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

He had a few moments when I was watching that 34.

Thanks Boz, its always good to get someone elses oppinion. Next timed day its your steer on slicks.

    • Chrome surrounds back on and polished up, no idea why some knob would prime a single piece 🙄
    • Well, in the same way that you can't tell any SUV from any manufacturer in any size category from any other one, "sports" coupes now all look identical. Stand back and squint your eyes and the Supra and the 400Z and the GR/BRZ things all look the same. I was just thinking last night, when sitting behind a Subaru CrossTrek, that I have no idea what it is, how it differs from an XV, or a Forester, or an Outback, or anything else Subaru offer, and I couldn't tell if it was supposed to be small, medium or large. I contrasted that to the good old days, where a HQ Kingswood had familial similarities to an LJ Torana, but there is no way that you could confuse them, and how a bit later, the HX Kinger and the concurrent Torana and the Gemini all had familial similarities, but you still could not confuse them. Ditto the ugly Fords and Chryslers of the era. But now, a RAV4 looks like a Kluger, looks like a Yaris/Cross/whatever they're calling those stupid f**king things, looks like every other Toyota that's not a Camry/Corolla sedan.
    • The Prelude doesn't look that bad without all that lens distortion in those pics. Makes it look disproportionate when it isn't. Actually I kind of liked it at the Osaka Auto Messe earlier this year. 
    • Pour in the highest octane, non-ethanol fuel you can get and see if the readout changes. If it's dead bang on 11% then I would question the sensor. Another quick test, just take it out and run normal (in an american accent) gas-o-line through it and see if the sampled ethanol or lack of changes.   United E85 here in the land of drop bears does vary a bit, I've had as high as E87 (could be water in their tanks too, who knows)
