Yep Bozman aero mods coming along. We have been chopping up the side skirts and rear of the car making some real rack off side skirts and big rear diffuser. Sure to help, and designed with help of Carbon Artistry who has done our work for over 10 years and does lots of race car stuff. Also taken advice from an air craft engineer who is involved with the V8 Supercars.

We may not be the quickest on the day but will have the best aero of any car there and will look the part. Don't right us off either. We will definitely have the quickest zed there, he he.

Hey Jason I found another pic of your car.

Is that Kennedy? Please tell me you are going to superlap. Since Marcov can't make it you're the best chance I know of that could threaten Mark Berry.

hmm, I don't even think the berry/newman/hi octane GTR is the favourite. their time's only 2 sec faster than a full steel, full glass, 27mm restricted, crap tyred IPRA car :bunny:

Who's car would that be would be keen to check it out. Must be a bit of a weapon if its only that far behind with restrictors in place. As i would have thought that the Mark/Russ/Hi Octane car would have been the benchmark for track spec GTR's in oz as they seem to have the runs on the board. There are plenty of keyboard warriors out there but not to sure how many will back up there talk with times at the track ?. Should be an interesting event anyway sounds like there will be some tuff cars comeing out of the woodwork.

add to that Jeff and his crew at brandster have been developing 32 GTR race cars for years now and there is a lot of know how behind them. Fark, I've been in Jeffs garage at his work and there are enough GTR parts in there to sink a ship. many of them modified and/or developed or refined by those guys over the years. They have been one of the few real serious guys working at making a 32 GTR fast over race distance in the last 5 years. I would say Jeffs car with dave behind the wheel will be top 5 for sure and most likely top 3.

i fart in your general direction!

NO NO NO.

Lets get back to the car thing. Superlap to be exact.

I will re kick things along.

Zeds smack GTR.

    • Hell yeah. Glad to see it’s closer to the road. 
    • Thanks Brad Sheriff. I think he single handedly made the price of NEO heads rocket to the stratosphere.
    • Oh ok that makes so much sense. Thanks for clearing it up!
    • And these modern "environmentally friendly" EV vehicles also run on the same smoke! When the engine, wiring, or batteries let it escape it also stops running!
    • Yeah - I found the same information too.. 30% open is like 85% of flow etc. So it's probably going to be minor if not completely imperceptible. I also have a larger pod filter here, will swap that on and see if there's any difference. The hardest part is finding a place to uh, test this. It's quite noticable just how much having ducting to the otherwise completely open pod cools the intake temps down. It's better boxed, or shielded but driving for 30 seconds really makes it plummet to near ambient temperatures. I recall in the past when I was a RB land and had a nice flowing airbox -  - Then I took the lid off and put a pod there, and gained 9 psi of boost and about 60kw from the restriction I didn't know I had - with the controller at same duty cycle. However finding people using over the radiator intakes having similar KPA drops at WOT on built setups makes me think there restriction could be the exhaust or potentially the headers. Either way though, there's no real estate to play with and nothing that can realistically be done about it. The original dyno plot without the airbox, and the larger pod had a better curve. It was later I added the ducting and airbox, and a smaller pod to make it fit in there...
