Chris, you are welcome mate. Sorry I could not catch up with you again this afternoon. I was glad that you got George Miedecke in the car with you as well to give you some help.

I thought it was an awesome day for learning. Slippery as anything in the morning, and dry in the afternoon. I think you left just before the GT Falcon went into the wall coming onto the straight. An R34 GTR just tagged the wall trying to miss him. That pretty much finished the day.

Ah crap, thats no good at all :)

the GT - was it the yellow XY?

And which GTR....not the NUR......?

But yeah, John - loved it mate!! George did a top job too! Can you pass that on to him for me please mate?

Cheers!

Yep the yellow GT. And yes caused by the oil slick coming out of the back.

I was actually in the passenger with sam in her SP23 and the GT went past with oil coming out the back.I said to her, pull in so I can pull the GT in because somebody is going to crash.

I pulled into the pits and was waiting for him to come down the main straight so I could point the 'finger' at him .....and next boom. He was about 300 metres short of me!!!!!!

No it was the blue R34. Not much damage at all.

Brad, your car is awesome. Would love to see what times it would do on a clear track. Don't get me tempted :)

so...back to the discussion from page 6. what is the winning lap time going to be. I still say 1.10 or maybe 1.11

boz are you still betting 1.12? what is the quickest you have been around there in a skyline?

Well now that the exiges have entered..........I think they will do 11's or 12's. I think the quickest I have done is a 14, in a restricted GTR. I don't think any GTR will do a 10 or 11 unless they are on a slick. It does not matter how much power you have, it still has to go through 'R' compounds. My opinion anyway :)

I am pretty sure the quickest exige does a 9 on slicks.

So yes my money is on the exiges :D

I know it is on the Superlap web site somewhere, but for us dummies how about a link on the Home page that tells everyone who is running without searching for an obscure link somewhere in the text?

Cheers

Gary

    • New euro in the house for the wifey. Had to make sure it was good enough that I wouldn't mind driving it when needed. Introducing the 2021 JCW flamin mongrelryman. B48 2.0T 225kw 450nm 8spd AWD 0-100 in 5.1. 1/4 mile in the mid to high 13's. Not bad. It's a little animal on take off and zippy AF around town. She loves the thing and secretly so do I. Just got to pray to BMW Jesus that it doesn't do too many BMW things. Previous owner looked after it like a newborn. It's, I mean was absolutely unmarked and spotless.     360mm factory rotors with cooling ducts. Wonder if they'll stand up to track abuse...
    • It will happen, give it time. 馃
    • Decent result Greg, sounds tuff AF馃憤   When is the Whipple or procharger getting fitted?馃槈
    • Oh there's no way in hell I'm doing it to modern cars. This was on some lancer shit box decades ago with silly gauges that started beeping when the voltage was outside of operating range
    • Not just stop start. New modern cars with their stupid "smart" alternators. Even funnier is watching cars when you drop them into eco mode. A lot of them don't crank the alternator up to full charge for very long at all. EVs and how they charge their 12V lead acid battery is even worse! Also, you should never disconnect the battery, on a running car. The voltage spikes can break things. Basically while it's a "battery" it is also considered a "Capacitor" within the charging system, and helps to keep those spikes non existent. Yay for alternators being inductive.
