreditation for this event?

Look what you guys get up to when I am not looking. Beer Baron you are a card.

My money is on Russ to until I get my dog box and FRP doors and perspex windows and rack off side skirts and rear diffuser then might be on their door. I have not done many laps of GP once in 1984 in my RX3 with 165 wide road tyres would you believe and 1 min 35. Twice in the zed also had FM problem on one for the days and did a 1 40.67 in our loan car Ford Corsair 2.4 litre stock front wheel drive oil on the track.

Yes have aero improvements and suspension geometry changes in front end and lightened the zed a bit and yes pulled another 30rwkw plus out of her last week. BTW Keith Carling back in early 90's did a 40.9 Oran South in zed sports sedan. 1150kg with driver. BIG aero tube frame 800hp.

Imagine if I could fit R35 gtr motor with front diff in her??? I can't knock gtrs or use excuses as my car is full of gtr parts.

I missed sat as cams licence did not come through and set for Thursday if this lovely rain stops. GTR Jason you coming? I might not punt Russ and Mark off yet but will give you a go. Bozzo are you a definite for Thursday with those black monsters?

Hey I am a fair weather sailor.

BTW Apart from last Sat practice day missed, Russ & Mark and I were the only ones that turned up to every Circuit Battle, prior to the big Super Lap starting.

sounds like a song all the spectators were singing at the track about you ya clown.

fatz's wang is small

and he sucks the balls

he has no skill at all

I heard johnny is going to release it on LP. it's a catchy tune.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
