Car handles the bumps on the fast bit at 7:45 well. Good setup lads. Lots of torque too it sounds like. Goin great guns!

Keep it up!

RB20 with Talk???? There is only one "Roy" that would believe that

Ben looked as good as anyone at Paloona yesterday.

Think Quinies Exit may have been mechanical rather than political

TT

What happened with Ben and Damo?!?! Dropped about a minute over The Sideling!? :(

Come on lads, you can make up the time through Longford! Time deductions for skids!?

FB says they had a fuel pump die.

All fixed now and back on pace!

You'd know if you hadn't become a Facebook outcast.

Apology accepted :P

And just quietly, how awesome is the old bugger Beable going! You've still got it Jeff! Cracking time up over Rossarden. Still hard to keep a good RB26 down :)

Keep up the great work everyone.

The lift pump started to fail at the morina start line, and got progressively worse. It was a fine line between loosing time, and melting the engine. We have replaced both pumps and are ready to go again

Beable knows the roads so well and his car! Does Beable do any other motorsport besides Targa Tas once a year?

Going excellent Ben! Keep up the good work and stay safe! So cool to see you in 2nd place under Pritchard..Keep those Porsches on there toes :)

Well, it's no Evo **cough **stroker but she goes alright!

Looking forward to your Paloona footage Benji, good stage that juan there!!

C'mon Benny Strokers drive Nissans too... I always said those RB24s would be a good thing.

In all seriousness BM - well done. You have been a quite achiever for some time. Enjoy your 15min - it is reward for your years of disappointment. Old fella still going OK too

    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
