Cassbo Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I had a great time yesterday! First time on a track and DJ Brave said I got a 1.19 at some point. No offence to Wayne but I think my stock car on street tyres would have been a little slower than that, but regardless it will give me something to aim to beat for next time I have found out I need to learn how to heal toe, I gotta brake way early at the moment with how I shift... or snap the clutch out and get compression lock up. Something to think about for my up comming driver's course at EC I would love to see it as I have NFI how it sounds from the outside. IMO, your Soarer was the best sounding car that day What a bomb Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/224933-sau-trackday-wrap-up-thread/page/3/#findComment-3962513 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonkers Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I had a top day- thanks to EVERYONE involved in the organisation of the day. I was very impressed with the skills and attitude of all the drivers, no serious mishaps and reasonable times is something to be proud off.

msnismo Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Hey all, Finally home!! Thanks to all that made this day possible and to all the people that attended and competed as well as the spectators. Was a great bunch of people out this weekend and alot of fun was had by all by the looks of it. It just took Dave over an hour to clean all the mud off my car from the lil excursion into the mud he took If anyone got some action shots I would love to see them!! Just downloaded the lap timer.... Dave managed an 1:11.2 and I managed a 1:14.2... considering my diff is fooked (open wheeling) and spun one wheel around half the track (even after turning the boost down and on slicks), I'm extremely happy my first real outing on the track in two years!!! BRING ON THE NEXT ONE!!! p.s anyone got a 4WD system in development to bolt on to R33 Gtst's???? Puhlease!!!

RIKK GTR Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 was a good run in the last session with you , if u want awd why not get gts4 running gear, i managed a 111.06 on an aim laptimer (last session) with passenger. good day:^) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/224933-sau-trackday-wrap-up-thread/page/3/#findComment-3962734 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave was driving obviously!!! Was defintely good fun We made up heaps of time in braking but exit speed on the corners... not soooo good... lol Yeah its an idea, but guessing I might need a floor pan also to be cut and shut in..???? The new diff will solve alot of the issues (sitting in the garage, ran out of time ), also I need to get new suspension as the Teins are at the end of their lifetime... and they are only height adjustable.. Hopefully have the car a bit more sorted next time, just glad that the engine survived its first major test... 2 sessions in a row all day.... and no oil cooler!!! I hate to think what temps the oil reached Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/224933-sau-trackday-wrap-up-thread/page/3/#findComment-3962761 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIKK GTR Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 yeah i have too work on the brakes a bit, need too run some good fluid pedal was at the floor , the new dba's are warped allready, might give em a touch up on the machine, good effort with the gtst running pritty good, wonder how much quicker your exit speed will be with a good diff/ mat Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/224933-sau-trackday-wrap-up-thread/page/3/#findComment-3962881 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zilch* Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Well... Sounds like you guys had an awesome time! I swear I am not going to miss the next track day!!! Something always seems to come up, last time it was a blown turbo, this time it was crashing the car Third time's a charm right? When I think of all the money I've spent and the fact that it still hasn't seen the track it makes me want to cry... endrant. Good to see everyone had fun, wouldn't a cold day have been better for the car? Greg congrats on the fast times mate, sounds like you beat Chubbs Everyone else who knows me, I hope to see you all again soon with the new car Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/224933-sau-trackday-wrap-up-thread/page/3/#findComment-3962906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NISMO Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Hey All, What a day. I've always said i enjoy the SAU track days the most, and again I was right! Thanks to all the organisers and helpers on the day. You really made it run so smooth. The V35 held up really well, and looks like I'm down to somewhere in the 1:17/16's (hand timed) which I'm quite happy with considering I don't have one of those cheating turbo thingamajigs I did a high 1:18 in the second session with a 100kg passenger and only got quicker as the day went. Mostly because I took some "grow some balls" pills at lunch, and actually started braking where I should have been all along Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/224933-sau-trackday-wrap-up-thread/page/3/#findComment-3962939 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember who but one of the 32's in Group 4 was having massive brake fade all day also.... yeah, should run quite a bit better... the ass was all over the shop to say the least, only able to put the power down in a straight line! .. Boost was wound down... but we did have the brakes/camber sorted... Still haven't added the last 10psi to the tune yet either. Started out at 16psi in the beginning of the day, think it was down to 12psi by the end of day trying to get some exit speed All in all it was a great learning day for the car... and Daves dorifto skills !!!

Yea I have to agree,,,so many new drivers did very well. Thanks for the time in the passenger seat Simon,,,so nice and bloody warm,,,. Pity there's no real lap times,,,I'm thinking you would be in the top 6. Next time bring the Vee dub. Neil.
